Support NeoGAF

[Goodstyle]

Andre Braugher and Kate McKinnon better get those Best Supporting Actor/Actress in a Comedy series nominations.

 

[Hazmat]

I don't watch all of those shows, but that lead actress I a comedy category is stacked with some crazy talent.

 

[Pixel Samurai]

same. People nominating Saul because they loved Breaking Bad.

Better Call Saul, for my money, had more nuance, restraint and complexity than any season of Breaking Bad.

 

[styl3s]

Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series
Jim Carter for "Downton Abbey" (2010)
Peter Dinklage for "Game of Thrones" (2011)
Ben Mendelsohn for "Bloodline" (2015)
Jonathan Banks for "Better Call Saul" (2015)
Michael Kelly for "House of Cards" (2013)
Alan Cumming for "The Good Wife" (2009)

I don't see Vincent D'Onofrio or Walton Goggins.

I don't know why i even bother with the emmy's.

 

[Anoregon]

Saul

No

Saul

I wouldn't say Saul was 100% amazing season of television, but it had one of the all-time best episodes of television I've ever seen (Pimento, ep 9)

 

[Thornton Reed]

Jonathan banks has got to win that supporting actor award

 

[Dany]

Hamm better fucking win or else I will write an angry temper tantrum on gaf.

 

[hamchan]

Ben Mendelsohn was fantastic in Bloodline and I hope he wins best supporting.

 

[SpideySenses]

Some of the snubs are annoying but Tatiana finally getting nominated more than makes up for them.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Justified got zero nominations for writing.

I thought for sure that was the one lock they had. At least a token writing nomination.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

YAY for Tatiana finally getting nominated but wow, no nomination for the Golden Globe winner Gina Rodriguez?

Game of Thrones was shit this season...

 

[Lord of Castamere]

Johnathan Banks needs to win. Shit just give Better Call Saul all the awards.

 

[EulaCapra]

Yes! Tatiana Maslany for the overdue recognition!

Most glaring snub that broke my heart though is Jane the Virgin's Gina Rodriguez. She won that Golden Globe, COME ON!

 

[ivysaur12]

HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

GRACE OF MONACO GOT NOMINATED FOR BEST TV MOVIE THIS IS THE GREATEST THING THAT'E EVER HAPPENED

 

[Bobby Roberts]

Johnathan Banks needs to win. Shit just give Better Call Saul all the awards.

It'll be Banks vs. Mendelsohn for that particular statue. Everyone else is seat-filling.

 

[Steelyuhas]

Absolutely ridiculous. Did Pratt ever got a nom either?

Don't think so

 

[OdysseusVA]

Better Call Saul and Silicon Valley

Take it to the bank!

 

[Ghost23]

Rick and Morty is better than every comedy show on there.

 

[-griffy-]

Rick and Morty is better than every comedy show on there.

But it's animated so it doesn't exist.

 

[Fjordson]

Please let Hamm finally get this. Even though it should be his second or third win.

 

[Meier]

No Hannibal (not surprising) and no Justified. No Justified... how is that even possible? Devastating.

Nothing for Brooklyn Nine-Nine either? Absurdity knows no bounds. Oh, at least Andre got a nom.

 

[March of the Crabs]

Rick and Morty is better than every comedy show on there.

Rick and Morty and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia are the two best comedy shows of this past decade and both got snubbed. At least Will Forte is getting some well-deserved love. Key and Peele are great too.

 

[Lord of Castamere]

Rick and Morty is better than every comedy show on there.

You speak the truth.

 

[Saucycarpdog]

Ben Mendelsohn better win best supporting actor. He deserves it for Bloodlines.

 

[Peru]

Anna Chlumskyyyyyy. She better get her dues

 

[-griffy-]

Justified got zero nominations for writing.

I thought for sure that was the one lock they had. At least a token writing nomination.

Shit, I don't think it got ANY noms, even in technical categories. Writing is a real travesty though.

 

[higgsboson1997]

Saul

No

Saul

I tried liking Saul, but couldn't :/

 

[shadowkat]

Yes for Tatiana Maslany!

Also happy to see Tituss Burgess get nominated. Pinooot Nooooiirrr!

 

[MarauderShields]

"Game of Thrones" as drama is garbage after the hack job D&D did with their source material last season. the best parts of the show have always been the ones they took word for word out of the book, they're changing stuff from the book and it's not nearly as good.

Whether it deserves to be nominated has nothing to do with how good of a job they did converting the book. It has be judged on its own and with that said it didn't deserve it this year.

 

[Walpurgis]

Veep and Better Call Saul (and the actors/actresses) must win everything to keep the universe in balance.

 

[WyndhamPrice]

Rick and Morty is better than every comedy show on there.

The second season hasn't even premiered yet, so it won't be in the discussion until next year.

Last season was eligible for last year's awards, it's not in play this year.

 

[Goodstyle]

No Jane the Virgin? Really?

 

[Savitar]

Tatiana Maslany for all the awards.

Seriously go look at her roles in Orphan Black, you will be amazed.

 

[Meier]

Yeah!

Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program - 2015

Naked & Afraid!

 

[Jay Shadow]

Very cool to see Tatiana Maslany get a nom, but I really don't expect her to win.

I'm just glad she's nominated. Although, I do think she at least has a slight chance because Episode 6 was pretty much the most stacked acting episode of all time this season.

Spoiler

Tortured captive Sarah
Untrusting Cosima interfering with lesbian romance, and does a little science along the way
Twerking gangsta Allison
Scorpion eating Helena coming to the rescue
Scorpion that gets eaten
Beth hallucination
Aphasia stricken Rachel getting bullied by Felix and crying about being alone

All packed into one episode. That's gotta cover most of the Emmy checkboxes.

 

[kris.]

Tituss got a nom, fuck yeah!

 

[Ghost23]

The second season hasn't even premiered yet, so it won't be in the discussion until next year.

Last season was eligible for last year's awards, it's not in play this year.

Either way it won't be nominated because it's animated unfortunately.

 

[Chezzymann]

Rick and Morty is better than every comedy show on there.

They should just change it to 'live action comedy' because that's pretty much what it really is

 

[Ikaran]

No nominations for Looking was expected but still sad Lauren Weedman and Russell Tovey are great in it, I hope they can manage to pull out some nomination with the TV-movie next year.

 

[munchie64]

Tatiana Maslany nominated.

At last.

Tatiana Maslany ... FINALLY

TATIANA MASLANY

This is really the first time? Shiet...

 

[Dalek]

Ben Mendelsohn was fantastic in Bloodline and I hope he wins best supporting.

I'm watching this show now and I completely agree. This guy is fucking dynamite. What a performance and what a role.

I'm happy for all the Netflix nominations. To think that NBC passed on Kimmy Schmidt and now it's nominated for an Emmy.

 

[hamchan]

HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

GRACE OF MONACO GOT NOMINATED FOR BEST TV MOVIE THIS IS THE GREATEST THING THAT'E EVER HAPPENED

What the hell... are there really so little TV movies made these days that they had to nominate a universally panned movie?

[Palmer_v1]

I'm so torn between Andre Braugher and Titus Burgess.

 

[sora87]

It's actually pathetic how badly Penny Dreadful got snubbed here.

 

[anaron]

holy fuck at Tatiana finally getting her due!!

and yaaaay for Viola and Taraji!

 

[Goodstyle]

I'm so torn between Andre Braugher and Titus Burgess.

Just remember Holt's "Am I okay" speech, that should clear you of all your doubts.

 

[blueteainfusion]

Happy for Tatiana, that nomination was overdue.

Lack of Hannibal was expected (not eligible this year), but The Americans?? Seriously.

I really hoped Jane the Virgin would get some nods. At least for Gina Rodriguez, although Jamie Camil sooo deserves a nom too.

Surprised at the lack of Ruth Wilson. The Affair may not turned as great as it had appeared in the pilot, but she was excellent. Hope at least for a Main Title nomination.
EDIT: ...which it didn't get. Also, they can nominate Daredevil for the Main Title, but had snubbed Hannibal?? Where's the logic?

All in all: meh. Golden Globes are always more interesting anyway, they take more chances.

 

[anaron]

so pleased with Amy Schumer and Lisa Kudrow noms, too.


of course, the lack of Hannibal, Rectify are rage inducing

lol at Mad Men's competition.

If you looked at the overall Emmy list you'd think most TV today was crap. I mean, Downton Abbey? Game of thrones? Homeland? Really? Really?

Where's The Knick, man?
