Knee-jerk reactions: Funny how sometimes OITNB is a comedy, sometimes it’s a drama. “The Walking Dead” fans are going to be ticked that it was left out again — especially with AMC new kid (even though it’s a “Breaking Bad” spinoff) “Better Call Saul” getting attention. Once again, cable is king — with Netflix as the prince and the networks still lowly subjects picking up occasional nods. Good for “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” for its nominations, which should give the Netflix comedy more attention. Congrats to Jon Hamm for showing range with both drama and comedy nominations. Good for “Game of Thrones” for getting multiple supporting actor/actress nods, although … yeah, maybe that’s fair. There are no real “lead” actors or actresses, it’s a true ensemble. Props to the “Freak Show” crowd for dominating the limited series category. And, wait, is that Tatiana Maslany FINALLY being nominated for “Orphan Black”? Hallelujah! Maybe “The Americans” fans will get to feel that un-snubbed magic next time.
Andy Samberg is hosting the Emmys, which will air September 20 on FOX. There are more Emmy nominations in the writing/directing/technical categories here.
How do you feel about the nominations this year?
