Emmy Nominations 2020

Below is the list of this years Emmy Nominations in the major categories. I will cover this in much more detail leading up to September’s ceremony, including a full list of every category and its nominees, as well as predictions and much more.

Some of the initial reactions to this set of nominees are that it is was an absolute shock fest with some huge snubs and massive inclusions. Just as a starting point, the inexplicable snubs of Bob Odenkirk and Rhea Seehorn leave a huge sour taste in my mouth, but the surprise inclusions of Paul Mescal and Zendaya start to help make up for it.

Succession, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Watchmen, and others have garnered huge nominations across the board, and Stranger Things and The Mandalorian have absolutely shocked the world with their inclusions.
