Although hardly anyone watched it, including myself, Schitt's Creek hit the motherlode at the Emmy's. I'm feeling a bit guilty, I have CBC Gem, I've watched all of Kim's Convenience but not a single episode of Schitt's Creek.

ET is brain dead of course. Zendaya winning for Euphoria is not a surprise at all, she deserved it. She must still have a contractual obligation to Disney, playing the disposable gf to Peter Parker in the mediocre Spider Man: Far From Home.

I watched the first three or four episodes of Schitt's Creek when it first started.
I tried to give it a chance but just could not get into it.

Ditto. Couldn't get past the first couple of episodes and I did give it a chance since it's Canadian. The overwhelming sweep by this show is simply due to the lack of edgy or even decent comedy series.

I'm going to give it a chance out of respect for Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara.

As for Euphoria, they could have nominated all three leads, they all deserved to win.

The late Danny Aiello told his wife that he was doing a fight scene with Paul Newman in Fort Apache: The Bronx. His wife was horrified and pleaded, "don't hurt his eyes".

Similarly Andrea Bang has a gorgeous hypnotic face. Watch the face young fool, watch the face!

I love Kim's Convenience.

Schitt's Creek will have to wait until I'm done with The Boys. After Sheriff Lucas Hood in Banshee, Antony Starr took his time picking his next role. He's such an asshole as Homelander.

This just in: In spite of Disney getting a hockey facewash on Mulan, Marvel is going ahead with Shang Chi the Legend of the Ten Rings. Simu Liu has been pushing for this project. The film also stars Michele Yeaoh and Tony Chi of Infernal Affairs (The Departed) fame.

I watched it through a second time. The Big Basque as Nate was the most fascinating character. You are a great actor when you can turn a violent, manipulative sociopath, sympathetic.

interesting fact is he was literally picked up from the street and casted on this show

You're right, like Hunter Schaffer, Euphoria is Angus Cloud's first acting credit. Jacob Elordi (Nate) already has over a dozen credits and is in three upcoming films.

The Big Basque has star power.

I lasted the whole first season...I rather watch Kim's convenience...Or just rerun the Office and Silicon Valley...

I love Antony Starr. very underrated. Surprise this season 2 they casted. Aya Cash (you're the worst)...I find her very hot...
One TV series to start watching if you guys haven't already...

I tried watching Warrior but lost interest. Aya Cash isn't in the first season of The Boys, I'm five episodes in. I have a premonition that Homelander is going to do something totally despicable. Karl Urban is almost as under-rated as Lucas Hood.

Antony Starr is a God, he took multiple injuries making Banshee.They couldn't make another season, the actors were too banged up. I started watching Perfect Harmony for Geno Segers, for that show to survive he needs to be the lead. The Maori actor has an incredible voice.

Geno Segers plays a goat farmer in Perfect Harmony, he and the gorgeous Anna Camp have the hots for each other. The show has most themes right but the writing needs to be better.

You've got to be good to sing like David Clayton Thomas.

It received zero emmys until its final season, and then it scooped all of them

I started watching Schitt's Creek from the beginning. I love the show, characters are amazing and it's funny as hell. I suggest you give it a chance.
I need to revisit it as the above quote I have heard many times.

The Boys isn't a show you can binge, it's too intense. E6, S1 was off the wall, The Supes get their own reality tv show - a deranged version of Cops.

How times have changed. Sheriff Lucas Hood becomes a Supe Nazi and Chayton Littlefeather becomes a member of a church choir.

In other news: Get woke, go broke, CW will cease to exist by next summer.
