IndieWire's Millions of Screens

On this week’s episode of Millions of Screens, Ben, Libby, and Leo discuss the category fraud that is Disney+’s “Hamilton” occupying seven acting slots and a directing spot in Limited Series or TV Movie categories, when it is, in fact, neither.

Additionally, Ben and Leo argue about whether Jonathan Majors cameo was enough to make the “Loki” finale good, while Libby gives a run down of the TCA nominations, which — surprise, surprise! — seem like they wereselected by a group of people who watch television.
