Time to show off those fake pearly whites, girl! Starting off strong for her 2020 Emmys campaign, Meryl Streep entered into Big Little Lies’ world not to ogle at the real-estate porn, but rather to make her TV family as deeply uncomfortable as possible: In this clip from last night’s premiere, Meryl’s character, Mary Louise Wright, is still mourning the death of her son, and wants to ensure that her grandkids and daughter-in-law (Nicole Kidman) also lean into their primal side to deal with the grief. “I’m so angry, angry, that their mediocre, second-rate, pudgy, balding, middle-management sons are still alive,†she muses. “So you know what I did? I did scream.†And she does it again. And again. And again.
