Richard Gadd’s Half Man was largely snubbed, except for Gadd picking up an Outstanding Supporting Actor nomination.
FX’s Alien: Earth was snubbed in the major categories, but picked up four craft nominations.
Some great surprises in the limited or anthology series category, like Peacock’s very spicy All Her Fault.
We love to see the double nominations for Matthew Rhys for Widow’s Bay and The Beast in Me.
Very excited to see Noah Wyle get his second nomination in a row for The Pitt.
We’ll have a more detailed breakdown for you in tomorrow’s edition.
The Emmys will air on NBC Monday, September 14th.
