...fünfzehn Jahre her, dass Pretyn das über Doyle geschrieben hat. Von den Emmy-Nominierungen 2022 schreibt "Variety" bezüglich Danny Strongs Karriere:

Behind the camera, popular 1990s and early 2000s stars are also emerging as Emmy contenders. Danny Strong, the creator of Hulu’s “Dopesick,” recently shared that while he’s a multihyphenate now, that wasn’t always the case. In fact, many recognize him from his acting roles — he starred in 29 episodes of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” between 1997 and 2003; in 2003, he was cast in “Gilmore Girls” in a recurring role that lasted 29 episodes.

“When I was 25, I had been supporting myself as an actor for almost two years at that point. I had this mild depression from all the rejection, and I thought, ‘Wow, why am I feeling this way? I’m actually doing it. I’m actually achieving what I set out to do — maybe not at the level that I am trying to achieve. But that could still happen. But I don’t understand why I’m not more fulfilled by this.’”

Then he tweaked his focus to writing and that all changed. Now, he’s a staple; his first Emmy nomination came in 2008 with “Recount,” a TV film about the 2000 U.S. election. In 2012, his adaptation of “Game Change” won him two Emmys. Now, he’s on the hunt (and likely will take home) even more as the limited series about the opioid crisis has a whopping 14 nominations.

The limited series category proves how powerful history is, as four of the five shows nominated (“The White Lotus” as the exception) are about events of the past. Hulu’s “The Dropout” follows Elizabeth Holmes’ Theranos scandal; Netflix’s “Inventing Anna” looks at Anna Sorokin’s crimes between 2013 and 2017; and Hulu’s “Pam and Tommy” retraces Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee’s relationship, focusing on their sex tape that was stolen from them in 1995.

Apparently, what’s old is new again.
