I really think Blanchett might get her third. Seems like something the Academy would do. But it’ll be close.

Some of the top nominees:

Andrea Riseborough. Wow.

Amber Tamblyn (ex-Emily, GH) and her husband David Cross have supporting roles as a “warring couple” in Nicole Holofcener’s latest, You Hurt My Feelings, starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Tobias Menzies. It just premiered at Sundance and is getting good reviews. I like Holofcener’s movies a lot: https://deadline.com/2023/01/you-hurt-my-feelings-sundance-film-festival-review-julia-louis-dreyfus-shines-again-in-nicole-holofceners-witty-and-honest-comedy-1235237978/

Stretching the definition of a “soap star” here, but here’s Ron Carlivati (head writer of DAYS, GH, OLTL) and his interior-designer hubby giving a tour of their East Hampton home:

Oh wow. I thought there might be a possibility that Ana de Armas would double-dip with a Razzie and an Oscar nomination. I suppose she’s included in Worst Couple.

@Soapsuds Yikes at this Nishioka/Khachanov score: Nishioka only won TWO points in the second set.

Boy Meets Boy lol. That was epic.

Have they ever done an Ultimatum-type show with long-term gay couples who are divided over monogamy vs. opening up the relationship, and they test out life paired with other people who are seemingly more compatible? I’m blanking on if they’ve done one. One might attribute that to karma and burning all his bridges. And the ugly on the inside seeping out.

I would watch the sh!t out of a Fall of the House of Newman story. Hell, it may be the only way to make them interesting to me. They wouldn’t have the balls to really do it, though. They are coasting along on this vaguely aspirational idea of the Newmans from years ago. That is SO played out. They toyed with a Newman scandal surrounding Amanda’s grandfather, and of course it turned out to be a gigantic nothingburger, allowing Victor to just stroll in and save the day in a story he had no business being involved with. Ashland could have been a great opportunity to actually topple NE, but you never ever believed he was a true threat. This show has a very sitcom mentality where they feel we expect the heroes to be unscathed at the end. I would love to see a Bernie Madoff-type character wreak havoc on the town.

Ryota in Japan 🇯🇵
