Our Oscar spidey senses are tingling — the nominations must be upon us (Also Across the Spiderverse is a lock, right?). Rather than take our best guesses now, the Chair will weigh in after the official nominations are announced. This year, Jack Quaid (yes, that’s Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid’s adorable offspring) and Zazie Beetz will make someone’s morning on Tuesday on all of ABC’s plethora of platforms (see the list of where to watch here).
Check back here for updates and all things Chair and Oscar related — after all, we’re with Moira on this:
OK Toto, we are not in Kansas anymore. Awards season is not just upon us, it has engulfed us. First the Globes, then the Critics Choice Awards, now the Emmys? Never have the first weeks of January been more chock full of glam, bad jokes, and long, overwrought telecasts. We are loving it.
Damn right
That is to say nothing of the coming week’s Oscar and BAFTA nominations, and the Grammy awards quickly on the horizon. There’s also that big important football game with (maybe) Taylor’s tall handsome boyfriend? Really, we are drowning the pop culture pomp.
Drenched and loving it
While the Chair is still on the mend, all we can say here at Notes from a Chair is that posts and podcasts are coming, and full recaps, roundups, hits and misses of this over-the-top awards season are most certainly upon us. For now, we’ll just sit back and delight in watching multi-millionaires cry over gold statues — and we will not apologize for it.
Tune into the Emmys tonight and check back here for more notes on the event. Succession and The Bear will most certainly be bringing home the gold, but will our beloved Jennifer Coolidge get her final prize for the role of a lifetime?
