The nominations for the 69th Emmy awards were announced Thursday, July 13th. Unfortunately, they didn’t quite line up with our dream nominations. In fact, several phenomenal shows went completely overlooked. Many of the shows nominated are definitely deserving of love. However, many top comedies and dramas have been utterly snubbed. This list covers six such TV shows that deserve far more love than the Emmys are giving them.
4. The Leftovers
HBO’s drama The Leftovers may not be the most popular for the network. Many overlook the show, favoring pop culture staples like Game of Thrones or Westworld. However, the series should not be counted out. The series is a stunning piece of television, helmed by T.V. royalty Damon Lindelof. The Leftovers’ third and final season specifically got a lot of fan & critical love. The Emmys shutting it out in favor of freshman shows like Westworld and The Crown is downright preposterous. If nothing else, The Leftovers can join the ranks of other HBO shows The Emmys overlooked.
