Sorry for the delay in this year’s Emmy Award nominations post. For what it’s worth, the Emmy Awards will probably be delayed as well because of the writers’ strike and the inevitable actors’ strike. For now, the Emmys are scheduled for September 18. This year’s nominations are packed, and yet there are still significant snubs. Two fan-favorites shows said goodbye this year – Succession and Ted Lasso – and both shows were showered with nominations, especially Succession, which earned 27 nominations total. Other big favorites were The Last of Us, The White Lotus, Abbott Elementary, The Bear and Wednesday. Big snubs for Kevin Costner, Yellowstone and 1923 – while those shows are huge hits, they’re not respected by the TV Academy. You can see the full list here. Here are the big categories:

Man, they really expanded those supporting categories, huh? They might need to create additional supporting-actor categories to support all of the great work being done by actors in non-lead roles. I actually agree with all of the supporting nominations, especially for The White Lotus and Succession – I love that Simona Tabasco got nominated, she really had a “star is born” moment in The White Lotus. I’m hoping Matthew Macfayden wins, and I’m hoping Kieran Culkin win the lead actor Emmy over Jeremy Strong and Brian Cox. Kieran’s work was just… *chef’s kiss*. What else… I love Jenna Ortega’s nom, I love Tyler James Williams’ nom, I love Pedro Pascal’s nom. I saw people complaining about the lack of nominations for Yellowjackets… while I know a lot of people are watching it and I’m sure the actresses are doing a great job, I also think that Yellowjackets is really hard to get into. My guess is that the average Emmy voter just skips the show.
