In the race for Best Actor in Drama are Matthew McConaughey, Bryan Cranston, Woody Harrelson, Jeff Daniels and Jon Hamm. Is that Oscar came early this year right? Nope. It's television. The Emmy, to be precise. The awards dealing with this thing called 'the idiot box'. It turns out that what we saw distraíamos pure metal dinosaur superhero and take the big screen, this case became the best place in the world to find the best performances and stories of the world. And that box, by the way, also became computer, tablet or phone.
I do not cease to marvel at the phenomenon that is HBO. And I am not referring only to the fact that he had 99 nominations for these awards. Many do not remember the channel was originally put on the map by being the first to broadcast films on television shortly after they left theaters. Fewer people know that their first major achievement was his first major technological and transmission that changed television history forever, was the boxing match Muhammad Ali vs. Joe Frazier in Manila since 1975, because they were the only ones capable of transmitting via microwave.
No. None of that is present in the minds of those who now feel empty and eternal since its Sunday impressively ended the most recent season of Game of Thrones. Neither are those who are thinking shocked to tears after seeing The Normal Heart, the version of the play of the same name and now the original film was made (with Julia Roberts, Mark Ruffalo and an all-star cast) HBO and also swept the nominations. And the years pass, but neither ever thought we dealt with The Sopranos, Sex & the City, Rome, True Blood and The Newsroom. Simply forever expectations of what to do for television rose, and the entertainment industry changed forever. Today, with partnerships in various countries, Mexico one of the leading, premium series and movies more than ever are being prepared.
Last year was the news that Netflix, with its extraordinary House of Cards, had forever changed the concept of what television was in its own way. Not only for the number of nominations received, but that changed our viewing habits forever. We had never been able to feed both our compulsiveness to know what was coming next. It's never been necessary that each chapter had an element of 'Final Friday' and we never finished so fast seasons, having to wait sometimes up to more than one or two years to feel that satisfaction again. This year, thanks to the extraordinary Orange is the New Black, Netflix has 31 nominations. CBS, which finished second and has over dozens of productions in the contest, had 47. For an idea of how they give the subject is moving. Because unlike what happens in Mexico, the United States broadcast television itself is completely fragmented and competing directly against pay or premium. Does the complex game of telecommunications in our country will not follow the same model? Maybe make take a little longer. But the fact is that the main series, TV movies and special productions nominated for 66 Emmys in its issue have been and continue to be able to see in our country.
