(14,556 posts)That's when it finally dawned on me that these Award Shows are
not of my World.
I own 11 Elvis Costello i.e. albums and 3 of The Cars albums.
I have never met a soul who owns a Taste of Honey album.

(9,124 posts)A golden globe for over acting perhaps. For my circle this is good news. A friend was cast in Boss and while one of the more regular working actors in Chicago, this will have just made 30 years of damn had work worth it for that belligerent fuck.

(14,061 posts)I was hugely disappointed that Buscemi didn't win.
And speaking of Boardwalk Empire, I'm constantly puzzled as to why neither Michael Pitt nor Michael Shannon ever get nominated. I'm also puzzled as to why Kelly McDonald keeps getting nominated, but not surprised when she loses out to more worthy talent.

(59,440 posts)Michael Pitt was completely overlooked but he and Buscemi had some great scenes together.
AngryOldDem
(14,061 posts)Pitt's last episodes were just brilliant.
I just got the DVD set of the first season, and it is amazing to see how all the actors grew in their portrayals of their characters over just one season. Truly talented cast.
