And it went to... A Very English Scandal.
I saw just one award for a Channel 4 production but clearly the BBC dominated it.
Such a shame that the two Sunny March productions nominated tonight were ignored but slightly more sad for this category. Patrick Melrose undoubtedly deserves to be watched by more people (including critics!)

This is about the thing I posted twice, isn't it? Where are you following it?
Is there someone from Sky or Sunnymarch?

A Very English Scandal is good and it was seen by millions. Popularity is a thing.
I am just grateful that The Bodyguard didn't win.

They awarded a series called Derry Girls which I just watched on Netflix. It's really funny and apparently it was very acclaimed in the UK but I can't stop thinking how it is so conventional and very old-fashioned. I mean I guess it has some adult themes you normally didn't see in old sitcoms but it doesn't change the fact that it feels like a setback after decades of sitcoms like The Office or Arrested Development. It's so forgettable! Again it's enjoyable but at the same time, it shouldn't be winning awards but ironically awards committees do tend to like conventional.
I watched just half episode of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel but I am now wondering if it's a similar case!
EDITED: I checked reviews and apparently part of the raves are because it's about females so the politically corrcet theme probably helped it. It's a good little series but also very disposable. I guess it tries to show some kind of "deepness" when they mention The Troubles but those scenes are kind of cringe-worthy.
