Tyler James Williams was nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Comedy Series for his work on Abbott Elementary. So he walked the red carpet looking his best.
Who knew that his best meant he would be sexy AF? But that is exactly how he looked.
And I feel so wrong looking at him like that. Because I remember watching him as young Chris Rock on Everybody Hates Chris, but he is 31, so it is not wrong. It just feels that way.
Many years ago, I saw an interview with Owen Wilson, and he mentioned the “Disdain Look.” That is when you recognize a celebrity out in our habitat. Basically, we squint our eyes, wondering how do we know them. Then we are like, “oh,” when we realize who they are. So finally, we look away. Thus, why Wilson calls it the “Disdain Look.”
Since I live in a small town with celebrities like a very recent EGOT winner, I am familiar with giving my neighbors that look in Trader Joe’s or Big Lots. I am just trying to be respectful of their privacy.
However, that is what I am thinking about it when I give them the look. But what are celebrities thinking when they see people give it to them?
Tyler James Williams was on The Tonight Show on Friday, and he talked to Jimmy Fallon about it. He says that he gets three different versions of the look. The first is the “happy to see the cute kid from Everybody Hates Chris is all grown up.” The second is the “sad I just saw you die on The Walking Dead.” And finally is the “Oh look, it is the sexy man from Abbot Elementary.”
Whatever look you give him, you can tell that he is happy that you are looking!
Yesterday was a big night for Abbott Elementary at the Golden Globes because the show brought home three awards. And three seems to be its lucky number because the sitcom was picked up for a third season today.
The news is not a surprise because it is ABC’s #1 series and its viewership is up 31% from its debut season.
Congrats to new Golden Globe winners Quinta Brunson and Tyler James Williams, Janelle James, Lisa Ann Walter, Chris Perfetti, William Stanford Davis, and Emmy winner Sheryl Lee Ralph on their winning everything, including our hearts!
Tune in for a new episode tonight at 9p. I wonder how much longer it will be in the timeslot? I have a feeling it will have first period, I mean the first timeslot, next season.
Before Tyler James Williams was teaching students on Abbott Elementary, he was a student on Saturday Night Live. How awwwdorable was in the 7-year-old in that 1999 sketch?
ABC released the first trailer for the second season of Abbott Elementary, and the sitcom about teachers is still bringing the laughs. Actually, it looks like Quinta Brunson, Tyler James Williams, Janelle James, Lisa Ann Walter, Chris Perfetti, and Sheryl Lee Ralph have graduated to giving us even more humor. Because of that, September 21st can’t come soon enough!
