About this episode
On episode 232 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by AwardsWatch TV Editor Tyler Doster to discuss NEON's latest film, Babes , and then dive into a conversation about the 2024 Emmy Race. Back at SXSW this year, Pamela Adlon's Babes premiered to glowing reviews, including Tyler's review that called it "the comedy of the year." Releasing in limited theaters this past weekend, Ryan and Tyler give their thoughts on the hilarious comedy starring the talented Ilana Glazer and Michelle Buteau. Once they are done talking about the film, Ryan and Tyler dive deep into the Emmy Race, as things are heating up since episode 226 when Tyler spoke with Erik about how things are going to look for the latest season. With Shōgun moving to the Drama Series categories, Baby Reindeer announcing itself in the Limited Series race, and shows like Hacks , The Sympathizer releasing their episodes, the Emmy season is looking to be one of the most head scratching yet exciting batch of nominees we've seen in a long time. The two editors go back and forth on the shows they are watch, the questions they have about the latest movements in the categories, and the impact a season like this could have on future Emmy seasons.
