In Los Angeles last night for the 70th time, the Emmy Awards, the most important tv awards. In addition to the gold statues, there were also engagement rings to pick it up.
Saturday Night Live comedians Colin Jost and Michael Che were the hosts of the evening, but were a diverse group, among them Ricky Martin, Titus Burgess, and RuPaul the ceremony open with a song and skit about diversity. “We celebrate tonight that the nominees are the most diverse ever. We have solved!’, it sounded optimistic.
For a from the air neergedaalde white heteroman, Andy Samberg, however, was no space on the stage. And finally had the colorful team, meanwhile, joined by a group of ‘every one’-dancers, decide that Hollywood is actually still a long way to go. An attempt to make it right, was later taken with a skit on ‘Reperation Emmy’s’ for black actors that never get their award were given.

Also the problem with sexual behaviour was geknipoogd: “This year the public is allowed to drink at their chairs. Because what Hollywood needs at this time is people who have their inhibitions to lose werkevenement’, according to the hosts.
Still a challenge at the moment for the sector, at least for the classic tv channels: streaming services such as Netflix, which countless own productions. ‘How does Netflix on all that money? It is $ 9 per month, and everyone I know is sharing an account. Netflix is like that Instagram-a model that is always in Dubai and you are thinking: okay, but what do you do really?’
That Netflix is a threat to the classic tv shows this year for the first time really in the awards: the streaming service went with the most nominations will walk away and won with ‘The Crown’ and ‘Black Mirror’.
Also competitor Amazon fell in the prices. ‘The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel was the best comic series named, Amy Sherman Palladino won the first woman ever to both the prize for best director as best script of a comedy series, Rachel Brosnahan won best female lead in a comedy series, and the award for best actress in a supporting role in a comedy series was redeemed by Alex Borstein, in a silver dress. Borstein, who is also a statuette for her voice in ‘Family Guy’, revealed that it was actually her wedding dress was. “This is from twenty years ago. The marriage didn’t last, but the dress, though, and I wanted a new life, so it is now my Emmy dress.’
A little bit sad? Not so romantic? That was more than compensated by Oscar-director Glenn Weiss, who an Emmy for best directing of a show received. Began his bedankingsspeech like thirteen in a dozen with an, admittedly, touching tribute to his recently deceased mother – then was suddenly very special and heart-warming: “You are the sun in my life. You wonder why I don’t like my girlfriend to call? Because I made you my wife would call.’ Followed by a close-up of a surprised friend, who yet, soon yes nods, the stage by stepping on it and a proposal with all the trimmings. The engagement ring was the wedding ring of his mother.
