The Emmys

I didn't watch but have it recorded and am hoping you all will recap it for me, plus show all the awesome dress/tux pics. Lol.

Dang it. We were rooting for Saul stuff.

Same. I am 100% positive that this is why they split the season into two halves. They knew what they were up against and wanted to double their award chances.

I knew Ted Lasso was going to win, but I was still rooting for What We Do in the Shadows.

The BCS stans were extremely nasty last night on Twitter. You'd think Lee Jung-jae winning Best Actor over Bob Odenkirk was a war crime.

Can we talk about the power of three amazing Black women winning their first Emmys last night? And Zendaya taking home her second for Euphoria.

Quinta Brunson - Best Writing in a Comedy Series for Abbott Elementary, a show she developed
Sheryl Lee Ralph - Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for Abbott Elementary. She had the BEST acceptance speech, IMO
Lizzo - Best Competition Series for Lizzo's Watch Out for the Black Grrrls. She is fucking fantastic.

Jimmy Kimmel yt man'd all over that stage when Quinta accepted her award. Black Twitter is not having it. 

In case you missed Sheryl Lee Ralph's speech, here you go:

( I got stuck in the box and can't get out)

Did you see the videos of her children absolutely losing their minds when she won? Made me tear up they were so happy.

I’m irate that Jimmy Kimmel took away from Quinta Brunson receiving her well deserved award. Get off the stage!

I was traveling for a couple of weeks and am now catching up on threads here - had seen nothing about the Emmys so have been down a rabbit hole and ended up on this wonderful Quinta Brunson / Seth Meyers interview: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGDCqNK9uUE

So angry. So tone deaf.
