The Emmys announced the 2017 nominees over a month ago. Seven drama series were specifically nominated for Best Drama. There are definitely some great shows the Emmy awards failed to recognize. However, the Emmys did choose some great shows for the Best Drama category. Here’s our ranking of the seven shows in contention for the title.
5This Is Us
NBC’s latest feel-good dramedy garnered a lot of love. It’s a fairly good show, though certainly on the melodramatic side. The show is built on familial love, and therefor very emotional. Many of the performances are defined by emotional scenes and tear-filled scenes. It sometimes feels repetitive and overly sentimental, but This Is Us does have genuine humor and solid storytelling.
