Okay show. Not too many fun moments and a lot of the banter felt really forced, even by banter-at-award-shows standards. The pairings were pretty good, though. Bell was fine, whatever. No one's gonna remember a single thing she did a few days from now, let alone a year or so. Honestly, that's not a bad thing. I think the best thing about this show was that it moved. SAG is usually a slog, but there was a little more energy.

Nicole Kidman's very first SAG win! CONGRATS! Great speech, too.

+I really don't get what the deal is with Sterling and This Is Us and why they always get standing ovations?
+And Rosanna Arquette didn't get one???
+Aziz Ansari wasn't there, but James Franco was. Geoffrey Rush was. Robin Wright wasn't.
+E! asked Alison Brie about her brother-in-law. Lots of people commenting on it, but I get the feeling it was planned. She's going to have to say something, so...
+Standing ovation for Gary Oldman. Don't think any backlash is gonna sway the Oscars from rewarding him.
+The clips at this show are usually a mixed bag, but I thought all of them were well chosen albeit short. However...
+Regarding clips, I thought this but wasn't certain: Rockwell's clip was a deleted scene. McDormand's was trailer edit. THAT is bullshit.
+Frances is the first actress to win Leading more than once. And I loved her shoutout to rewarding the young actresses.
+Still no mention of the Stunt Ensemble winners during the show. Really - it would take a minute!
