Emmy wins and Lanterns twists dominate
Awards season heats up with surprise Emmy wins for Linda Cardellini and David Harbour, while HBO's 'Lanterns' delivers its biggest twist yet. Meanwhile, Nathan Fielder's secret Elizabeth Holmes doc breaks cover at Telluride.
Emmy night surprises
The Primetime Emmys brought first-time wins and a posthumous honor, reshaping the limited series landscape.
David Harbour matched Cardellini's win in the same category, marking a milestone after years of 'Stranger Things' nominations, and cementing 'DTF St. Louis' as the night's breakout.
Rob Reiner's posthumous Emmy for 'The Bear' Season 4 drew a standing ovation, a rare moment of collective industry respect for a late legend.
Lanterns' big reveal
Episode 4 of HBO's 'Lanterns' dropped a game-changing twist that even the cast didn't see coming.
The revelation that Zoe is the Manhunter reshapes everything in 'Lanterns', and the fact that the actor didn't know until reading Episode 4's script suggests the show is playing its cards very close.
The cast's genuine surprise at the twist confirms 'Lanterns' is keeping its secrets tight, which makes Episode 4 feel like a genuine turning point rather than a telegraphed beat.
Secret docs and backlash
Two documentaries made news today, one for its stealth rollout, the other for its star's bold comments.
Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim's stealth Elizabeth Holmes doc, 'You Can See Everything,' premiered at Telluride with no prior announcement, a fittingly opaque rollout for a story about deception.

Andrew Garfield's warning to billionaires about his new film 'The Uprising' backfired, with critics pointing out his own wealth, a messy PR moment for a movie that clearly wants to provoke.
