Snub: No Love for Yellowjackets
Genre shows often struggle to win over the critics, and that was certainly the case with the most recent seasons of Yellowjackets, which only received one nomination.
Surprise: Loki Love
Despite the critics’ dismay of genre shows, Disney’s Loki managed to break through and scored four nominations, including the coveted best drama series nod.
Snub: Brian Cox for Best Actor (Drama Series)
Two Succession stars received nominations for the best actor in a drama series, but Brian Cox wasn’t one of them.
Surprise: Ramón Rodríguez for Best Actor (Drama Series)
Brian Cox’s omission is especially surprising when you take into consideration that Ramón Rodríguez received a nod in the best actor category for his role in ABC’s overlooked drama Will Trent.
Snub: Only Murders in the Building
It was quite a shocker to see Only Murders in the Building miss out on the best comedy nomination and only get two nods thanks to Steve Martin and Meryl Streep.
Surprise: Justified: City Primeval
If you haven’t seen Justified: City Primeval, you’re not alone, but that didn’t stop its stars Timothy Olyphant and Aunjanue Ellis from getting acting nominations for their performances in this series.

Snub: This Is Us
This Is Us used to be Emmy’s darling, but those days are long behind us. Its final season was largely shut out by the Television Academy, with Sterling K. Brown and Mandy Moore failing to score nods for their amazing performances.
Surprise: Sydney Sweeney
Fans of Euphoria were pushing for Sydney Sweeney to receive an Emmy nod ever since the second season came out. She exceeded everyone’s wildest expectations and became a double nominee with Euphoria and The White Lotus.
Snub: Selena Gomez
Only Murders in the Building received a total of 17 nominations at this year’s Emmys, but the Television Academy didn’t show Selena Gomez any love for her performance.
Surprise: Abbott Elementary
Abbott Elementary deserves every word of praise coming its way, but it was still a shocker to see Emmy voters fully embrace this broadcast network series in the era of streaming.
Snub: Acclaimed Comedies
It’s amazing to see Abbott Elementary get so much acclaim, but many critically acclaimed comedies weren’t so lucky, including Atlanta, Black-ish, and Reservation Dogs.
Surprise: Yellowjackets
Yellowjackets is one of Showtime’s biggest hits in recent memory, but it was still a huge surprise to see it embraced by Emmys and receive multiple nominations for its rookie season including outstanding drama.
