This week on the season premiere of And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes writer Eddie Mouradian, to discuss the 1990 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Kathy Bates won for her performance in "Misery," beating Anjelica Huston in "The Grifters," Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman," Meryl Streep in "Postcards from the Edge," and Joanne Woodward in "Mr. & Mrs. Bridge." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Bates.
