If Squid Game can prevail at the veteran TV loving SAG, then it has to be the early favorite for the Emmy
Things were interesting on the TV side at SAG tonight, where the two lead actors from Squid Game shocked with surprise upsets and led to me think the show had to win ensemble, only to come up short to Succession after all, which…I can’t quite figure out why. If they liked Succession that much, how did the actors not win? Was there vote splitting going on? In limited series, veterans Kate Winslet and Michael Keaton won, which is in keeping with traditional SAG tendencies (and Keaton’s heartfelt speech was the most emotional of the night), while comedy went to Emmy winners Ted Lasso, Jason Sudeikis and Jean Smart.
