Pretty happy Rachel Bloom (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) and Gina Rodriguez (Jane the Virgin) got nominated (in Gina's case, again) but I'm going to be rooting more for Rachel this year since Gina won last year.
Also great to see Mr.Robot's nominations, that was my favorite and arguably best show of the summer.

can't tell if serious.
he already hosted it and killed it.
these awards are notoriously relaxed as everyone is dining and drinking so you're wrong.

Will end up getting the 30 rock treatment
wait WTF??????
Jamie Lee Curtis nominated for Scream Queens but not Emma Roberts?!
Chanel Oberlin was the stand out character this season, every scene with her was gold. Emma deserved that nom.
this. so much. I feel like they made a huge mistake there.
Also Martian in Comedy seems very odd.

Scream Queens is garbage and shouldn't be nominated for anything.
the studio gets to decide what category it is (and will most likely win) still, right? like when tourist went in for comedy/musical

Yup this movie was horrible. All star cast too. It was boring.

Show us on the doll where Chad Radwell banged you like he's never banged anybody else.
Hotel is the best season since Asylum, so why would they?
Or Straight Outta Compton
But nice to see a movie like Mad Max get love anad Idris Elba def should win for Beasts of no nation

Louie hasn't been any good for a few seasons now.
Not sure why anyone is acting like Golden Globe nominations mean anything though. Personally I just get a kick out of them because they're always so goofy.
as is the stinking pile Empire. LOL what a shitshow
Well that's wrong, but I'll agree about nominations ultimately meaning nothing. Still, it's fun to talk about on forums :]

My girlfriend is freaking out over Outlander. She's been so into that show lately. Glad it see it got some nominations.
Should've gotten a miniseries nod easily.
At least Oscar Isaac is up for best miniseries actor.
Fuck yes at Maura Tierney getting a best supporting actress nod for The Affair.

it certainly felt light hearted and had zero tension to it so sure.

Glad we're seeing a more diverse year in terms of acting/picture split - but the lack of a BP or Direction nod for Creed makes my heart sad.
Additionally, the awards conglomorate has continued on their quest to ignore the existance of The Leftovers and Hannibal.
But overall, a good year of nominations. Smaller preformances (like Shannon in Homes or Vikander in Machina) got some attention, and Mad Max nabbed a deserved spot despite competing in the more crowded Drama category.

Happy for the Mad Max, Mr Robot and Stallone getting nominations. I'd be happy with either Spotlight or Mad Max winning best drama.
Biggest snub for me.

The amount of love Mad Max is getting in top 10 lists and with noms makes me think it might actual get nods from the Academy.

Wait, am I missing something. Why are they doing this? Just to get money to campaign Academy voters? Seems super sketchy.
Joy?
Really?
Christ...are we sure the HFPA isn't on the take again?
It feels like another "The Tourist" scenario - they nominate to guarantee that Lawrence and Russell will show up.
I love a lot of the other choices though - Ruffalo in Polar Bear is fantastic and I thought would be completely overlooked and seeing Dano nominated is nice because he carries that entire movie. I still feel Jason Mitchell is being looked over way too easily.

Yeah, I'm pleasantly surprised by it as well.
A Best Picture nomination seems pretty likely at this point, though I doubt it has any chance of winning it.

What's sketchy about it? That's how it works. It is especially important for "smaller" films that don't have a notable American distributor behind them. Having a "presence" in LA and NY, screening the film, talking to people about the film, etc. is massively important.

Maybe it is, but to crowdfund it seems weird to me. Good luck to them though.

Really upset Jason Segel probably won't even get nominated for The End of the Tour during award season. He was phenomenal in the film.
