I didn’t vote for any telly actors. Fear I have misunderstood the whole thing. This is worse than when I turned up to my secondary school’s non uniform day in my cowboy outfit.

I genuinely just had to walk away from my desk to get myself back under control after reading this :+1:

I didn’t vote for any telly actors either.

I don’t think (hope?) any complaints are because they’ve been in a soap. True of the likes of Guy Pierce isn’t it? The point is if they’re only known for soaps and/or (Dyer) being a bit of a ridiculous personality.

Chuck D’s first draft needed work

Do people think that what happens on TV is not acting or something then :man_shrugging:

Sometimes people off the telly are in films. Plays also!

Did any TV directors get in the directors list? I still haven’t finished that.

Then how did those of you not voting for telly actors reward Ian Mcshane’s portrayal of Lovejoy!?!?!

I don’t think so, though I’d say TV has been an actor’s medium a bit longer than it has been a director’s one (which probably only happened in the last 5 or so year tbh with things like True Detective, where one director gets a whole season to work with)

Nothing against telly just, you know, I hate everything soap operas stand for and how else are we going to wring some beeves out of this? :smiley:

What… what do they stand for?

Yes but you also have people like Edie Falco and David Tennant on TV though

A very admirable aim nonetheless

Cleanliness!

Can you name any TV directors off the top of your head? I don’t think I can and I’d guess that’s true for most of us, whereas at least we can name TV dudes.

There were some like David Fincher and Jane Campion who had their TV shows listed under them for voting. I think Top of the Lake won as most liked for JC?
