I have been understandably busy with many, many
other things in the last few weeks including watching several series that will
no doubt be nominated for the Emmys in a little more than two months' time. For
that reason when the Peabody nominations came out last week I neglected to cover
them when they took place.
But now I have some breathing room and it is well
past time to look at the Peabody Awards and the nominations that they've given
to TV last week. Like every other award show it mostly covers the period of the
previous year so we will be seeing some shows that have already passed us by.
But that doesn't mean we won't get to see some shows that might be recognized
for the year to come.
First the nominations for the year just past in
Entertainment. We see from 2025 Andor, The Rehearsal, Common Side Effects,
Forever, Adolescence, Dying For Sex and The Pitt. For the year ahead
of us we see Mo, Mr. Loverman, Heated Rivalry and Pluribus and Death
By Lightning
Heated Rivalry is, despite being a massive hit, ineligible for Emmys in America. The
Pitt will be contending this year as will Pluribus and possibly Death
by Lightning.
I should also mention that Jimmy Kimmel Live was
nominated for a Peabody award this year, which is of course what happens when using
some of the worst names towards your political opponents is considered a
profile in courage in some circles. Not mine, but some.
And that as they say is that. We've now come to
the official end of Emmy Watch Phase 2. The final phase will take place in May
and June as we wait for the announcement of the TCA, the Dorian TV awards and
the Astra nominations. Most of them will come in the month of May before we
enter the final stretch before the Emmy nominations themselves. Stay tuned those few who stick to this.
