Emmy Nominations: ‘SNL,’ ‘Westworld,’ ‘FEUD’ and ‘Stranger Things’ Lead Pack
Nominations were announced on Thursday morning for the 69th Primetime Emmy Awards, to be held Sunday, Sept. 17 at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.
CBS will broadcast the ceremony live, with The Late Show‘s Stephen Colbert serving as host.
NBC’s Saturday Night Live and HBO’s Westworld led the pack with 22 total nods each, followed by FX’s FEUD: Bette and Joan and Netflix’s Stranger Things, which netted 18 apiece. Veep racked up 17 noms, while Big Little Lies and Fargo amassed 16 each.
Among platforms, HBO as usual came out on top with 110 total nominations, followed by Netflix (91) and NBC (60). Rounding out the Top 5 are FX (54) and ABC (34).
TVLine has detailed the major nominees below. Your job, as opinionated consumers of TV, is to storm the Comments section with gushes of glee… or eruptions of righteous outrage! (Reminder: Orphan Black, Game of Thrones and Twin Peaks were NOT eligible this year, while last summer’s Orange Is the New Black Season 4 WAS.)
