So I have only seen a handful of this years nominated series.  My favorite being The Handmaid’s Tale and Killing Eve.  Both intense drama’s.  There are others on this list I really want to see but haven’t had a chance to check out yet.  I did watch season two of Ozark but I didn’t think it was as good a story line as season one, however Jason Bateman does deserve a best actor nod, he was still really good.  (Although I loved him in the movie Game Night more last year!)  I am pleased to see Debra Messing get recognition for Will and Grace, she really is the Lucille Ball of our generation, a truly great physical comedian.  I did watch Antonio Banderas in Genius and he was pretty amazing (and rather unlikable) as Pablo Picasso.  So what are some of your favorite choices in the telly categories?
