MODERATORS
Lower Decks is so good, much deserved.
It’s great to see Trek shows, actors and EPs getting nominated, but this particular set of nominations are somewhat disquieting when we don’t see Picard picking up nominations from others.
It’s challenging to keep all these award nominations in context.
There are many nomination lists coming out at this time of year, but not are equally prestigious and some have been the subject of criticism and controversy over the composition of their boards and questions about inappropriate influence.
This one, the Hollywood Critics Association is often described as the most influenced by the local LA entertainment business relationships if I recall correctly. In 2022, many members resigned amid allegations of finances and voting .
Unfortunately, it’s not in the past as there are new reports that the President of the Association resigned in June citing a hostile, biased and dismissive work environment.
Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge of this matter. Informed and trenchant, posts like yours are why we’re all here. Kudos.
Thank you for posting this. That first article detailing some aspects of the HCA's history is a wild ride.
