I thought the acting was top notch, especially by Elizabeth Olsen and Kathryn Hahn. I know superhero shows are typically shunned from any awards, but do you think there is a chance that either of these talented women could be nominated for an Emmy? \u2014 <em>Tony<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Matt Roush:<\/strong> A good chance, I\u2019m hoping. I\u2019m encouraged by how a similar breakthrough fantasy series, <em>The Mandalorian<\/em> from the <em>Star Wars<\/em> universe, performed well at the Emmys last year, winning seven technical awards and scoring a best-series nomination (plus one for Giancarlo Esposito as guest actor). I enjoyed <em>WandaVision<\/em> thoroughly, especially with the spot-on homages to classic sitcoms in the first half of the season, but it remained mostly clever and true to its emotional core throughout. Elizabeth Olsen was faultless, whether channeling Mary Tyler Moore through Elizabeth Montgomery, expertly mimicking <em>Modern Family<\/em>\u2019s Julie Bowen or revealing Wanda\u2019s own inner grief and resolve. As for Kathryn Hahn, what a blast either as nosy neighbor Agnes or the wicked witch Agatha, a true tour-de-force. For me, <em>WandaVision<\/em> at its best transcended genre, so I\u2019m hoping the industry will take <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ropriate notice \u2014 especially the TV industry, whose traditions the series so honored. (I also expect nominations for production design, music and much more.)<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Blowing_Taps_Too_Often_on_NCIS\"><\/span><strong>Blowing Taps (Too Often?) on <em>NCIS<\/em><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Question: <\/strong>Maybe more of a rant than a question, but why so much death on <em>NCIS<\/em>lately? First Jimmy\u2019s wife offscreen. Then we have Sloane leave, which we knew was coming. Now this week out of nowhere, Emily Fornell overdosing. I get that these things are \u201creal life,\u201d but oof! <em>Real<\/em> real life is enough for me right now! And did they need to have these events happen all in a row? <em>NCIS<\/em> is usually my light, easy-to-watch show. Thanks for letting me unload. \u2014 <em>Cyndi<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Comment: <\/strong>I know the death of secondary characters played by women in <em>NCIS<\/em>\u2019s world has reached <em>Star Trek<\/em>\u201credshirt\u201d status, but the recent off-screen demise of Emily Fornell (Juliette Angelo) to an overdose just felt like drama for drama\u2019s sake. I get the point \u2014 addiction is never truly over \u2014 but it seemed so gratuitous in a season that already killed off Palmer\u2019s wife to COVID. Despite Rocky Carroll\u2018s heartfelt reading of the poem at the end, this just seemed like drama for drama\u2019s sake, and not something in the flow of storytelling. \u2014 <em>RJ<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Matt Roush:<\/strong> If ever there were a year for formula procedural\/action series like <em>NCIS <\/em>to acknowledge mortality, it was probably 2020-2021. It may seem like piling on, and I agree the optics aren\u2019t the greatest when they repeatedly sacrifice marginal female characters, but I support producer\/writers any time they try to introduce a reality check into these worlds where invulnerability is the norm. Emily\u2019s tragic overdose, however upsetting, was a plot point at least earned by the gravity of her addiction, but it\u2019s fair to criticize the show for dropping this bombshell so soon after the offscreen while-we-weren\u2019t-watching demise of Jimmy\u2019s wife during the time jump. That was even more jarring for most viewers (at least according to my mailbag) because there was no buildup. Still, in the bigger picture, how many thousands of COVID deaths blindsided their loved ones? It\u2019s all fair <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a> for storytellers, even on a supposedly \u201cescapist\u201d crime drama like <em>NCIS<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>And because several have asked, the poem read by Vance (Rocky Carroll) in memory of Emily was \u201cEpitaph,\u201d by Merrit Malloy.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Liz_MIA_for_How_Long\"><\/span><strong>Liz MIA for How Long?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Question: <\/strong>I was wondering why agent Elizabeth Keene (Megan Boone) has not appeared on<em>The Blacklist<\/em> for many episodes this season. Is she going to come back on soon? I really miss her. \u2014 <em>Alba<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Matt Roush:<\/strong> This is one of the most frequently asked questions in my mailbag in recent weeks. When I asked our writer who reports on the show to check on it, Ileane Rudolph reports back that Liz will be returning soon. All the network will say about her absence is that it\u2019s dictated by story, that she\u2019s on the run working to take down Red (James Spader) and their war is building to a head. She\u2019ll be back on screen soon, but saying when would be a spoiler. And as I have noted many times and will do so again here: This column doesn\u2019t do spoilers (if I can help it).<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Facing_Reality_in_Chicago\"><\/span><strong>Facing Reality in Chicago<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Question: <\/strong>I know shows like <em>Chicago P.D.<\/em>don\u2019t typically get awards consideration, but the way the show is examining racial tensions between the Black community and the police is commendable. This has been an underlying theme the entire season, but this week\u2019s episode (\u201cProtect and Serve\u201d) was phenomenal. It was honest and thought-provoking, showing the complexity of the issue as Atwater and Ruzek are responsible for transporting and protecting an obviously guilty officer who shot a Black college student after a traffic violation. Atwater was forced to deal with his dueling identities as a Black officer while as a white officer, Ruzek was avoiding confronting the embedded racism in the job he loves. The writing and acting were superb, and I found myself questioning my beliefs throughout the episode. I wonder if critics are paying attention. \u2014 <em>Joe from Georgia<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Matt Roush:<\/strong> To its credit, NBC did flag this episode to critics and reporters, and we made note of it, both in <em>TV Guide Magazine<\/em> and on this site with a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>-feature preview and in my daily \u201cWorth Watching\u201d column on a typically busy night. Whether the industry will take much notice is another question, and the answer is: probably not. Whatever the bias might be against sci-fi\/fantasy programming come awards time, it\u2019s nothing compared to how invisible virtually every crime\/medical network drama is anymore.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Superhero_Spec-ulation\"><\/span><strong>Superhero Spec-ulation<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Question: <\/strong>On <em>Superman &amp; Lois, <\/em>since Lois and their twins Jordan and Jonathan all now know that Clark is Superman, why does Clark still wear his glasses while on the farm? He can just keep them in his pocket in case they have visitors. \u2014 <em>Chris<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Matt Roush:<\/strong> Oh, those glasses. You have a fair point, I suppose, but never has the myth that Superman (especially when played by a striking head-turner like Tyler Hoechlin) can disguise himself with a mere pair of Clark Kent spectacles seemed so silly as it does on this mopey domestic drama. One logical answer would be that you never know when someone\u2019s going to drop by and catch even someone with super-hearing off-guard. Honestly, though, why sweat the small stuff?<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"And_Finally%E2%80%A6\"><\/span><strong>And Finally\u2026 <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Question: <\/strong>Please comment on the intersection of<em>The Good Doctor <\/em>and its stable of actors (regulars and guests) and the Hallmark Channel\u2019s stable of actors. I keep seeing a LOT of crossover. How come? So far so good in terms of use of actors and actresses. It was nice to recently see Nicholas Gonzalez (aka Dr. Melendez) in a Hallmark movie. Fiona Gubelmann is a star in both worlds. \u2014 <em>Jane D, Warren, PA<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Matt Roush:<\/strong> The explanation is pretty basic: proximity. <em>The Good Doctor<\/em> films in Vancouver, and the majority of Hallmark movies are also shot across the border, and they\u2019re always in the market for telegenic actors so you could just say it\u2019s a benefit of the local talent pool. Hallmark movies typically don\u2019t take that long to film, so they\u2019re good and easy gigs for moonlighting actors. And when someone suddenly becomes freelance like Nicholas Gonzalez (RIP Dr. Melendez), these movies provide a particularly good fallback for a handsome leading man.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s all for now.
