Shrinking

Uh, so the, the connection with her is another one where I just, I just like seeing her in movies with him.

So what's the series that has Harrison Ford in it, the Shrinking? Shrinking.

Shrinking.

There's a lot of similarities between this concept and a series like Shrinking.

As far as like the way I like Shrinking, it seems like there's more chemistry, there's more – With the characters and stuff.

Yeah, there's more character development that seems a lot more engaging with something like that.

And I'm trying to decipher why this movie doesn't resonate with me like I hoped it would.

This would be last year's season, not the final season that we just got.

Hacks, fifth and final season, Margot's Got Money Troubles on Apple, Nobody Wants This on Netflix, Only Murders in the Building, Shrinking, and Widows Bay.

It seems likely that Widows Bay will end up cleaning up and winning with this debut season.

Widows Bay obviously premiered really close to the end of this Emmy eligibility period.

You know, in terms of Hacks, you know, getting a dub here with Widow's Bay, obviously a big threat to it in the, you know, lead comedy category.

I think Jean Smart winning one last time is probably the safest pick because in... comedy supporting actress, I actually think there's a lot of smoke going against Hannah Einbinder for Hacks, who's nominated once again, because Cato Flynn for Widow's Bay seems to have a lot of juice.

Also here you have Dale Dickey from Widow's Bay, Michelle Pfeiffer from Margot, Megan Stalter from Hacks, Janelle James from Abbott, and Jessica Williams from Shrinking.

I feel like it's Cato Flynn Here, I love Han Einbinder as Avon Hax, but I think there's just some Widows Bay momentum that you got to recognize here.

Name forgotten.

Only Murders in the Building, Shrinking, which I don't know how the show gets nominated.

I really like Shrinking, but it's a dirty passion I have for the program.

It's not worthy of talking about in mixed company.

And then finally, Widow's Bay.

Get out your filthy lucre.

Anyway, the final thing I wanted to talk about was...

This year, for, like, months leading into, like, Emmy conversation, everyone was looking at the TV show Shrinking, which is this mix of just silly hangout comedy mixed in with, like, just these sort of awkward moments of emotional weight, which I think always sort of bring down the rest of the program.

Okay, I'm going to start with just a series.

So the nominees for Outstanding Comedy Series are Abbott Elementary, The Bear, Hacks, Margo's Got Money Troubles, Nobody Wants This, Only Murders in the Building, Shrinking, and Widow's Bay.

So Karen, what is your prediction to win

this? Can we do a will win, should win, could win?

Yep.

Okay, let's move on to lead actor for comedy series.

The nominees are Yaha Abdul-Mateen II for Wonder Man, Steve Carell for Rooster, Matthew Rhys for Widow's Bay, Jason Segel for Shrinking, and Martin Short for Only Murders in the Building.

So Karen...

Jessica Williams as Miss Fine, and fine she is.

The Daily Show, Shrinking, and the movie Entercoactic.

I've talked about that on here.

Love that movie.

And then finally, Jared, you've never seen Ted Lasso? Bro, you want to smile a bunch and just feel good? Most of Ted Lasso will do that.

And if you like Ted Lasso and also want to possibly cry a little, but I would suggest Shrinking.

Also fantastic and probably one of my favorite shows.

Okay, cool.

I would like to watch Shrinking because it's Jason Segel and Han Solo.

Harrison Ford? No, no, no.

Han Solo.

And it's so heartfelt.

Did you ever watch Shrinking? It's a Bill

Lawrence show.

I know that.

interesting part.

Papa Toovey did not like it that well.

Jason Segel for Shrinking, which is a great, great show.

I really do like that.

They do like to talk about it.

Also, Shrinking.

Here's another show that shoots in LA, which I didn't know before looking into this.

Famous show about Philadelphia.
