Kevin Bacon Posted July 14, 2016 Author Share Posted July 14, 2016 Unfortunately the full list with writing and directing noms isn't to be found right now. The big story here is that the Emmy voters actually watched The Americans this year, as in its fourth season it finally gets the attention it's deserved for a long time. A (well-deserved) victory doesn't seem likely, but it's exciting it finally made it in. On the other hand, The Leftovers was snubbed entirety, which means Justin Theroux, Carrie Coon, Ann Dowd, Regina King, Christopher Eccleston, etc etc are all in the dark for their terrific performances. And completely unsurprisingly, FXX's terrific You're the Worst might as well not exist, which is a shame not only for the writers but for Aya Cash who put on the best performance in any comedy in the past year.

Holy shit they nominated Margo Martindale for Guest Actress on The Americans again. They'll give that woman a nomination for anything, considering she's done fuck all on that show since the second season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I'm kinda cackling that they passed on Scorsese in favor of some random Ray Donovan guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Panda Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I'm very happy Kit Harington and Maisie Williams both managed to score their first emmy nods. 6 Acting nods for Game of Thrones (especially with nobody who qualifies for leads) is very impressive. 23 Nods overall. I'm only kind of irritated they snubbed Djawadi for Light of the Seven. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
