The 71st Primetime Emmys Nominations were announced yesterday and indeed Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Fleabag got its proper props for being one of the best comedies around today with 11 nominations. Barry continues to score noms with a very impressive nominations in its second season and Russian Doll scored real big on its first time out with 13.
Also, we’re glad to see that Hannah Gadsby’s groundbreaking comedy special Nanette got nominated (as it absolutely should have) and Megan Amram’s quest to “moneyball” her way into an Emmy with her meta web series “An Emmy For Megan” gets closer with a few more nominations this year.
Normally, we don’t do snubs, but, really though, Desus & Mero should have gotten nominated for the late-night-world-disrupting they’re doing over at Showtime.
