The 69th Annual Emmy Awards-Winners List

After seeing the list of nominees for this years Emmy Awards, I was extremely excited because most actors and shows I loved were nominated. The ceremony held Sunday September 17 at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles with The Late Show‘s Stephen Colbert as the host. NB,’s Saturday Night Live and HBO’s Westworld led with 22 nominations each, FX’s FEUD: Bette and Joan and Netflix’s Stranger Things, follows closely with 18 nods each. Veep has a total of 17 nominations while Big Little Lies and Fargo have 16 each. HBO is the highest nominated network with 110 nods followed by Netflix with 91 and NBC with 60. FX has a total of 54 nominations while ABC has 34. I'm a huge fan of The Handmaids Tale on Hulu so I was really glad they took home the award for Outstanding Drama Series. Elisabeth Moss who has quickly become one actress I really love. snagged the award for Lead Actress In a Drama Series. Julia Louis-Dreyfus won Best Actress in a Comedy Series for the 6th time in a row and this is the first time anyone has won the award as many times for the same role. Sterling K.

SUITS: Season 6 finale

        The 6th season of suits has been quite an emotional one with Mike's would be wedding with Rachel, his going to Prison and Rachel's death row case. Death row cases can get really sad especially if the suspect is innocent which was the case of Leonard Bailey (Glenn Plummer) who was accused of murdering two people. After staying behind bars for 12 years, Leonard Bailey was finally exonerated with the help of Rachel and Jessica (Gina Torres). During this episode, a major character said goodbye to the show. Gina Torres decided to leave Suits to film another TV Show 'Catch' and it was quite emotional.

Review- Who's The Boss (2020)

Directed by Chinaza Onuzo, "Who's The Boss" follows Liah (Sharon Ooja) , an Advertising Executive who struggles to climb the cooperate ladder while juggling her mean and vindictive boss Hauwa (Funke Akindele- Bello). She takes the advice of her best friend Jumoke (Ini Dima-Okojie) and enlists her friend Lekan (Blossom Chukwujekwu), a known play boy into posing as her boss but ends up falling for him.

After watching the first teaser for the Inkblot comedy, I was a little intrigued and looked forward to seeing how they were going to pull it off but sadly, it fell short in more ways than one. The biggest issue I had was the lead character and the actress cast to play it. Ooja has been typecast and I thought seeing her as the lead would show us a different side to the actress but my perception of her acting skills are worse than before. There's nothing worth remembering about this story and her acting did nothing to el

Deepwater Horizon

Theatrical Release Poster Deepwater Horizon is a true life movie based on the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig on April 20, 2010 in the Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana. The movie starts with us meeting Mike Williams (Mark Wahlberg), his wife Felicia (Kate Hudson) and their daughter. We also meet Andrea Fleytas (Gina Rodriguez) as she's dropped off at the heliport on a bike by her friend. Mike and Andrea meet one of their bosses, Mr. Jimmy (Kurt Russell) at the Heliport. They all board the helicopter and are taken to Deepwater Horizon. At the rig, there's a lot of talk and conversation about the condition of the rig. Caleb Holloway (Dylan O'Brien) and Mike Williams (Mark Wahlberg)  The BP executive, Donald Vidrine (John Malkovich) doesn't support the tests ordered by Mr. Jimmy and some of the employees including Jason Anderson (Ethan Suplee), Caleb Holloway (Dylan O'Brien) and Andrea Fleytas (Gina Rodriguez) are also very concerned about
