Emmys: Game of Thrones and Veep shouldn't be the only shows on your radar
putting their concluding seasons in the race, this year’s Emmys certainly won’t be without a political dimension.the front-runner for outstanding drama series, is about absolute power corrupting absolutely, and the treachery and scheming of those who work in service of that power.the comedy favorite, is pretty much about the same thing, only somehow darker—a barbed and merciless and very realistic series that offers catharsis but little to no hope.
But they’re not the only shows in contention this year that do that. There are plenty of other politically tinged series that I would humbly implore the Television Academy to consider as Emmy-nomination season carries on. These series may be long shots—but at this particular juncture in the American experiment, I think it’s safe to say that crazier things have happened.
For the most #Resist-mad Emmy voter, I would suggest taking a look at, or re-assessing, or learning to appreciate even more than they already do,creators Michelle and Robert King. It’s a spin-off that reduces its predecessor’s heady stew of soap and seriousness down to an intensely concentrated, vital umami.
The series is so obsessed with the insanities of the Trump era that it’s sometimes hard to tell if watching it is healthy. It certainlyrighteous, and good, and enriching to dwell in its wild, furious, gripped-by-the-headlines energy—but maybe that’s just the TV equivalent of reading Twitter thread after Twitter thread about the latest horrible thing that’s come oozing out of Washington.is undeniably crisply staged and smartly acted.
