      Mandy Moore album LOL.. that candy track was the shit but ... my only hope is the song I love . Yass, if he doesn’t win.. he should pull a Kayne west and say he had the greatest performance of all time in a limited series show. I actually missed seeing his face .

    • @5schrank
      @5schrank Před 6 lety +5

      AGREE! I have a tweet that I posted the day I watched the premiere which was pretty early in the tv season and I said there’s no way Darren wasn’t gonna win Best Lead Actor in a Limited Series at the Emmys this year. He’s got the nomination so I am pretty confident that I was correct !

    Soooooo is anyone going to mention the fact that Darren is hard-core crushing on Mandy? His words and facial expressions are screaming "I've been in love with you for 15 years"...can you really blame him though? She's seriously the sweetest.

    Mandy Moore deserves an Emmy nomination at least. I don't even think she got one last year and she's done a wonderful job in the second season.

    • @fong03
      @fong03 Před 6 lety +8

      Avaneesh M I’m still not convinced by her portrayal of Rebecca in her 60s, but she is doing well otherwise. The problem is that category is very competitive. If you nominate her, who do you leave out? Claire Foy? Elizabeth Moss? Evan Rachel Wood? Thandie Newton? Sandra Oh? Lena Headley? Robin Wright? Maggie Gyllenhaal? Keri Russel? I could probably list another 10 performances that were arguably stronger. We really are spoiled with the quality of shows airing now.

    • @jackielendel1530
      @jackielendel1530 Před 6 lety +14

      She is so underrated. That therapy scene when she started crying was sooo good! She needs 10 awards this year!!!!!

    • @pinkmapviolin
      @pinkmapviolin Před 6 lety +1

      Yes she was amazing in that therapy scene. It's one of my favorite scenes in the whole show. But she probably submitted either the episode where Jack dies or the episode right after (but most likely Jack's death).

    I’m so in love with how present Mandy seems in this.. first of all, always been a fan of hers but she’s such a goldmine! Like absolutely precious, ya know? I love how as he talks she makes affirmative remarks to ensure he knows she’s listening like “yes!” “sure” & “oh! thank you” lol she’s just a gem, man.

      StegeoTV he’s as straight as a circle (:

    • @stephaniel2850
      @stephaniel2850 Před 6 lety +36

      For what it's worth, he grew up in San Francisco doing theater much of his life with a bunch of gay guys, so I mean.. yeah, he's quite a bit more in touch with gay culture and all that than your typical straight guy :P He still does indeed identify as straight though, and I stand by respecting that.
      But anyway, my impression is that Tyler Garrity
      's comment isn't based around the assumption that Darren is gay so much as that he is a total hottie and I'm sure he has helped plenty of non-straight boys to realize they're not straight xD

    • @StegeoTV
      @StegeoTV Před 6 lety +6

      Well, he has a girlfriend, that's why I'm saying he's not gay. But if I didn't know he had one, I'd definitely think he's gay, like 99%. He doesn't act much gay tbh tho

    • @hompotreka

Thank you for your influence, you had a great one on me xx

    Grant Gustin and Melissa Benoist were also on Glee and they, too, are great singers/actors. Chriss actually played the character Music Meister of the Flash and on Supergirl. All of them are so blessed to have gotten to perform for the fans.

    I’m not a big fan of either of these two, but I have to say this has been one of the more pleasurable Actor on Actor sessions. I really love how knowledgeable each was of the others work and neither interrupted the other as they talked. Also both are well spoken - no “uhhhs,” “you knows,” “ummms,” which i appreciate.

    Love both of them! It's a great pairing too because they both started off with music in their own ways, moved to their big things that were all the rage in the day and then kind of dropped off the radar in terms of work for a while and then re-emerged with fantastic performances. Great choice, Variety, and really interesting to hear how thoughtful they are about their craft.

Fine until he told Mandy Moore how much he loved her first album 0_O... NOPE something doesn't add up here. SHE doesn't even like it lol.

    How I wish Mandy would have her own talk show and she'd have Britney, Christina, and Jessica as the guests, and all other artists from the 90's. 😂

    Two of my most favourite singers. Mandy has always been my number 1, even when Britney and Christina were the more popular ones in that age.

    I can see chemistry between them. They should do a movie or something.
