Notes on the season: Vote in the last week; Emmy Streak through Will Ferrell; Does “succession” go back to production?

A chronicle of occasions and conversations on the bounty circuit.

Just as the start of 10 days for the final Emmy vote began literally on Friday at nine o’clock in the morning, neither one nor two unprecedented normal problems of Emmy magazine, the exclusive magazine sent to the 23,000 voting members of the Television Academy, came on par. Both. Full FYC ads that (including the deadline, as you can probably see) are still in this Emmy season merged through COVID, which really officially began with a green tone for FYC occasions in January, even though the Oscar season still skyrocketed around us. . Of course, in March, everything had been replaced and we entered the first season of virtual rewards, and now we’re in the final stretch. It’s so stretchy in this year literally weird that all the nominees for exhibitions presented on one of the five ceremonial nights of artistic arts (not the prime-time display of September 20) had to meet Friday’s deadline to record their victory speech, not knowing whether they actually won or not, and sent it to the screen manufacturers. I’m not sure if I was one of the nominees who would feel too smart about the uniform idea of not wasting it on the Internet.

Although many “winners” have already recorded their speeches, I don’t know if I’m like the other academy members or not yet. I’m probably not going to vote on the five systems and five drafting categories for which I’m eligible. vote until 10 p.m. PT deadline next Monday. The large volume of nominees (of a record 10,600 performances, 1.5% more than in 2019) is intimidating, no one can expect anyone to see them all, which means in the end that all those ad bombings can have an Effect and Load effect on all videos of many opportunities to listen to the nominees who still dominate the Internet (including the successful moment-of-the-line component of the nominees of our chances streamed live by Deadline Contfinishers Television). I still don’t know why the Academy chose to flood its members with two official Emmy magazines at the same time instead of offering them once a month, as is the norm, yet it only shows that there are dollars in abundance. and this Emmy season may be worth more than the Oscar Array season continues to emerge, even promises to do.

FERRELL WILL BECOME POWER TO TV PRODUCTION – EMMY SAYS YES

Among the missives on TV Acad last week was a press release revealing that, after the final verification of all the manufacturer’s credits, nothing less than Will Ferrell is at the wisest of the list of all the multiple Emmy nominees this year with 4, and that is more than any other user reached this year by generating categories only. With four nominations in total, he is tied with Daniel Levy, in the writing, directing and acting career, as well as a leading manufacturer for Schitt’s Creek, and Kerry Washington receives impressively 3 production mentions (Live In Front Of A Studio Audience, Little Fires, Everywhere American Son) as well as a lead actress in a nomination for a limited series/film. For Ferrell, the field is the time of the year in a row, he has had 4 names as a manufacturer, quite impressive, and in fact, he hasn’t gone unnoticed at the Emmys in at least one category since 2014. Even more appealing is that Ferrell, the highest known as an actor and comedian, was only once for his paintings in front of the camera and that was top two decades ago in 2001 when he was on Saturday Night Live. Of the 12 nominations last in prime time before this year, Ferrell won only once in Outstanding Variety Special (Live) as an accredited executive manufacturer with Live In Front Of A Studio Audience: All In The Family and The Jeffersons in which he also gave the impression in the most recent episode. His quartet of names in 2020 include Live in Front of a Studio Audience, as well as an EP in Dead to Me (outstanding comedy series), Succession (outstanding drama series) and Drunk History ( series of outstanding variety sketches), all too. as following his production partnership now disbanded with Adam McKay. In the best of all, Ferrell was nominated for a daytime Emmy in June for his remarkable special elegance writing for a special for Funny or Die’s The 2019 Rose Parade with Cord and Tish.

Interestingly, McKay is listed as with 3 Emmy nominations this season for those exhibitions (it wasn’t kept in Live in Front of a Studio Audience), but it’s not fully discussed in the Academy’s updated press release from several nominees (perhaps because they didn’t). I don’t want to check your contributions.) Jason Bateman, Jimmy Kimmel, Issa Rae and RuPaul are indexed with 3 nods each, now that the check is over, while several others have controlled two nominations, adding notables such as Mahershala Ali, Christina Applegate, Cate Blanchett, Linda Cardellini, Michael Douglas. Eugene Levy (with part of his son’s total), Sandra Oh, Wanda Sykes, Taika WaititiArray Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Lynn Shelton and a total group of Shark Tankers. Being “approved” as an eligible manufacturer would imply that the nominees who are now officially determined have made a significant contribution to the screens for which they are nominated, so with the largely invisible Emmy force of Ferrell, he has become a true TV manufacturer. with Midas’s key, or someone who gave his call to smart cars? On Emmy night, we’ll see which cards are distributed to this year’s most prolific manufacturer, at least in the call.

BRIAN COX ON THE START DATE OF THE SEASON “SUCCESSION”

Speaking of Ferrell, and his chances of maintaining his Sequence of Emmy nominations, at least as far as the HBO giant’s succession is concerned, I went to the source and asked Logan Roy himself when we could watch a season 3 of the series that earned 18 nominations. This year. Like almost everything else, it stopped dry due to production closures across the industry, it is only now falling again. SPOILER ALERT: And the last time we saw him at the end of Season 2, Kendall had just thrown Dad Logan under the bus, or indeed in this case under the boat. Will we ever know where this suspense is going? What about Season 3, and they still have a start date?

“No, we didn’t start it. I have to say that hbo is exceptional. We even have our own medical team now. We really have a team that provides smart medical advice, and you know, there have been so many variables, protocols that we’ve had to absorb. And that’s the procedure in which our wonderful manufacturer Scott Ferguson has been involved in the last few months, adding our glorious first assistant Christo Morse, and Pat Capone as well. program. “I mean everyone’s been worried, creating this dynamic, where we give and do our show, and you know, we’re moving on to doing our show, and I think we’re moving on to it before the end of the year. I think there’s a chance, but we’ll pass when it’s right. We’ll leave when it’s safe. We’ll happen when everything’s in place, and that’s what the team did and did, even as we speak, and it’s literally exciting that it’s happening, you know? It will be something very attractive that will affect us in a very normal way, I’m sure. “

Co-star Jeremy Strong, who won an Emmy over Cox in the Best Lead Actor category in a drama series, told me he was exhausted after all the trauma of the second season, but that he screamed for this longer (much longer) break to continue. . “You know, I think I’m excited about that, and I love and respect the other people we paint with, and I love and respect Brian, and that’s why I’m willing to go to war with him,” he laughed. to which Cox replied: “This is happening. It will happen.”

By the way, check out tonight’s Deadline Virtual House series about the succession where I’ll communicate with the nine, count them, nine Emmy-nominated actors in the series, adding Cox, Strong, the 3 nominees for the guest role (Cherry Jones, James Cromwell, Array Dame Harriet Walter) and 4 interim nominees (Sarah Snook, Kieran Culkin, Matthew Macfayden, Nicholas Braun). They will target me virtually from all over the world, adding London, Switzerland, Australia, New York, Vermont and all the points in between. Check it out at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. Pt.
