Afternoon Tea: The Emmy nominations were announced and "Succession" received 27 nominations

By

 

The Emmy nominations were announced today. "Succession" received 27 nominations including Best Drama, Best Actress, and three of its actors have been nominated for Best Actor (including Brian Cox). Wowzers!

Following behind was "The Last of Us" with 24 nominations and "White Lotus" with 23. If you do drunk math it means these three shows dominated almost 75% of the nominations in major categories.

Meanwhile, at  the "Too Bad, Better Luck Next Time" corner of the cafeteria sits Selena Gomez and Steve Martin (Only Murders in the Building), Kevin Costner (Yellowstone), and Harrison Ford (1923, and Shrinking) who were all snubbed. 

Oh, and in case you're wondering if the Duke & Duchess of Netflix were nominated for their documentary...the envelope please: 

NOPE.

Not even for categories that would exist in my version of the Emmys: "Best Performance by Two Co-Dependents" or "Most Likely To Throw You Under a Bus".  I'd give them to "Succession".

Can you hear this painting like I can? Hone in on a conversation; what are they discussing? There's music playing; what does it sound like? There's an aroma in the air; what does it smell like? Who is your favorite guest? What's their name? What are they wearing? The little girl at the top of the stairs - what does she think of it all? Who are her parents? How long has she been there? Why is she there? How long until she's discovered and sent back to bed? Decades have passed; does she remember this night still? BTW, looking for Peckerwood's Weekly Lunocracy Post? It's  RIGHT HERE .

  Here we are: the shortest day of the year, the longest night. Nature is slowly but surely continuing its cycle of rebirth and we will see brighter days ahead. It's the perfect time to reflect on the past year and consider what kind of light you'd like to bring into your life. A time of hope and renewal. I wish you all a happy Solstice!

OPEN POST: Manor Music Monday With Barbara Cartland!

Are you off work yet? Are you ready to throw a swingin' party? That means making party music mixes, right? And, yes, you must throw in a WTF song in the middle of the mix just to mess with everyone. For example, say you're throwing a New Years Eve party with a bunch of cooler-than-cool jazz or house music tracks; in the middle if it, throw in this song . I guarantee everyone will squeal with delight. In fact, throwing that song into any mix is always a good move.  Want more ideas for WTF songs to drop into your mixes? DJ Li'l Scratch has got you covered. But first, let's pause for a moment. This is important. Why? Because this is the definition of beauty: The face: like a pale, English Cream Custard (which is just a bit overcooked). The jewelry: made from the finest diamonelles money can buy. The eyes: with their exquisite baby tarantula eyelashes (the eye shadow is their after-birth). I'm overcome, I can barely breathe. And, no, this is not RichBitch. She is, of c...
