Creative Arts Emmys 2021 Winners List – Deadline

Leave a comment

The first of three 2021 Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremonies is in the books, and Netflix’s The Queen’s Gambit has lapped the field with seven wins. The streamer also topped the network/platform field with 12 trophies.

Disney+’s The Mandalorian, NBC’s Saturday Night Live and FX’s Pose were next with three wins each, and Apple TV+’s Ted Lasso and Disney+’s WandaVision got two apiece. Disney+ finished the night with five wins, followed by HBO’s with four, with HBO’s sibling HBO Max yet to score its first Emmy win. FX and NBC scooped three trophies each. (Neither tally includes the pre-announced juried awards.)

This year’s second and third ceremonies set for 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. Sunday — all three will have limited audiences. An edited version of the Creative Arts Emmys will air at 8 p.m. Saturday, September 18.

Michael K. Williams went to therapy after ‘Lovecraft Country’

Leave a comment

The late actor Michael K. Williams opened up about entering therapy to address his struggles with drug abuse during one of his last interviews after filming HBO’s “Lovecraft Country.”

Just months before he was found dead of a suspected heroin overdose, Williams told syndicated TV talk-show host Tamron Hall that he sought mental health treatment after wrapping up the Emmy-nominated performance.

“I just started therapy, you know, and really taking that seriously and starting to unpack, like you said, the critic in my head and what and how that has affected my — my actions, my responses to certain situations, my relationships,” he said in a video clip posted to YouTube on Feb. 25.

“It was a very new process for me.”

Williams, who was promoting the movie “Body Brokers” — about a crooked drug-treatment center in Los Angeles — said filming it “quite frankly, made me sick to my stomach” and brought back memories of watching TV commercials for swanky rehab facilities “when I was crying myself to sleep and listening to BeBe and CeCe Winans.”

Williams also called his supporting role in the movie a “perfect example” of how “people often think that when a person puts down the drugs or the alcohol, that all the problems go away.”

“That couldn’t be further from the truth,” he said.

“Drugs and alcohol are not the problems, they’re merely symptoms of the problem. And once those things go away, the real work begins, you know…working on all the character defects, the moral compass — the skewed moral compass.”

Williams added: “Those are the things that need to be addressed. Those are the reasons we got high in the first place, and our inability to deal with life on life’s terms.”

In an October interview with Men’s Health magazine, Williams recalled “self-medicating” himself as a teen and attempting suicide at 17, saying, “I was lost. I was very awkward with the ladies. Drugs were there.”

“I just remember feeling like, ‘Eh, maybe the world will be better off without me.’ And I took a bottle of pills, woke up to my stomach being pumped,” he said.

In 2016, Wiliams also told National Public Radio’s “Fresh Air” program about struggling with drug addiction while playing his breakthrough role as sawed-off-shotgun-toting robber Omar Little on HBO’s “The Wire,” saying he didn’t “feel worthy” of the opportunity.

Friends, family and police mourn the death of Michael K. Williams.

“I could’ve used it as a tool, as a nurturing tool for myself. It could’ve been cathartic for me, [but] I decided to wear it as a Spider-Man suit and just fly around and go, ‘Whee! Look at me! I got web in my hands!’” he said.

And when his work on “The Wire” ended, Williams said, “I had zero tools, personally speaking, in how to deal with letting that go.”

“I wasn’t going around robbing people or anything stupid like that, but I definitely wore that dark energy that Omar was — he was a dark soul, a tortured soul — and I just … lived in that and that’s what people was attracted to…The lines got blurred,” he said.

The following year, Williams described himself to the Deadline website as “the wayward son,” adding, “Uncle Mike was the idiot with the drugs.”

But he also said that he used meditation and prayer to recover from addiction after “The Wire” and had adopted new “strategies” to keep from losing himself in the characters he portrayed.

“Number one, I keep a very good, solid team of people around me when I’m doing these dark roles. I call them my lasso. Tie a little lasso around my ankle and they’re keeping me up,” he said.

“I’m keeping good, healthy-minded people around and just protecting myself. Being responsible.”

Critics on ‘I May Destroy You’ and the Emmys 2021 Nominations

Leave a comment

The 2021 Primetime Emmy nominations were announced on Tuesday. James Poniewozik and Margaret Lyons, two television critics for The New York Times, conducted a brief conversation about the oddly persistent acclaim for “Emily in Paris,” whether “Hamilton” really needs any more awards and to what extent TV met the challenges of 2020.

JAMES PONIEWOZIK I guess I need to begin by congratulating “Emily in Paris,” which is clearly destined to be one of the most acclaimed series of the 2020s. And more seriously, actual congrats to “I May Destroy You,” which was shut out in the last Golden Globes nominations, so “Emily” can enjoy one more weird honor without being juxtaposed with that particular robbery.

Speaking of “weird,” it was obviously an odd year in TV. On the one hand the medium got a lot of shut-ins though quarantine; on the other, the Emmy-eligible schedule was hollowed out somewhat by Covid’s effect on production. And yet looking at the big categories, it was a fairly usual nominations list overall, continuing a lot of trends we’ve seen in recent years (strong limited series, Those Same Guys in variety talk, etc.). As usual I have my little list of surprises and dashed hopes, but what jumped out at you?

MARGARET LYONS What’s leaping out at me is that these nominations do reflect the year in television — which is to say a few bright spots but also a tremendous amount of inertia, “prestige” masquerading as actual excellence, and for me an overall sense of resignation more than elation. Again, there are wonderful shows and performances in here for sure! But when I was going through the list of eligible shows and performers, just the tonnage of shows that amounted to “well, they tried” seemed so much greater than the shows that sparked any kind of “oh, I hope they win!” vibe in me. I’m going to be daring and say: Not television’s best year. If you think “The Handmaid’s Tale” is among TV’s best shows right now, I don’t know what to tell you.

PONIEWOZIK One issue with “Handmaid’s” is that drama got weaker as limited series got stronger. I still think “The Crown” is TV’s poster child for competence over greatness — it’s solid and impeccably acted but it’s never going to stun you. Yet maybe it actually was last year’s best drama! I hoped but didn’t expect to see “P-Valley” recognized for a wild, audacious first season; I think “Pose” as a whole is an achievement but its last season was not its strongest. On the other hand, glad to see it get attention for acting, which is often what helped carry the show over on sheer passion.

And yet there were somehow eight drama nominees! I know there are a lot of drama series, but it’s odd to see that many shows listed and, for instance, only five in the creatively dominating limited-series category. That left room for the perfectly fun, swaggery “The Queen’s Gambit,” yet none for “Small Axe,” a genuine achievement — even if it was really five movies. Also: No Ethan Hawke for “The Good Lord Bird”? He did, like, 75 percent of all the acting on TV last year in that role.

LYONS No Ethan Hawke, no “It’s a Sin.” No “Small Axe” or “Fargo” in the major categories. On the reality side, no “Couples Therapy”? No “Alone”? I had a bunch of long-shot hopes, and at the top of that list was Michael Greyeyes for “Rutherford Falls.” Maybe next year!

I’m also bummed that “For All Mankind” was shut out everywhere, as was “Harley Quinn.” “Mythic Quest” was shut out of the major categories. At least the actual best television-qua-television of the year snagged a nomination: “Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A CBS Primetime Special” is up for hosted nonfiction series or special.

Join Times theater reporter Michael Paulson in conversation with Lin-Manuel Miranda, catch a performance from Shakespeare in the Park and more as we explore signs of hope in a changed city. For a year, the “Offstage” series has followed theater through a shutdown. Now we’re looking at its rebound.

PONIEWOZIK Also, and at risk of alienating our Broadway base: “Hamilton”? I love “Hamilton” like any red-blooded American theatergoer. But it seems an odd fit for the TV-movie category, even if it was shot very well for what turned out to be a TV premiere. It’s a filmed theatrical performance! It’s taking a lot of space in already-tight acting categories (which criminally shut out “The Underground Railroad”). Give Renée Elise Goldsberry a nomination instead for “Girls5Eva,” where she actually did television acting.

But in the Ted Lasso spirit of keeping it positive: Happy for “PEN15,” delighted that Jane Adams got her first nomination and let’s give the nonfiction series award to “City So Real,” possibly the best series of 2020, period.

LYONS I join you in celebration. Please join me in astonishment that “Girls5Eva” did not get a single nomination for its songs. “New York Lonely Boy” seemed destined for an Emmy to me, and I listen to “4 Stars” recreationally. I’m shocked.

PONIEWOZIK New York lonely boys don’t watch TV, they listen to podcasts.

Overall, these nominations are no better or worse than usual. But they don’t, maybe can’t, really capture what was special and weird about TV during the pandemic year. TV became a kind of virtual classroom, public square and movie multiplex. (So I guess there “Hamilton” makes sense.) Celebrating TV as a regular old TV season is the Emmys’ job, but that’s the least of what TV was last year. Here’s to a more boring year ahead, and more boring gripes a year from now!

LYONS Did television really do that this year? In the most catastrophic, confusing year of upheaval, TV viewers were largely “treated” to business as usual. And I get it, I do, and I know lots of viewers craved normalcy and comfort, and shows have long lead times, and plague art takes a long time to coalesce around a theme. But I’m looking forward to more adventurous, expansive, riskier and more probing shows this time next year. Congrats to Quibi on its eight nominations, though.

The 73rd annual ceremony will air on September 19 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on CBS and Paramount+, live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

The Television Academy will be recognizing programs that aired between June 1, 2020 to May 31, 2021. Unfortunately, some fan favorites — and former Emmy winners — are disqualified from the 73rd ceremony due to halted productions. This past year, the entertainment industry cut production in half in major production locations (New York City and Los Angeles) on account of the coronavirus pandemic.

The Television Academy announced on Monday that the second COVID-19 ceremony will host “a limited audience of nominees and their guests.”

ViacomCBS, CBS’s parent company, also announced that the network recruited from within the family, with Cedric the Entertainer as the host for the September 19 ceremony. Cedric stars in “The Neighborhood,” which airs Mondays on CBS and the fourth season is anticipated to premiere the Monday following the ceremony to kick off the network’s fall TV lineup.
