HODOR!!!!

GAME OF THRONES

sandybrook said...

The only one of these I watch is Westworld and I don't think it's awards worthy.

Tim W. said...

Americans and Crown are indeed 1 and 2!

Hanniam said...

Im going with The Crown for my personal choice. I enjoyed Stranger Things more, but The Crown had better performances across the board.

That said, Handmaid will probably take the win.

HeatherBee said...

Is there room for more in your boat, Sandy? Because I’d like to join you there!

HeatherBee said...

I’d love to watch The Crown but I fall asleep every time I try to watch it.

Game of Thrones

Unknown said...

Stranger Things does not belong there. It’s so overrated. It feeds off of our nostalgia but when you take that part away, it’s simply good but nothing incredible. Molly Bobby Brown is also incredibly overrated and I think the other kids on the show are better. I think the new show on Showtime, The Chi should be in that list instead.

Game Of Thrones is the best on that list. Westworld is good but they try too hard to confuse the audience with the timelines which is a very cheap way to make the show seem more intelligent. Handmaid’s Tale is good too but at times can drag. This is Us is a good family show. Don’t watch the others. But Game of Thrones easily has the wittiest writing of the others I’ve named so it goes to them.

I can rent a yacht down the street if there's enough people.

Ophelia said...

I enjoyed Stranger Things the most out of these but I don't think the show itself is award worthy - just Will Byers.

Game of Thrones should win - especially now that it's off the books & into original territory

Unknown said...

Westworld season 2 really sucked imho. The Americans for my dollar was the best show on TV last year.

Jon said...

I've never seen a single episode of any of these. I prefer Acorn TV. The shows are so superior to anything in 'murica.

bleacherbunny said...

Handmaids Tale or GOT FTW!

Jennifer said...

The only one of these i have watched is The Crown, and I love it! That's why the blinds about Matt Smith being such an a hole hurt me. I'm worried that season three can't possibly be as good with the new lineup. Claire Foy is perfect as the Queen!

Anything other than that emotional pap This is Us.

GoT

IanPhlegming said...

GoT was flawed and kinda stupid but pretty epic and I was rapt every time it aired. Only afterwards did I question the ridiculousness of it. So tough to say.

ST was just as good as season one until the final episode. Too big, too "action movie." Still a great television experience, however.

I've never seen "The Americans," and I know I should. It's been beloved for a while, I bet it wins for its swan song season.

SnarkyAngel said...

GOT!

Brayson87 said...

GoT definitely, but it's hardly fair with their budget and all the seasons behind them.

Alice H. said...

The Americans. It's about time.

The Americans

Super Comic Fun Time! said...

The only show I've seen on that list is Stranger Things and it wasn't very good.

I'll go with the Crown because my wife really likes it and with all the royal stuff in the news over the last year, the awards people will probably want to show they are paying attention and that they know royals exist.

AListDiva said...

I'm sure GOT will win next year, as it will be their last season. This Is Us is good, but too sappy. I thought season 2 of Stranger Things was phenomenal, and I hope they win!

plot said...

The Americans, which has been excellent for years and unrecognized.

The Handmaid's Tale has fallen off the rails. That writing doesn't need to be awarded anything.

herbert arnold said...

the americans. some of the best actual acting on tv in many years.

Pen-a-lope said...

Always GOT but the Crown runs a close second. Anne with a E is my newest guilty pleasure.

Brenda said...

Queen Sugar too

WickedBee said...

Tossing my vote here!

Game of Thrones

Kno Won said...

Olivia Colman is a brilliant actress, though.
I’m looking forward to her stepping into Older Elizabeth.

The only tv I watch is from the 1970s.
If you want a fabulous TV drama, watch Peter Falk drive up to a crime scene in his battered Peuguot and solve a crime on Columbo in his tattered raincoat.
with Emmy winning guest stars like Robert Culp, Jack Cassidy, Patrick McGoohan, Ruth Gordon, and Leonard Nimoy, and Donald Pleasance.

His worst episode beats the 'best' of anything today.

GoT

Stupidpervs said...

I have not seen any of them

WBotW said...

Stranger Things or Game of Thrones
This is Us is the most overrated bunk on tv right now imho.

The Handmaids Tale

Robynsing said...

Handmade's Tale HAND'S DOWN (No. 1)

parissucksliterally said...

I would LOVE for it to go to The Americans, but it will go to The Handmaid's Tale - which is also a phenomenal show.

Unknown said...

Westworld

Paul Saint John said...

Game of Thrones. And it's not that good actually. There's nothing but dreck on tv.

MY CIGARS HAVE GONE MOULDY said...

The Ozark

Madame Debauchery said...

GOT for the win. Handmaids tale second.

Oh and Peaky F*ckin Blinders for my fave watch.

Boo said...

Game of Thrones

Ronaldus Magnus said...

The Handmaid's Tale with GOT at an extremely close second. Too bad for Westworld though...the first season was captivating but the second was much to choppy for a comprehensible story.

WRAL Weather starting Greg Fischel. He's been living the Drama of Florence. Although I guess this is more of a miniseries.

As to the nominated shows.... This Is Us.

ihavenocomment said...

The Americans.
What a f+cking fantastic show.
I'm going to miss it.

The fact that there's no Twin Peaks is a joke.
