FX’s “The Americans” Finally Earns Major Emmy Nominations

“This unique show, with no genre behind it – just honest character exploration, surprises me over and over”, actor Bob Odenkirk, who also received a nomination for lead actor in a drama, said of the show. “My feet haven’t touched the ground yet”. Maybe no one at the Emmys is watching it because it’s on Lifetime – and I get it. (Sorry, Ian McShane.) None of the nominations was for a lead category – although “GOT” is such an ensemble show, every role is essentially a supporting one.

Neame says, “It got half a bottle of champagne all over my office furniture, but it does work”.

“It’s hard to quantify a monetary benefit for an Emmy nomination”, Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst at ComScore, said. It aired on NBC a year ago and featured live performances of songs from her earth-shattering comeback album, “25”. “Lemonade” is also up for outstanding picture editing for a variety special and production design for a variety, nonfiction, event or award special. But the series has never been a particularly strong ratings draw, and this spring FX announced a renewal that will allow the producers to wrap up the show after two more seasons.

The Emmy Award nominations for the funniest men and women on television have been announced. He was nominated for his role as Dre on “black-ish”.

“Game of Thrones” gets the chance to win its second top Emmy, while “Veep”, last year’s top comedy victor, also will get another shot at holding office and with 17 nominations was the comedy leader. It will also compete for outstanding directing for a variety special; lighting direction for a variety special; and technical direction, camerawork, video control for a limited series, movie or special.

Limited Series or Movie, Lead Actor: Bryan Cranston, “All the Way”; Idris Elba, “Luther”; Benedict Cumberbatch, “Sherlock: The Abominable Bride”; Tom Hiddleston, “The Night Manager”; Courtney B. Vance, “The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story“; Cuba Gooding Jr., “The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story“.

The People vs O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, which aired on BBC Two in the United Kingdom, dominated nominations in the acting categories.

United States talk show host Jimmy Kimmel will present the 68th Emmy Awards in Los Angeles on September 18. Like “The Good Wife”, which was overlooked, the period drama aired its series finale earlier this year.

Outstanding Drama Series: “Better Call Saul”, “Downton Abbey”, “Game of Thrones”, “Homeland, “House of Cards”, “Mr. Robot”, “The Americans.” 3″.

On the comedy side, “Veep”, “black-ish” and “Master of None” will tussle for the trophy with five-time champ “Modern Family”, “Transparent”, “Silicon Valley” and “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”.

Corden’s Late Late Show will take on Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Real Time with Bill Maher, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and Jerry Seinfield’s Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee for outstanding talk series. There’s so much to love and despise about this year’s nominees, but below we’ve chosen the most exciting (and egregious) of the bunch. It earned lead acting nominations for stars Anthony Anderson (his second nod) and Tracee Ellis Ross (her first). The network received 94 nominations. “Game of Thrones” has the most chances to win big on Emmy night with a staggering 23 nominations.

The reading of the Emmy nominations has begun.

Other nominees included Indian-American Aziz Ansari for his debut Netflix comedy “Master of None”, Egyptian-American Rami Malek for “Mr. Robot” and black actresses Taraji P. Henson for Fox’s hip-hop series “Empire” and Viola Davis in ABC’s thriller “How to Get Away with Murder”.

The stage is set and the last sound checks are underway. But, before his co-host, “Gilmore Girls” star Lauren Graham, could finish pronouncing his name, Anderson belted an exuberant “wooh”. And compared to the Oscars, this year’s Emmy slate is a much better reflection of America at large – and the medium the awards represent at its best.

The bulk of the Primetime Emmys will be presented at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards Sept. 10-11, also at the Microsoft Theater.

“Game of Thrones” and “Veep” are among the top contenders for the 68th Primetime Emmy nominations. Better late than never, especially given that few shows managed to break into the top categories so far into their runs.
