Best Career After Smash — Page 2

I remember how much s*** was thrown at Kathrine for whatever reason during Smash so I am glad that she is doing well in her career.

I agree and when you listen to her new CD it makes you shake your head how she lost on AI.

I think they mean because he's had many nominations and hasn't won, he may win this year out of the desire to reward him for his decades of work on the stage (similar to how Kelli O'Hara won last year despite a superior performance by Kristin Chenoweth).

Yeah, thirded about Kat's album Hysteria - such a good pop record. Truthfully surprised it wasn't Grammy nominated.

What was that nickname they were calling Emory Cohen character?

And kids, Danny B IS the favorite to win and this not a sympathy thing. He is giving a magnificent performance (as is Kelli).

I heard she's gotten much better on her new show! I haven't gotten to start it yet - but I want to soon. After a rewatch of "Smash" I found that I enjoyed Kat much more then I did when it was first airing.

Speaking of Kat - season two's Jimmy/Karen story line was based off of Julie Jordan and Billy Bigelow. After hearing that, I couldn't help but want to see Kat do "Carousel" with Jeremy Jordan. Anybody else find that intriguing?

I agree with Javi.

The answer is - most unexpectedly - Emory Cohen.
His stock is rising. He was wonderful in BROOKLYN and has completed or has in-production six other feature films. Actual movie stardom seems quite possible for him.

All the more impressive given that he - how do I put this politely? - failed to make much of an impression in SMASH.

Thought it was released after the cutoff date for this year. While I really liked it I don't see it being record the Grammy voters would vote for especially since it was not a commercial success.

the time he was there he wasn't so good. it seemed like the character was written for a child and not an older teen.

"Released just in time. But yeah, while I was surprised it wasn't nominated, I sorta knew it wouldn't be recognized. It's political anyway. I hope she'll get a nomination at some point in her career. All of her albums are enjoyable. Even the Christmas one. And this is coming from someone who HATED her up until like, mid-2015. Rooted against her all throughout Idol, too."

Thanks for the information regarding the release date. IMO she should have won AI and her rendition of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" was just fantastic. I really like "Hysteria" and there are some great youtube clips of her doing some of the songs live. IMO this record should have done better commercially but what do I know - lol. I think some people on this board took their frustration with the story line in SMASH out on her. It was not her fault that they had her character take the lead (Bombshell) from Megan Hilty who is clearly better suited for the role of "Marilyn". I think Katharine McPhee did a very good job with her songs in "Hit List" but unfortunately the songs were not as good as the songs for "Bombshell". Yes, her acting was not that great but you can see the improvement on her current show "Scorpion". Finally, I also hope some day she gets a nomination because she really does have a wonderful voice.
