Here, there are really only three locks. Even in its old age, I can’t see Modern Family not getting nominated. I can see Big Bang Theory getting left out, but there are five shows I think competing for three spots, … Continue reading Emmy Watch: Best Comedy Series
We might actually get a few new names here in this category. Definitely Aziz Ansari, whose Master Of None looks to put him as a lock. It’s one of the few times where a new nominee would be considered a … Continue reading Emmy Watch: Best Actor In A Comedy

It’s a foregone conclusion that Julia Louis-Dreyfus will be nominated for Veep. And, if Emmy voters don’t get on board with Ellie Kemper in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, then they’re insane. Amy Poehler should get love thrown her way for her … Continue reading For Your Consideration: Best Actor/Actress In A Comedy
Oh, definitely Jon Hamm for Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. And how could the Emmy voters pass on Mel Brooks for The Comedians? There’s always some SNL hosts in the mix, and Louie CK and Bill Hader could be in the mix. … Continue reading For Your Consideration: Comedy Guest Actor/Actress
As I start my annual Emmy wishlist, I remember that the Emmy voters quite frequently get it wrong and turn their noses up at shows that the public is embracing. In other words, get ready for more Downton Abbey nominations, … Continue reading For Your Consideration: Emmy Best Supporting Actor/Actress In A Comedy
Last night, the big debut was Jane The Virgin, which opened to 1.6M viewers and a 0.7 in the demo. Not only did it build on lead in The Originals (1.3M/0.7), but it also doubled the audience from last years … Continue reading ‘Jane The Virgin’ Opens Solid, Builds On ‘Originals’
