This is the second combined win for Howard Cummings and Regina Graves. They previously won together for The Knick (2016) and were also nominated together for The Knick (2014). Cummings was also nominated for Behind the Candelabra (2013), Westworld (2018) and Lovecraft Country (2020).

As I don't consider myself a gamer I was in no way familiar with the game Fallout of its story so the Amazon series adaptation was all a major surprise for me. The universe created for the series was so stunning to behold. Many great universe details featured throughout that made watching the series such a pleasure. The work for Cummings and Graves really was a standout moment of the whole series.

Shôgun (“Anjin”)

AND THE WINNER IS:

When I think of hair from this past television season the only series I think of is Feud. With all the women's high sixties hair it really was a feast for the eyes.

OUTSTANDING GUEST ACTRESS IN A COMEDY SERIES


Olivia Colman as Chef Terry for (“Forks”) in “THE BEAR”
Jamie Lee Curtis as Donna Berzatto for (“Fishes”) in “THE BEAR”
Ana Gasteyer as Grace Fences for (“Grace”) in “LOOT”
Kaitlin Olson as DJ for (“The Roast of Deborah Vance”) in “HACKS”
Da'Vine Joy Randolph as Donna Williams for (“Sitzprobe”) in “ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING”
Cree Summer as Rosalyn Inez for (“Librarian”) in “ABBOTT ELEMENTARY”

AND THE WINNER IS:


JAMIE LEE CURTIS AS DONNA BERZATTO FOR ("FISHES") IN "THE BEAR"

This is the first win and nomination for Jamie Lee Curtis. She wins for her performance as Donna Berzatto on The Bear.

When it came down to chosing my winner in the category the choice came down to two recent Oscar winners (the most recent Supporting Actress winners to be exact) playing characters named Donna. However the choice became clear in the end cause I could not get the outrageous and expressive work by Jamie Lee Curtis with her two episode appearance on the second season of FX's The Bear. She instantly explodes on screen during the seasons sixth episode making the thanksgiving meal that the episode itself is named after. The episode was brilliant and even with a whole bunch of brilliant well known guest stars stopping by the performance I think about most is delivered by Jamie.

t truly is a tour de force performance that I'm not soon to forget and given how she has showed up again for another brilliant appearance on the shows third season I could maybe find myself in a year from now awarding Jamie yet again. It truly is impressive how on a high Curtis has been in the last few years with her work on The Bear and her Oscar winning turn in Everything Everywhere All at Once which kind've started the ball rolling.

OUTSTANDING COSTUME DESIGN FOR A SERIES, MINISERIES OR MOVIE


Lou Eyrich and Leak Katznelson for (“Masquerade 1966”), Feud: Capote vs. the Swans
Kasia Walicka-Maimone and Patrick Wiley for (“You Don't Even Like Opera”), The Gilded Age
Kirsten Mann for (“Women Who Rule”), Loot
Dana Covarrubias for (“Grab Your Hankies”), Only Murders in the Building
Carlos Rosario for (“Anjin”), Shôgun

AND THE WINNER IS:


KASIA WALICKA-MAIMONE AND PATRICK WILEY FOR ("YOU DON'T EVEN LIKE OPERA"), THE GILDED AGE

This is the first win and nomination for Patrick Wiley. Kasia Walicka-Maimone receives her second win having previously won for The Gilded Age (2022).

The Gilded Age is just a pleasure of a costume drama and honestly like with the first season I never question the production elements of the show. The second season improved a lot of elements but something they did not need to do was improve the costume designs. Every character is dressed in the most high class designs and I find it such a pleasure to witness the characters living in the universe.
