10 bucks says Black-ish Lemons episode wins the Emmy for best comedy...


In September 2017. Discuss.

I hope so. I just tweeted to the show, its writers and this episode's writer in particular that I hope it wins a zillion Emmys. In the past decade the networks have become the homely stepchildren of awards shows, with their precious HBO, Showtime and Netflix. But this script had as much power and heft as any Game of Transparent Breaking Bad Thrones on the premium channels. And no one had to get beheaded or raped to make it unforgettable.

I haven't seen that episode yet, but I was hoping the show would submit "Being Bow-Racial." That was the best episode I've seen so far.

That was a good one. I was a little puzzled by Rainbow's dislike of Junior's girlfriend, since her father, with whom she has a great relationship, is white. (The scene where the couple stroll in speaking Dothraki killed me.)
