Dick award<\/a>. I really enjoyed those, though!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve seen 2\/3 of the long form dramatic presentations, missing only <em>Russian Doll<\/em> S1 (the first couple episodes were fun, but didn&#8217;t get further through, for no particular reason) and Jordan Peele&#8217;s <em>Us<\/em> (which is on my &#8220;to watch&#8221; list).<\/p>\n<p>Only seen one of the short form nominees, <em>The Mandalorian<\/em>&#8216;s &#8220;Redemption&#8221;, but I couldn&#8217;t tell you which episode that was, so&#8230;&#x1f937;&#x200d;&#x2642;&#xfe0f;.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations to all the nominees, and I look forward to finding out which book will be added to my <a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/hugo-reading\/\">Hugo Best Novel reading project<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations to all the nominees, and I look forward to finding out which book will be added to my Hugo Best Novel reading project!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2036],"tags":[2012],"class_list":["post-23889","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-books","tag-hugoaward"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23889","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23889"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23889\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23889"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23889"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23889"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
