Harrison Ford Is Officially a First-Time Emmy Nominee
Ford has earned rave reviews for his work in the AppleTV+ show, in which he plays Dr. Paul Rhoades, a veteran therapist who's also navigating the early stage of Parkinson's disease. In the Outstanding Supporting Actor category, he'll compete against his Shrinking castmate Michael Urie, as well as Ike Barinholtz for The Studio, Colman Domingo for The Four Seasons, Jeff Hiller for Somebody Somewhere, and last year's winner Ebon Moss-Bachrach for The Bear.

Shrinking earned seven Emmy nominations total for its second Season, including Outstanding Comedy Series. Along with the acting nods for Ford and Urie, Jason Segel and Jessica Williams were also nominated for their performances.
Prior to receiving his Emmy nomination for Shrinking, Ford earned recognition from the Golden Globes, with a Best Supporting Actor nod last year. He also received nominations at the Screen Actors Guild Awards and the Critics' Choice Television Awards.
While this is Ford's first Emmy nomination, it's not like he's had many opportunities to earn them: One of the biggest movie stars of the last 50 years was, after all, a bit too busy making movies. Early in Ford's career, during the late Sixties and early Seventies, he starred in several made-for-TV movies and popped up in various shows, but never had a main cast role. Only recently has Ford started working more in television, with the actor starring in the Yellowstone prequel, 1923, along with his work on Shrinking.

Forget The Studio –Seth Rogen's other Apple TV+ show is back next
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. I'm a huge fan of Seth Rogen's work with Apple TV+ – which is to say, I absolutely loved The Studio. I think it's one of the most exciting new shows for years, not least because it captures some of the spirit of Curb Your Enthusiasm with its deliberately awkward cameos and caricatures of celebrities. I'll hold my hands up, though, and admit that I haven't watched the other show Rogen made with Apple TV+, which came out a good while before The Studio. In fact, Platonic is now about to get its second season, starring Rogen opposite the terrific Rose Byrne as their rekindled friendship continues with more hijinks. The show's all about the ruts that we can find ourselves in as adult life takes its toll – it's not very hard to wake up and realise that you haven't actually spoken to someone you used to call one of your best friends for years. The first season saw Rogen and Byrne's characters reconnect and realise that they still had more in common than they might have thought. Now, their friendship might just be going to the next level in a new season. It'll feature the two of them trying to make their relationship less exclusionary to their partners and friends, folding them into activities in an attempt to retain a healthy balance between the various parts of their lives. Image 1 of 5 Image 2 of 5 Image 3 of 5 Image 4 of 5 Image 5 of 5 As glimpsed in the teaser trailer last month, that'll involve going golfing with disastrous consequences, but also Rogen attempting to bond with Byrne's gym-happy fitness enthusiast of a partner, and the start of "couple's dinners" to cement things. It's a balancing act that will clearly leave a lot of room for slapstick, too. So, I know what my job is now – I've added the first season of Platonic to my watchlist on Apple TV+ (which I think is the best streaming service going), and I'll be trying to catch up with it when I have a chance. The new season starts on 6 August, so I'm not sure I'll make that date, but it's nice to know I've got more goodness in store. Solve the daily Crossword

Itzhak Perlman's NYC townhouse has sold for $8.18M
No strings attached to this deal! Violin virtuoso Itzhak Perlman and his musician wife Toby Perlman have sold their historic, turn-of-the-century Upper West Side townhouse for $8.18 million, according to city property records filed on Monday afternoon. That's less than half of the home's original $17.5 million asking price in 2022. Advertisement 8 Perlman has long been known as one of the greatest violinists in history. Getty Images for Shoah Foundation 8 The massive, and light-filled, living room. Rise Media The elegant residence, at 21 W. 70th St. just off Central Park West, comes with its own pool and sauna. Advertisement It's where the Perlmans — who are also the founders of the Perlman Music Program for gifted young string musicians — raised their five children. The listing was last asking $11.9 million. Itzhak Perlman, an Israeli-American who won 16 Grammy Awards and four Emmy awards, along with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, is known for his brilliant breadth of work, which includes performing the haunting solo violin passages in the Oscar-winning score for 'Schindler's List.' 8 When you are one of the world's greatest musicians, a concert grand piano is key. Rise Media 8 An extra large eat-in chef's kitchen anchors the home. Rise Media Advertisement 8 There's also plenty of space for pantry storage. Rise Media 8 The dining area is also a delight. Rise Media 8 One of the home's five to six bedrooms. Rise Media 8 A rare spa level in the townhouse features an indoor pool. Rise Media Advertisement At 20 feet wide, the 8,000-square-foot dwelling is aptly close to Lincoln Center. It comes with five to six bedrooms, five baths, four powder rooms and six fireplaces — along with 1,500 square feet of outdoor spaces featuring a roof deck, a landscaped terrace and a garden. Design details through the home, which was built in 1901, include the generous use of bold, happy colors like yellow, intricately patterned hardwood floors and lots of custom woodwork. On the parlor level, a gracious layout includes 12-foot ceilings and a great room, while the main floor eat-in chef's kitchen is extra large and anchors the property. There's also plenty of room for a concert-sized grand piano — as well as a light-filled dining room with skylights and access to the garden, plus a wood-paneled library. The Perlmans loved raising their kids on the Upper West Side, but they are empty-nesters now and it's time for the next family to build their dreams here, friends told Gimme Shelter. The listing brokers were Richard Steinberg, Alexander Mignogna and Charles Beda, of Compass.

Jessica Williams returns to 'The Daily Show' to roast Trump
"The Daily Show" is welcoming back a familiar face. Host Jon Stewart threw cameras mid-monologue to Jessica Williams, a famed alum of the political satire program, on Monday, July 28. Williams, fresh off an Emmy nod for her role in Apple TV+'s "Shrinking," served as a regular correspondent on "The Daily Show" from 2012 to 2016. Back at her old stomping ground, Williams, 35, took aim at President Donald Trump, joking that he was using notable Black people to distract from a refusal to release the "Epstein Files." "Trump is trying to throw every Black person he can think (of) in front of the scandal to distract us," Williams quipped. "First, he released the Martin Luther King Jr. files. Then he accused Obama of treason. And now he wants to prosecute Oprah and Beyoncé?" How did new 'Daily Show' host do? Our quick take on Josh Johnson's debut Williams' comments come as the Trump administration continues to weather a scandal over the investigation into convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. Throughout his run for office, the president speculated that the government was withholding key evidence after the financier died by suicide in a New York jail cell before making it to trial. Now in office, however, the president has opted not to release further information, and the Department of Justice has maintained that there was no elusive "client list," with notable names who associated with Epstein. The move has angered some of Trump's most loyal supporters, and provided fodder for over a week of late-night monologues. Trump, Williams joked, was targeting "all of our greatest Black people," in order to distract from the scandal. "Who's next? Michael Jordan? Michael B. Jordan? Michael C. Jordan?" she continued. "We're about a week away from him saying that Urkel did 9/11. Urkel? Did he do that?" She then wondered aloud if she would be next, quipping that recent Emmy nominations might just make her famous enough to be a target. Williams, who has since ventured into more serious dramatic roles, occasionally swings by "The Daily Show" to remind audiences of her comedic prowess. She is one of several comics and actors who arrived in Hollywood after a stint on the Comedy Central program.
