So tired of her winning an emmy every damn year


I mean damn is she blowing someone who works there? Shes like the Meryl Streep of awards for tv.

Not saying shes not a good actress but fuck surely theres someone better than her occasionally. But every year when i see her nominated i'm like "Yep shes winning again....". No matter how many amazing actresses that are clearly better than her and deserve it that year, she always takes it.

Do you watch Veep though?

reply

I've seen it yeah, shes good but all i mean is shes not on Bryan Cranston levels where you clearly think without a doubt she should win every year.

I can tell it's really ruining your life.

reply

Yeah it sure is, can't even sleep at night.

reply

There's a good solution for that. Watch a couple episodes of The Talk.

Ms. Streep has won an Oscar just once in the last 34 years. Lotsa nominations though.(17 noms, 3 wins since her first nom in 1979)

reply

Well, she pretty much only star in Oscar bait movies, so that's not surprising.

reply

Oh totally. It is money that talks, she is worth hundreds of millions apparently so behind the scenes she is paying for her Emmy wins, I have absolutely no doubt about it--or yeah, sexual favors.

Also Veep's got nothing on Silicon Valley, and yet Veep's winning all the awards last night.

She is heir to the Louis Dreyfus Company, which was worth 3.6 billion $$ in 2006.

That made it really hard for her to succeed though, given how much more difficult life is for billionaires.
