Nothing against past "ages," but saying we live in "The Golden Age of Television" (cable, streaming etc.) is not only a dramatic understatement but also pretty much a given – almost a cliche – at this point. Today, shows that are forgotten about and slow-die on the vine are the same shows that probably would've […]

The 2018 Emmy nominations happened this morning for what will be the 70th Annual awards show celebrating the best in television excellence.

We're still a ways off from the 2018 Emmys, but there was a big piece of news that maybe you missed (we're embarrassed to admit we TOTALLY did).  The nominations don't happen until July 12th, but we know who's hosting the 70th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards come September. Saturday Night Live head writers and Weekend Update anchors Colin Jost […]

As if two Academy Award winners wasn't enough, HBO is stacking the deck for the second season of their Emmy-winning limited series Big Little Lies with none other than Meryl Streep.

After three shows and seven nominations, it's easy to understand The Handmaid's Tale star Elisabeth Moss's adrenaline rush of excitement over having finally won her first Emmy — and it showed.

In a day and age when the very concept of privacy is almost non-existent, when our personal information is made available to the highest bidder, it helps us to sleep soundly at night knowing that there is a champion out there like Stephen Colbert crusading for our rights. Okay… maybe not our rights. More like […]

The Emmy nominations came out yesterday, and there's some really great stuff on there (RuPaul's Drag Race got eight Emmy nominations! I'm sorry, I freakin' love that show), but there was one very noticeable absence: there was not a single nomination for FX's critically acclaimed X-Men adaptation Legion. Based on the character of David Haller (AKA […]

Rob Bradfield writes … While The Walking Dead has always been a perennial Emmy Award nominee when it comes to technical nods, nominations in the higher profile categories (acting, directing, writing and outstanding series) still remain elusive. Despite a strong season six, not a lot changed in 2016 for AMC's genre juggernaut. But thanks to […]
