Jimmy Kimmel gave the most important monologue in American history. I love TV and I believe in the unifying power of comedy. Long live Late Night and the fearless storytellers who bring everyone into the conversation.

JIMMY KIMMEL IS BACK ON THE AIR TOMORROW!!!

DO NOT MESS WITH ARTISTS. WE ARE FUELED BY REJECTION, UNPHASED BY FAILURE, ACTIVATED BY SPITE, AND SUBSIST ON A STEADY DIET OF DELUSION THAT ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. YOU CANNOT DEFEAT US.

The sexiest thing on the planet is empathy, so dudes complaining about not getting any action, I guarantee don’t have any.

As a nation, if we had more Broadcast sitcoms and shared experiences like Late Night TV, we wouldn’t be so divided and overly sensitized to topical commentary. Comedy is supposed to shine a light on current events. You don’t have to like it or agree, but silencing it is severing society.

Hollywood has a saying about “sending the elevator back down” to help those on the way up.

Robert Redford epitomized this. He didn’t just climb the ladder for himself. He lifted others as he rose. His legacy isn’t just the roles he played, but the countless storytellers he elevated along the way.

Robert Redford was one of a kind. That rare mix of sauve and substance. Brilliant actor, humanitarian, godfather of indie film, and tireless champion for justice and the arts. He fought for underrepresented voices to be heard and we should all be forever grateful for his. See you at the movies, sir.

Yes! He showed the brand name stitched inside his jacket in a red carpet interview! Such a class act.

Gennefer Gross @gennefer.bsky.social · Sep 15

No. Hardly anyone even watched that (fantastic) show. But her work in THE PENGUIN was otherworldly.

I am BAWLING. Noah Wyle deserves this Emmy so much. The sheer force of emotion he conjured in every moment of THE PITT was staggering. Dr. Robby is the embodiment of the internal battle we all face as we try to traverse the sorrow and horrors of this life. Thank you for your service. #Emmys

The artists will save us. #Emmys

“In a time of great division, storytelling still has the power to unite us. For years, television has challenged the status quo and bent the arc of history toward justice.”

WE NEED SHARED EXPERIENCES TO SURVIVE. WE NEED SOCIALLY CONSCIOUS SITCOMS. LONG LIVE TV. #Emmys

Cristin Milioti getting her due is exhilarating. And I love that she wrote her speech on the back of a scrap of paper in therapy. We need the raw honesty and soulfulness of actors living their dreams because they reach our hearts through the screen and give us hope. #Emmys

This #Emmys is awesome, but not one person thanking Sal Saperstein is very disappointing.

Gennefer Gross @gennefer.bsky.social · Sep 15

Owen Cooper pulling off what he did in ADOLESCENCE in one continuous take at 15-years-old rivals even the most accomplished seasoned actor and I am overjoyed for this kid, who ended his speech with “what matters most happens behind the camera.” Keep an eye on this one. #Emmys

JEFF HILLER JEFF HILLER JEFF HILLER!!! I AM CRYING. HE IS AMAZING AND DIDN’T MAKE IT UNTIL HE WAS 40. NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS. #Emmys

Gennefer Gross @gennefer.bsky.social · Sep 15

Hannah Einbinder is a comedy legacy with massive amounts of talent and even more integrity, who always uses her platform for good. This Emmys feels healing. #Emmys

Gennefer Gross @gennefer.bsky.social · Sep 15

I am tearing up that everyone in the audience is singing along to THE GOLDEN GIRLS theme song. Comedy is vital and this show is timeless. Thank you for being a friend. #Emmys

“My first acting coach was tough, but all great mothers are.” - Tramell Tillman

What a class act and an even more well deserved win in a STACKED category of phenomenal actors. #Emmys

Gennefer Gross @gennefer.bsky.social · Sep 15

Yesssss I literally just screamed when they said Katherine LaNasa’s name. Her performances on THE PITT were masterful. #Emmys

Gennefer Gross @gennefer.bsky.social · Sep 15

I hope Jean Smart winning Best Actress at 74-years-old, glowing like the vibrant powerhouse she is, will be another reminder that life doesn’t end at 40 and women just get better with age. #Emmys

We all owe Mike White a debt of gratitude for bringing Jennifer Coolidge back into our lives. #Emmys

Gennefer Gross @gennefer.bsky.social · Sep 15

A STANDING OVATION FOR STEPHEN COLBERT. I LOVE HOLLYWOOD. #Emmys

“Will there be a network for white people?”

“Yes, CBS.”

“… the Caucasian Broadcast Network.”

Strong start to this year’s #Emmys.

Gennefer Gross @gennefer.bsky.social · Sep 14

Natasha Rothwell is absolutely OWNING the #Emmys red carpet.

Gennefer Gross @gennefer.bsky.social · Sep 14

As much as I love SEVERANCE, the pacing, emotional heft, and heavy social issues THE PITT tackled with such humanity and grace deserves to be recognized. I hope they sweep The Emmys tonight.
