Prestige Junkie

Mississippi’s own Landon Bryant— better known on the Internet as Landon Talks— joins Katey to talk about his hometown hero Parker Posey and her divisive, instantly iconic performance on the current season of The White Lotus. They also talk about the actors who have nailed their Southern accents over the years, and Hollywood might be able to work with creators like Landon to truly get it right going forward.

With splashy TV premieres everywhere you look and many more to come, it really is officially Emmy season, but maybe a little too early to get into the weeds of who will win. So instead we're kicking things off with a look at the world of prestige TV, Ankler-style, with two of our Series Business authors, Elaine Low and Manori Ravindran, joining me to talk about the world of TV overall. How do this year's contenders reflect all the anxiety and contraction we're seeing in the industry? How are so many UK imports making such a splash? And which shows are giving us hope that TV might just be OK after all?

Chris Feil and Joe Reid return to join Katey for a broad overview of the most exciting films ahead this year, from new work from greats like Paul Thomas Anderson, Celine Song and Yorgos Lanthimos to, yes, Wicked: For Good. They also continue their annual tradition of making irresponsibly early best picture predictions, and share some hopes that Colin Farrell, Paul Mescal, Andrew Scott and even some non-Irish actors will have a huge year ahead of them.
