On The Emmy Trail With ‘Hacks’, ‘Samurai’ And ‘Daily Show’s MAGA Whisperer Jordan Klepper; Plus Saying Goodbye To A Hollywood Great – Notes On The Season
Notes On The Season column talks Emmy voting & on trail with 'Hacks', 'Blue Eye Samurai' & 'Daily Show's' Jordan Klepper; plus farewell Gena Rowlands
On Monday night at Matsuhisa Japanese restaurant on La Cienega, Netflix threw a small dinner their breakout Animated series, Blue Eye Samurai, with select press and the creative team including creators, EPs and writers Michael Green and Amber Noizumi, plus their Emmy nominated Sound Editor Paulette Lifton. I always thought she should have won the Best Actress Oscar for her seminal and haunting turn in 1974’s A Woman Under The Influence but alas she lost to Ellen Burstyn that year for Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore ( but did take a Golden Globe for it, one her 8 GG nominations and 2 wins). Just on Wednesday, the day she died, I posted a new episode of my Deadline video series Behind The Lens in which my guest Mark Duplass extensively tells of his idolization of John Cassavetes and all those independent films that team was able to make outside the Hollywood system.
