'Heroin(e)' and '60 Minutes: The Whistleblower,' two Emmy winners about the opioid epidemic

In this morning's Americans agree on a few issues, Pew Research Center finds, I wrote "drug addiction stands out to me as the issue with the best combination of agreement between partisans and high number of people who think it's a major problem.  Because of that, the next set of winners at the News and Documentary Emmy Awards I will tackle will be about the opioid epidemic, including 'Heroin(e).'"  I thought the Oscar-nominated short about the women of Huntington, West Virginia, who are doing their utmost to combat the loss of life from opioids and opiates that is contributing to life expectancy falling for two consecutive years in the U.S. was the favorite to win its category, and I was right.  Watch Kate Bolduan present the award for Outstanding Short Documentary to 'Heroin(e).'


Counting "Life, Animated," this is one of four Oscar nominees for documentaries that won News and Documentary Emmy Awards, the others being "Abacus" and "Last Men in Aleppo."  I'll get to both of them in future installments of this series.


The other winning entry about the opiod crisis is the "60 Minutes" segment, "The Whistleblower."  Watch as Ana Cabrera Teresa Rodriguez awards it Outstanding Investigative report in a Newsmagazine.


It's a shame that the audio and video ended up so out of sync.  The segment and the people responsible for it deserved better.  Fortunately, they got a curtain call as they were interviewed in Investigative Report in a News Magazine "60 Minutes and Washington Post: The Whistleblower".

Correspondent Bill Whitaker and the team from CBS 60 Minutes and The Washington post's "The Whistleblower", winner of the Emmy Award for Outstanding Investigative Report in a News Magazine, presented at the 39th Annual News & Documentary Emmy Awards.

It turns out that the segment had an effect on government, as it helped convince a potential appointee for "drug czar" to withdraw his nomination.  That ties into another issue members of both major parties agree is important, ethics in government.  Good work and congratulations.  As I wrote in 'Charlottesville: Race and Terror' wins four Emmy Awards as four participants in riot arrested, it's a good example of sunlight being the best disinfectant.  Here's to American journalists continuing that vital work.

Americans agree on a few issues, Pew Research Center finds

Pew Research Center published a study on Monday that found little partisan agreement on the pressing problems facing the U.S.  That's disheartening.  How can Americans solve our problems if we don't even agree on what they are?

On that note, I looked for the few areas of agreement and found one paragraph buried well down in the report.

There are a few issues that similar shares of voters in both parties regard as major national problems. About six-in-ten (61%) Republican voters say the federal budget deficit is a very big problem, as do 56% of Democrats. In addition, there are modest differences on violent crime (49% of Republicans, 47% of Democrats) and drug addiction (67% of Republicans, 64% of Democrats).

In addition, the study found majorities of participants from both parties were concerned about ethics in government (80% of Democrats, 62% of Republicans) and the affordability of health care (83% of Democrats, 56% of Republicans), while majorities of Democrats and near-majorities of Republicans thought that the way the U.S. political system operates (58% of Democrats, 49% of Republicans) and the affordability of a college education (71% of Democrats, 47% of Republicans) were areas of major concern.  I think there is hope that Americans can make progress in these areas.  At least we can disagree about the means, not the ends.

Of all the above subjects, drug addiction stands out to me as the issue with the best combination of agreement between partisans and high number of people who think it's a major problem.  Because of that, the next set of winners at the News and Documentary Emmy Awards I will tackle will be about the opioid epidemic, including "Heroin(e)."  After that, I'll tackle violent crime by writing about the winners covering mass shootings.  Then I'll find winners covering ethics in government and how the U.S. political system operates followed by health care.  Sorry, I don't think there are any nominees or winners about the federal deficit or the price of a college education.

There was also a topic that members of both parties agreed on that wasn't a major issue, terrorism.  Only 41% of Republicans and 27% of Democrats considered it pressing.  That means I'll save winners about the Syrian Civil War for later, even if the journalists and documentarians thought it important.  Nothing like letting the evidence guide my blogging.


There were two other areas that the Pew Research Center found that Americans of both parties agreed.

Similar shares of supporters of both Republican and Democratic candidates describe themselves as active in their local community. And nine-in-ten or more in both parties consider themselves to be open-minded.

In addition, majorities of both parties considered themselves to be "typical Americans" who "have traditional values."  I actually hope all those things really are true.  If so, then people might be able to be open to solutions to the problems they agree on and work together to solve them.

'Life, Animated' wins Best Documentary and two other Emmy Awards

In the meantime, stay tuned for more coverage of the News and Documentary Emmy Award winners.  I expect the next installment will be about "Life, Animated," which beat both "Chasing Coral" and "Putin's Revenge" for Best Documentary.

That's how I closed 'Charlottesville: Race and Terror' wins four Emmy Awards as four participants in riot arrested, so I am following through.

Since I have never blogged about the movie before this year, I am embedding its Official Trailer to explain the movie.

From Academy Award® winning director Roger Ross Williams, LIFE, ANIMATED is the inspirational story of Owen Suskind, a young man who was unable to speak as a child until he and his family discovered a unique way to communicate by immersing themselves in the world of classic Disney animated films. This emotional coming-of-age story follows Owen as he graduates to adulthood and takes his first steps toward independence.

I hope my readers can see why I wrote that it would be tough competition for "Chasing Coral," if for no other reasson than it being a fomer Oscar nominee.  In fact, it was such a quality entry that it pulled off the equivalent of "Charlottesville: Race and Terror" by sweeping its three nominated categories.

Instead of working down from the top award, I'm working up to it, beginning with Kate Bolduan presenting the trophy for Outstanding Editing Documentary.


In 14 nominations for 12 reports about Las Vegas Massacre and other mass shootings at the News and Documentary Emmy Awards, I wrote that "I consider 'Life, Animated' to be the strongest contender for this award."  I was right.  Congratulations.

Next, Bill Whitaker presents the award for Outstanding Arts & Culture Documentary.


I don't know how the soundtrack got so out of synch with the video.  Still, congratulations.

Finally, the category that attracted my attention to this movie, Best Documentary.  Watch Dick Cavett present the award in his uniquely whimsical way.


I appreciate how Ron Susskind, Owen's father, connected this film to the current state of journalism and the country, making it even more relevant.

This film deserves a curtain call, so here are the crew and subjects of Arts & Culture Documentary "Life, Animated" being interviewed.

The team from Life, Animated", on A&E, winner of the Emmy Award for Outstanding Arts & Culture Documentary, presented at the 39th Annual News & Documentary Emmy Awards.

Congratulations!

I plan on writing about the rest of the Oscar nominees at the 2018 News and Documentary Emmy Awards, three of which, "Abacus," "Heroin(e)," and "Last Men in Aleppo," won awards.  Stay tuned.

Sears Holdings files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, a tale of the Retail Apocalypse

As foreshadowed in Part 4 of Sears, a tale of the Retail Apocalypse, Sears Holdings filed for bankruptcy today.  WXYZ broke the story at 6:00 A.M. today with Sears, the store that changed America, declares bankruptcy.

Sears, the once-dominant retail chain that changed how Americans shopped and lived, has filed for bankruptcy.

The Taylor store that served as the backdrop for the location shoot was not on the closure list.  Instead, the Sears in Ann Arbor and Lincoln Park and the KMarts in Lake Orion and North Charlevoix were.  I used to shop at the Sears in Briarwood Mall in Ann Arbor, so that hits close to home.  Also, last I checked, Briarwood Mall is not a dead mall, so seeing it on the closure list surprises me.  Maybe it just lost customers to the other anchors, JCPenney, Macy's, and Von Maur.  However, my prediction that the Twelve Oaks Mall location in Novi would be open until the entire chain goes under continues to look good.  Good thing I didn't write that about the Sears in Briarwood!

In addition to Sears filing for bankruptcy, Eddie Lampert, who I call Fast Eddie Lamprey, has stepped down as CEO.  CNBC discusses that and more in Cramer: Capitalism getting rid of Sears is good.

The 'Squawk on the Street' team discusses Sears filing for bankruptcy and Eddie Lampert, Sears Holdings CEO, stepping down.

I can imagine trying to run a retail chain that isn't for rich people from a yacht in Florida would be difficult, not that I feel sorry for Fast Eddie Lamprey.  He needed to go.  Also, I think Cramer may not be wrong that the creditors could force the hand of Sears Holdings and cause the firm to go into Chapter 7 bankruptcy, resulting in liquidation of assets and closure of all stores by early next year.  I hope that's not the case, but I think the entire company will be out of business by late next year or early 2020 at the latest.

CNBC also looked forward to what the Sears bankruptcy would mean to malls and Sears retail competitors in Sears bankruptcy not a bad thing for malls, says pro.

Liz Dunn, Pro4ma founder and CEO, and Charlie O’Shea, Moody’s retail analyst, discuss the future for Sears following its bankruptcy filing as well as who else in the sector stands to benefit.

My opinion of what the bankruptcy will do for malls is still the same as it was last Friday.  "It will sink a lot of malls, although some landlords will be able to lure more lucrative tenants (subscription required); the rich will get richer while the poor get poorer."  As for which competitors will benefit, I agree with the panel — Macy's, JCPenney, WalMart and Target for general purchases, Best Buy for electronics, and Amazon for people who want to shop online.

I conclude with CBS News giving a capsule history of the chain in How Sears went from innovation to bankruptcy.

Over its 130-year history, Sears has sold watches, clothes, farm machinery, appliances and even houses.

Looks like the company has been in decline for longer than I thought.  Wow, sad.

'Charlottesville: Race and Terror' wins four Emmy Awards as four participants in riot arrested

Last month, I reported that "Charlottesville: Race and Terror" was tied for most nominations at the News and Documentary Emmy Awards with "Cries from Syria" and "The Wounds of War" at four nominations, Outstanding Coverage of a Breaking News Story in a Newscast, Best Story in a Newscast, Outstanding Video Journalism: News, and Outstanding Editing: News.  It won all of them while "The Wounds of War" won two its four and "Cries from Syria" came away from the ceremony empty-handed.  This made "Charlottesville: Race and Terror" the most winning single entry at this year's News and Documentary Emmy Awards.  Wow!

Watch Martha Raddatz present the award for Outstanding Coverage of a Breaking News Story in a Newscast.


Elle Reeve's acceptance speech serves as evidence that the best disinfectant is sunlight.  The disgust at last August's Weimar moment in Charlottesville worked to drive the corn pone fascists back underground.

Raddatz herself noted that that Vice had swept its nominated categories.  She would know, as she also presented the trophy for Outstanding Video Journalism News.


Zack Caldwell foreshadowed Reeve's sentiments, again stating that exposing the alt-right was the best way to stop them and their ideas.

Dick Cavett presented the statuette for Best Story in a Newscast with more than a touch of drama and humor.  Honestly, I was amazed to see that he's still around, let alone that he's still as sharp as ever.


As for Reeve, I'm glad she maintained her composure in the face of Cavett's slightly silly introduction and praised the other women on her production team, especially the one who made her interviewee cry.

Finally, Teresa Rodriguez presented the award for Outstanding Editing News.


Reeve noted that the report aired only 18 hours after the last interview wrapped, so it was only fitting that Tom Clancy thanked Reeve and the rest of his crew.  Based on the speed and quality, he and the rest of the editing team deserved this award.

The Vice News Tonight crew deserves a curtain call, so here they are being interviewed after winning Breaking News Story in a Newscast "Vice News Tonight: Charlottesville -- Race and Terror".

The team from Vice News Tonight: Charlottesville -- Race and Terror, winner of the Emmy Award for Outstanding Breaking News Story in a Newscast, presented at the 39th Annual News & Documentary Emmy Awards.

Congratulations!

By the way, the story is not over.  The day after the awards, CBS Los Angeles, which I grew up watching, reported Members Of California White Supremacist Group Arrested In Charlottesville Rally.

Four members of a militant white supremacist group from California have been arrested on charges they traveled to Virginia last year to incite a riot and attack counterprotesters.

Since there will be no second Paul Manafort trial, it looks like I'll be following this one instead.

In the meantime, stay tuned for more coverage of the News and Documentary Emmy Award winners.  I expect the next installment will be about "Life, Animated," which beat both "Chasing Coral" and "Putin's Revenge" for Best Documentary.

'Chasing Coral' wins an Emmy Award for Outstanding Nature Documentary

I concluded PBS NewsHour and Al Gore explain the latest IPCC climate report with the topic of today's bonus entry.

Speaking of award-winning environmental films that examine climate change, I need to follow up on "Chasing Coral" and the outcome of its nomination for Outstanding Nature Documentary.  Since it's Sunday, it's time for an entertainment feature, so I'll do that later today.  Stay tuned.

As I expected last December, "Chasing Coral" won Outstanding Nature Documentary.


Congratulations to Jeff Orlowski and the scientists whose work he recorded.

Speaking of which, two of the researchers' institutions issued press releases about the Emmy win.  Follow over the jump for both of them.

PBS NewsHour and Al Gore explain the latest IPCC climate report

While I've been busy writing about economic disasters, such as Sears likely filing for bankruptcy and the Dow falling 1776 points in ten days, the latest news came out about climate change and the risks associated with it.  PBS NewsHour began the week asking World needs to make near-revolutionary change to avoid imminent climate disaster. Is there hope?

Unless we immediately reduce the burning of coal and oil and gas that drive up global temperatures, a new UN report warns the world will suffer tremendous consequences as early as 2040. William Brangham talks with Rafe Pomerance of the Woods Hole Research Center and Gavin Schmidt from the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies.

On the one hand, that's an alarming question from PBS.  On the other, yes, there is still hope, although the time to act to avoid the worst consequences is running out.

PBS NewsHour was not done with the IPCC report, as they interviewed the other winner of the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday.  Watch Al Gore calls Trump’s deregulation proposals ‘literally insane’.

Former vice president and climate change activist Al Gore warns that climate change could be an “existential threat” and calls President Trump’s response an “outlier reaction.” In a wide-ranging interview, Judy Woodruff speaks with Gore about Hurricane Michael, President Trump, the UN Climate Change report out this week, and why he thinks Democrats will fare well in the midterm elections.

I'm glad Gore made the connection between climate change and Hurricane Harvey and other examples of how climate change makes hurricanes stronger.  Not enough people are doing that.  That was a major theme of An Inconvenient Truth, although not as much of "An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power," winner of last year's Environmental Media Association Award for documentaries.  I suppose if it had come out after Harvey, it might have reinforced the point.

Speaking of award-winning environmental films that examine climate change, I need to follow up on "Chasing Coral" and the outcome of its nomination for Outstanding Nature Documentary.  Since it's Sunday, it's time for an entertainment feature, so I'll do that later today.  Stay tuned.

Dow falls 1,200+ points as bond yields rise

Last month, I wrote Ten years ago, we were partying like it was 1929. Are we about to do it again?  The answer was not this year, at least in terms of a recession starting.  However, I did not alter my stock market predictions that I made in The tax bill and the U.S. economy in 2018 and beyond and repeated in John Oliver helps update 'The tax bill and the U.S. economy in 2018 and beyond,' a top post of the seventh year of Crazy Eddie's Motie News.

You asked on Twitter "about the latest stock market woes, is there anything worth noting?"  Time to check my predictions about stocks: "I expect the Dow Jones Industrials to get above 25,000, struggle to break 26,000, then sink down to between 20,000 and 22,500 over the next couple of years."  The Dow broke 25,000 early in January, had no trouble getting above 26,000 but then struggled to stay there, and fell about halfway from 26,000 to 22,500, so my predictions look pretty good so far.  At worst, I'm one and one-half out of three and that score will stand no matter what else happens.  As for the future, watch what happens with interest rates.  Janet Yellen's successor and the rest of the Federal Reserve Board may not raise rates as aggressively as they would have before the worst one-day point drop in the Dow.  That may allow stocks to recover to 25,000 before falling below 24,000.

The prediction in the last sentence also happened, as stocks rallied above 25,000 before falling below 24,000.  Also, the Dow Jones fell to 22,533.20 [actually 23,533.20] in March, a little more than 1,000 points above the upper target of 22,500, so reality came even closer to my prediction.

Since then, the stock market took eight months to finally rally enough to set four more record closes on September 20 and 21 and October 2 and 3 ranging from 26,656.98 to 26,828.39.  Then this week happened.

First, CNN reported Thursday Dow plunges 1,000+ points in two days.

The stock market sell-off isn't letting up. After flirting with gains early in the day, the Dow lost as many as 699 points on Thursday afternoon. The Dow cut about half its losses following reports that President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping have agreed to meet next month at the G-20 summit. The market slide tacks onto Wednesday's scary sell-off that wiped 832 points off the index.

Despite the spectacular drop, which wiped out nearly all of this year's gains, this is less than halfway to the 22,500 mark I called for.   I still have plenty of time, as I gave the market until the end of 2019 to get there.  Besides, a drop of 1776.17 points is nothing to sneeze at, even if it doesn't yet qualify as "partying like it was 1929."

Yesterday, CBS This Morning had a calmer analysis of the situation on Friday morning in What's behind the stock market sell-off?.

The markets are coming off the biggest two days of losses since February. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost nearly 546 points Thursday, a 2.1 percent drop, on top of an 831-point plunge on Wednesday. The S&P 500 was also down 2.1 percent. CBS News business analyst Jill Schlesinger joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss what's behind the sell-off.

The futures markets were right, as the Dow rebounded, which KPBS reported yesterday evening in Friday Business Report: Stock Market Tumbles.

STOCKS RECOVERED TODAY AFTER TWO CHALLENGING DAYS ON WALL STREET. THE DOW JONES ENDED UP NEARLY 300-POINTS... STILL SUFFERING ITS BIGGEST WEEKLY LOSS IN SIX MONTHS. EARLIER I SPOKE WITH MIRO COPIC WITH SDSU'S MARKETING DEPARTMENT AND THE CO FOUNDER OF BOTTOM LINE MARKETING----ABOUT WHAT MIGHT OF SPOOKED INVESTORS.

All three reports credited the selloff to the Fed raising interest rates.  That was the first of the signals for the next recession that I listed last December.

The most likely would be an inversion of the yield curve, which means that short-term interest rates would rise higher than long-term interest rates.  The Federal Reserve has been raising short-term rates for the past two years while long-term rates have been rising much more slowly.  If present trends continue, short-term rates will rise above long-term ones within a year or two, which always signals a recession within a year.

We're getting there, as CNBC told its readers and viewers Watch out for the yield curve late last month.

The spread between short- and long-term interest rates continues to shrink — the difference between 2- and 10-year Treasury bonds was just 21 basis points on Sept. 14 — but equity investors are shrugging off the bearish signal from the bond market.

When short-term bonds pay more than long-term ones, it's usually a signal that economic growth is peaking and that a recession is on the horizon. It does not, however, mean a downturn is necessarily around the corner or that stocks are headed for a crash.

"An inverted yield curve doesn't cause a recession," said Matt Toms, chief investment officer for Voya Financial. "People get confused about the causality on that front."

It does, however, provide a strong reminder that economic cycles and bull markets don't last forever. Toms, for one, thinks the Federal Reserve Bank will pause on its path back to "normal" monetary policy to avoid an inversion of the curve. "Chairman Powell is a markets person," said Toms. "We think the Fed will stop pushing and the curve should begin to steepen by year-end."

Bob Miller, head of the U.S. multisector fixed-income team at BlackRock, also thinks the Fed will try to avoid a curve inversion. "It's possible that the yield curve inverts, but I think it's unlikely," he said. "We think the Fed will be sensitive to that possibility, and if the 10-year Treasury yield fails to rally, the Fed will signal that quarterly rate hikes are too aggressive."

I hope that Miller is right about the Fed, but I'm not optimistic.  In fact, it may already be too late.  Seeking Alpha reported that the TIPS or Treasury Inflation Protected Securities yield curve has already inverted.  It also noted that "The TIPS yield curve inverted before the last recession and forecasts growth and inflation like the nominal Treasury yield curve does."  My call for a recession beginning during the second half of next year looks even better, which is not really good news.

Part 4 of Sears, a tale of the Retail Apocalypse

I left off Sears, a tale of the Retail Apocalypse with Part 3 in August, writing then "That hurts, although my wife and I have a Sears just a bit closer at Twelve Oaks Mall.  I don't think that one will close until the entire chain goes under, which should happen next year, as Twelve Oaks Mall is still thriving.  When that happens, it will hurt."  The end has come even closer, as WXYZ reported yesterday Sears facing bankruptcy: Here's what consumers need to know.

Sears may be days away from bankruptcy. The long-troubled retailer has reportedly started making the moves for a filing, leaving nearly 1,000 Sears and Kmart locations on the chopping block.  The company is $134 million in debt and hasn't turned a profit since 2010.

WXYZ was reporting from the Twelve Oaks Mall location in Novi, which I think is no coincidence.  As I wrote above, it would be open until the entire chain goes under, which is sooner than I expected.  Last April, my prediction was "I suspect Kmart [will] follow Toys R Us into bankruptcy once the holiday shopping season is over and could be closed by the end of 2019, just when I'm predicting the U.S. to be in recession."  In July, I added "That goes for Sears, too, since they're the same company."  The company almost certainly won't even last that long.  At this rate, it will be closed after this year's holiday shopping season.

WXYZ isn't the only one of my regular sources that is following this story.  Follow over the jump for two videos from Retail Archeology.

Emmy wins by 'RuPaul's Drag Race,' 'Queer Eye,' and 'Will & Grace' for National Coming Out Day

I told my readers to "stay tuned" as "I'll be posting later today on some of those examples of representation at the Emmy Awards" in the middle of Neil Patrick Harris on 'The View' for National Coming Out Day.  I also wrote that "I might have more to say about reality shows after the Primetime Emmy Awards, when Outstanding Reality-Competition Program will be awarded, especially if 'RuPaul's Drag Race' wins" in 'United Shades of America' and 'Life Below Zero' both win at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards.  It's time to kill two birds with one stone, as RuPaul's Drag Race Wins For Outstanding Reality-Competition Program.


E! quoted the acceptance speech.

"Thank you to the Academy. This is so lovely. We are so happy to present this show. I would like to thank, on behalf of the 140 drag queens we have released into the wild, I'd love to thank Dick Richards for introducing me to Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey," RuPaul said, acknowledging his partners at World of Wonder, who've produced the series since its inception.

With that, he turned to those watching at home. "All of the dreamers out there, listen," he said. "If you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else? Can I get an amen up in here? Now let the music play!"

"RuPaul's Drag Race" won a total of five Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program for RuPaul Charles, which I reported in Diversity a winner at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards.  E! noted that this is "the first reality series to nab series and host wins in the same year."  Wow!

"RuPaul's Drag Race" also won Outstanding Directing for a Reality Program, and two categories I covered in 'Saturday Night Live' leads Outstanding Variety Sketch Series nominations, again.'Saturday Night Live' leads Outstanding Variety Sketch Series nominations, again

Now for categories I have not mentioned before, beginning with Outstanding Costumes for a Variety, Nonfiction, or Reality Programming.

Dancing with the Stars (Episode: "Disney Night") (ABC)
Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert (NBC)
RuPaul's Drag Race (Episode: "10s Across The Board") (VH1)
Saturday Night Live (Episode: "Host: Natalie Portman") (NBC)
Tracey Ullman's Show (Episode: "Episode 1") (HBO)

"RuPaul's Drag Race" won this category last year, so I think it's the favorite.  The year before, a live musical did, so "Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert" is my pick for an upset.  SNL has an better than average chance, as it is the only other previous winner among the nominees.

I called it, as "RuPaul's Drag Race" won.  I wasn't as lucky or skilled in the next category.

Next, Outstanding Hairstyling for a Multi-Camera Series or Special.

Dancing with the Stars (Episode: "Night at the Movies") (ABC)
Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert (NBC)
RuPaul's Drag Race (Episode: "10s Across The Board") (VH1)
Saturday Night Live (Episode: "Host : Tiffany Haddish") (NBC)
The Voice (Episode: "Live Finale, Part 1") (NBC)

A live musical won this last year, but five years in a row before that, SNL won this category, so I think it's the favorite, followed by "Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert."  My third choice would be "Dancing with the Stars," but that show hasn't won since 2011.

Surprise!  "RuPaul's Drag Race" upset all my choices.  I'm O.K. with that.  Congratulations to "RuPaul's Drag Race" on all five of its Emmy Awards.

Follow over the jump for the Emmy wins by "Queer Eye," which won Outstanding Achievement in Reality Programming at the 2018 Television Critics Association Awards, and "Will&Grace," which I promised I would write about today.
