Disappointing to see no nominations for Outlander. At the very least I expected an acting nod for Caitriona Balfe, imo she has been outstanding this year.

The Black Oil

Finally some nominations for Russell and Rhys and The Americans.

I know it was aired in one evening in the US, but still seems a bit bizarre.

Mars Bar

Surprised Grace and Frankie wasn't nominated for Comedy Series.

And also snubbing Eva Green, Rachel Bloom and Gina Rodriguez, just disgraceful :mad:

I don't think there will be any uproar like at the Oscars for being so white with this year's Emmys

FreudianSlippers

Outstanding Comedy series is going to be a tough one this year! So many good shows (except Mod Fam which has really declined sharply this season and Black-ish which I just don't find even mildly amusing).

pickarooney

Modern family being nominated is surely a running gag as this stage. Funnier than anything on the show in the last four years anyway.

JP Liz V1

I thought Laurence Fishburne would be Black-ish best shot of a nomination

Mr E

Very happy for Tatiana Maslany and Rami Malek.

All reports say that it was a great Emmys to watch.

Sudden Valley

Happy that Veep won but in most categories I probably only watch one or two of the shows so hard to judge who was most deserving to win. When people used to buy physical dvds I think slapping a multiple-Emmy winner sticker on the box set was a commercial boon but now I'm sure net flix even mentions it.

Agent Coulson

The cast of The People v OJ Simpson all well deserved winners.

Disagree, it was awful. I couldn't even finish the last 2 episodes and just read the book instead. The 2 things I remember most is how badly they cast OJ and the shows obsession with the Kardashians, oh yeah and Ross from friends constantly saying 'Juice' all the time. It's not a patch on the masterpiece that was Fargo.

pickarooney

Delighted for Louie Anderson.

I think you're in the minority there, it was superb.

I cant believe that was Sarah Paulson's first Emmy win

I am delighted Ben Mendelsohn won

For the Emmys.

Same guy that did Katy Perrys halftime show at Superbowl 49

There was certainly no lack of diversity in the Emmys anyway. Maybe it's just me but I thought it was very conspicuous.

Not saying it's a bad thing, it was long enough the other way. Just a bit obvious maybe?
