I feel this conversation is an example of how females often downplay or are asked to downplay their accomplishments. My god, Moss has already directed a total of 7 episodes in two well-known shows /established TV platforms and has 10 credits of being executive producer or producer on IMDb. Add to that her directorial debut was last season, not this season -- which Kimmel didn't seem too aware of -- so for the main story to be for her as a "first time director" feels a little dumbing-down of her accomplishments. In any case, very proud of Moss' body of work, have loved her since her Mad Men days.
Insightful and well written prose of course I am so thankful for you and your words and respect for this Ladybugs's complete portfolio and body of professional things.
Oh yes. Women are always the victim, even when they must always have their way all of the time. If not, or they believe it is wrong, they will stop complaining...even for 30 years or more. And all while gossiping and complaining about men
She’s such a good actress, it’s strange seeing her not in character. She plays June so well it’s like she was made for the role. Handmaids will forever be in my top 5 shows of all time, legit just because of this incredible woman.
I don't know how she does it, her craft is DEEP. I'm watching Handmaids AGAIN for the 5th time from the beginning and she's just amazing. I can't wait to see where they take this story.
Fantastic actress and director, on one of the most horrifying but totally addictive shows on television! Based on an amazing book, as all great shows are!
All great shows are not based on books. The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Mad Men- just a few PERFECT shows which are not based on books. Just sayin’.
When you see Elisabeth Moss the down to earth, comical but humble actor/human being and then realize just how deep into the character of June she gets, it is absolutely ASTOUNDING. The character is the COMPLETE opposite of her actual personality. Case in point of how brilliantly talented she is. She is incredible.
This! I just finished watching the newest episode, her voice, her overall personality is a stark contrast. She is an incredibly gifted actress, I love watching her on my screen.
The cast and the writing of this show is phenomenal. I have to mentally prepare myelf to watch it , it can be that intense. A couple of my fave episodes last year were directed by her, must be doing something right! :-)
@@roamthewayhome He’s referring to the fact that She is a Scientologist. If you look up testimonials from women who have left, it is very anti-feminist and very misogynistic. I would specifically encourage you to look up the fact that the church leader’s (David Miscavige) Wife is missing and no one can account for her whereabouts or if she’s even alive. And if you want to talk sexism Leah Remini Who has been trying to get law-enforcement to investigate Has said all of her dealings have been with men none of them have taken this case seriously, doubtful that would be the case if the tables had been turned.
@@eugenevidocq5529 in my opinion they’re both a problem. And just to give you a gauge, people who have come out of Scientology have said that parishioners are pressured by clerics to vote GOP, including the 2016 Trump election. I would refer you to the reporter Tony Ortega and Scientology whistleblowers Karen De LA Carriere and Tori Christman
I’m sorry but it’s never going to not astound me that she’s in a show like the handmaid‘s tale while simultaneously being a Scientologist and not seeing the contradiction in any capacity.
She's an amazing actor. I just wish she could get out of Scientology but I fear she's in too deep. Hopefully she can get out some day. Rooting for her❤
She's amazing. I love her. I remember her in her Excedrin commercial in the mid nineties. I knew she had the right stuff ever since then. Thank you Elisabeth Moss for being you!!
@@kapb4149 Unable to budget cable TV for a long time, I never saw all her shows but I’m glad to hear that she’s so accomplished and at such a young age. Awesome.
I think that Elizabeth Moss is very talented…for sure. For her though, and other celebrities I cannot understand how they are not speaking out about the alleged abuses and financial practices of Scientology. Really..how can they not address these allegations??
Fantastic interview! I must say I wish I had waited one more day to watch it so I could have seen the season 4 finale first. 😂 I'm already counting down until I get to watch it, but is it bad that now I'm even more excited to see it?! Justice in my eyes!
When I first watched her in Mad Men, I remember excitedly pointing out to people, “Hey! That’s the little girl from Picket Fences with the dead duck head!” …Sadly, no one else remembers that. :(
While it was fair for the handmaids to chase Fred and take his life since he had terrorized so many women and had so many people killed, it grieved me that they beat him to death when they could have just executed him with a single gunshot. Not because it didn't fit with Gilead's crowd sourced "justice" / punishment the handmaids were taught to do, or that Fred didn't deserve it, but because the women ended up becoming the kind of murderous abusers that they had been victimized by, which is a perpetuation of all that is awful about Gilead, not a repudiation of it, and the women are losing the best parts of their humanity the more they let themselves jump into a blood lust. Also, it was Serena's right to decide if she wanted a finger trophy from Fred, since he had hers cut off; it was going a bit too far for June to do that, especially since she did it to hurt Serena, not as a consolation for the loss of her finger. And Canada is going to lose a lot of empathy for the handmaids because of this execution by torture.
Most religions are cults. My own parents believe so much that an invisible daddy in the sky told them to disown me because of who I love. Talk about cultish
As far as I’m concerned Elizabeth Moss is a saint compared to the other cultist. She’s never showed up at my door to judge me or ask me for money. I’ve actually never once heard her even discuss her religious viewpoints. It’s actually refreshing. What one believes is none of my business
She might be one of the most genuinely happy people I’ve ever seen. Her eyes have absolutely no sadness at all. Maybe Scientology is more lit than me thought. 😂
She shouldn’t downplay the “other” show she recently did. I actually enjoyed it. Does it stack up against handmaid? Certainly not. But it has potential. I feel she’s very underestimated.
What’s disturbing about any interview with Moss or Tom Cruise is you know a member of “the church” is on set. Maybe several keeping tabs and her. Makes you wonder how she’s really feeling.
She gave a super bullshit interview about scientology a year or so ago, look it up, it's a fascinating read. She's so deep she's not getting out. She loves it there. And as for members of the church, they are there with her for everything she does and she's well aware of it and she doesn't mind. She's incredibly brainwashed. Such a shame, such a great actress but an awful human being.
That scene took me out of suspension of disbelief, tbh. Dude was a commander in a society ruled by sanctified rapists. The handmaids would have done it before they killed him.
@Peanut honestly He still forgives if they truly repent i do think the person will see and feel the pain they caused but can still make it to heaven and be forgiven as crazy as that seems. HES LOVES A BILLION TIMES BIGGER THAN OURS. GOD BLESS WITH LOVE ❤

Absolutely agreed.!
I came to the party sooo late…watched all 5 seasons in the past week and I’m all caught up…the show is freakn unbelievably absolutely amazing.

She is part of scientology which handmaids tale is basically the essence of, so she takes it from real life LOL
the power of scientology
thats slightly obsessive
At one point in the series I started to think she was over acting. I had to stop watching. But she’s great and I’ll watch the new season

I've wondered the same 😞
Thanks for your apology.
Wait what
She chose to be in that cult. Gilead doesn't give anyone a choice.
She was born into it so it’s not like she voluntarily signed up, she was indoctrinated. To her credit she never discusses it.
Love how humble she is and friendly.
She's an amazing actor. I just wish she could get out of Scientology but I fear she's in too deep. Hopefully she can get out some day. Rooting for her❤
scientology is less homophobic than christian religions
Praised be
She was born into it. Not likely
Yes, escaping from Scientology would be as hard as escaping Gillead.
How is scientology any more ridiculous than any other religion?
Great to be back at the show, I'm ready get anxious 😀 Elisabeth really does one of the best performances I've seen overall as June
She's amazing. I love her. I remember her in her Excedrin commercial in the mid nineties. I knew she had the right stuff ever since then. Thank you Elisabeth Moss for being you!!
She's a great actor. Peggy on Mad Men went through so many changes throughout the series.
Omg I didn’t know she was so well spoken and so sweet ! Love her ! Can’t be more talented!
Moss is so cool. What an awesome lady with massive talent. Shes totally rocks.
This is the best least awkward interview I’ve seen on Kimmel. Great job Elizabeth!
Xenu not getting any credit for getting ya into the Guild? Hm.
She is one of the best actors of her generations. Amazing. And generally I hate Hollywood.
She can play any role, I love her
Maybe you can imagine how “unique” it is for me to watch this clip when I’ve never seen Handmaid’s Tale. She was a delightful guest.
She’s done so many other things for her age. She was already doing series before Mad men ended .

I’ve never been more riveted by a show. I love it.
Been a fan since "Girl interrupted" and I love "The Handmaids Tale!"
the irony of her being the lead of this show will never cease to amaze me.
Elisabeth Moss is good in every show or movie performance and that scene from Picket Fences is super cute.
June Osborn is my hero!!! I can’t imagine acting any other way in her situation.
She can do anything , She is so talented, but always humble.

The handmaid's tale is the best show of all time🙌 🔥
She's great! 👏
That pantsuit is stunning, Lizzie!
Key word handmaid. This is the maid that's hands on. A modern day woman
Elizabeth is a MUCH better actress than JLo who sucks at singing and acting equally.
I don't know her
Elizabeth moss is a legend
I would like and believe her more if she wasn’t a cult member of the church of Scientology.
Most religions are cults. My own parents believe so much that an invisible daddy in the sky told them to disown me because of who I love. Talk about cultish
Maga is a cult

So with that Rhonda I ask that you please remove the plank from your own eye before worrying about the speck in Lizzie’s
is she really? darn
She might be one of the most genuinely happy people I’ve ever seen. Her eyes have absolutely no sadness at all. Maybe Scientology is more lit than me thought. 😂
Best series in 2022 it’s epic something different and it keeps u in ur toes , loved it ❤
She is the best actress of our generation
Lizzie’s hair extensions look better than usual. She looks lovely!
Absolutely amazing in The Invisible Man. Sexier than Jennifer Lopez because talent is more attractive than superficiality.
She shouldn’t downplay the “other” show she recently did. I actually enjoyed it. Does it stack up against handmaid? Certainly not. But it has potential.
I feel she’s very underestimated.
I loved both Mad Men and handmaids tail she's so good in both
Love her! and the show
Loved Mad Men.
The final season will be a documentary, not fiction :(
😂
The show as it is now is already a documentary in many countries around the world
What a wonderful person - such great energy! It's funny, I still see Peggy (even after all these years)!
Literally can’t wait!!
Should have asked her where Shelly is
And West Wing doesn't even merit a mention! Shows the quality of her body of work !
If the final season will not bridge over to the Margaret Atwood's The Testaments it would be strange.
Should have cut it off- they cut Emily’s off- Waterford deserved it and more
I want Serena to have the same fate as captain Waterford
She believes that her style is to work with “decapitated body parts” but she could just as easily say she works with circumcised body parts.
Shinning girls was very good !
I love her
Amazing beautiful woman!!!!! Wow so talented and genuine
Elizabeth moss is way more attractive and way more successful than Jennifer Lopez is on her best day. She should not have felt threatened at all.
Joke is on you, she said this herself.
On what planet? Lopez is a better actress too.
he cut off Serena‘s finger that’s why. Jimmy doesn’t know anything about the show or about Elizabeth and it’s annoying
I LOVE HER 🥰
An actress who is in a cult draws from her cult experience to inform her acting of being in a cult. Beautiful

How did Moss not get invited to the Emmys as a cast member of West Wing?
She wasn’t a main character, mostly recurring. I think there was a whole season she wasn’t there.
