ReplyDeleteThis season I only watched 2 of the ones above: GOT and The Americans, so I'm going with them. It's a shame there are so many great shows out there that are never even nominated.
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones
ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad
Downton Abbey
Homeland
House of Cards
Mad Men
I think these shows will be nominated, but I would substitute Justified and The Americans for Mad Men and Homeland personally.
The Americans
ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad
Boardwalk Empire
House of Cards
Mad Men
Game of Thrones
You don't think The Americans will be nominated?
ReplyDeleteThen you're definitely missing out. :P
ReplyDeleteThere are so many great shows this season. I'm personally hoping "The Americans" at least gets a nomination, even though I think it's unlikely to win, because they've had such a strong start. However, with such a strong set of dramas this year, there ARE going to be truly great shows that won't even get a spot on the ballot.
ReplyDeleteBates Motel, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Person of Interest and Boardwalk Empire.
ReplyDeleteP.S: It's time to create a new category for non-cable tv shows.
I love Game of Thrones, but I voted for Hannibal because OMG that show is sooooo good!
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones and Downtown Abbey
ReplyDeleteI'm on the fence because I think there are 8 shows in the running...
ReplyDeleteI do not see them leaving out Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, House of Cards or Mad Men. That leaves Downton Abbey and Mad Men... Maybe The Americans will replace Downton Abbey?
Personally I do not think Homeland deserves a spot and I have not watched this season of Mad Men yet so I cannot judge it.....I would love Justified to get in but doubt it will get the series love it deserves.
What do you think?
I would love to see The Americans get a nomination, but I'm not sure it has enough of a following yet compared to some of the others. It was critically praised all season, and so well done, but the ratings were never through the roof.
ReplyDeleteSuch a shame the show doesn't really gets the audience it deserves.
ReplyDeleteI think Mad Men, Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones are a given, as are probably Homeland and Boardwalk Empire. Thinking about it you might be right, I'm not sure The Americans could repace a show like Downton Abbey (yet).
ReplyDeleteI think Boardwalk Empire deserves a spot too I guess... I'm just not sure they will. Of the established shows it "feels" the weakest to me I guess.
ReplyDeleteSo maybe it comes down to:
Homeland or The Americans
Downton Abbey or Boardwalk Empire
There are just so many exceptional shows right now and only room for 6.... it is getting tougher now that more cable networks are striving to create top quality shows!!
Yup. I agree, although I guess that can be said about a lot of shows that are good but don't necessarily take off. Some of it just comes down to viewer taste.
ReplyDeleteWell my personal picks are Homeland, Breaking Bad, The Americans, Sons of Anarchy and Boardwalk Empire but unfortunately I don't have a ballot lol
ReplyDeleteLaw and Order: Special Victims Unit NEEDS to be on that list.
ReplyDeleteYeah true, I've seen a lot of people dismiss the show because it's told from a viewpoint of ''the enemy''.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I followed your discuss account. I always seems to miss your comments and read them way too late, for which I apologize. :)
WHERE IS GA? OR OUAT?
ReplyDeleteTHE GOOD WIFE
ReplyDeleteOther - Leave Comment
ReplyDeleteMy nominations: Mad Men, The Americans, Game of Thrones, Sons of Anarchy, Dexter and Hannibal.
ReplyDeleteMy predictions: Game of Thrones, Homeland, The Americans, The Good Wife, Breaking Bad and Mad Men.
Hannibal and Mad Men.
ReplyDeleteI tried to be realistic.
ReplyDeleteIn the place where it will remain: far away from nomination possibilities. Don't get me wrong, I watch OUAT, but it will never ever be nominated for the Emmys.
ReplyDeleteGame Of Thrones!
ReplyDeleteMy predictions: Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Homeland, House of Cards, Mad Men and The Americans
ReplyDeleteMy nominations: Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Justified, House of Cards, The Americans and Sons of Anarchy..
The Americans should win but I think Homeland is going to win
ReplyDeletereally, you seariously leave the two best shows of all tv (Bones and GA out of nominations), tv academy outranks cable shows, they should turn a lot of a hell more into regular networks shows
ReplyDeleteI look forward to more interesting discussions!
ReplyDeleteHouse of Cards is the most underestimated television show on at the moment. It trumps anything else on the list. I hope it wins so viewers wake up to it
ReplyDeleteMy Emmy wish list would be: Bates Motel, Dexter, Game of Thrones, Hannibal, Justified, and my "other" pick would be Elementary because Jonny Lee Miller is not the only one who did great work this season. (I've seen more talks about him being nominated than the show or the equally talented Lucy Lui.)
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones - WInner
ReplyDeleteHomeland
The Good Wife
Elementary
Arrow
Person of Interest
Sorry I'm not sorry. I'll be happy if two of my top three get nominated, the last three are just shows that I thought had excellent seasons despite what Academy snobs think.
I thought Justified was the best show of the year so I'd love to see that get nominated. The other 5 shows if like to see get nominated are The Newsroom, Game of Thrones, Homeland, Sons of Anarchy and Breaking Bad.
ReplyDeleteDexter deserves at least a nomination this year! It was AMAZING with the 7th season!
ReplyDeleteWhere's Person of Interest?
ReplyDeleteIt's either Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones (please no) or Homeland.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Orphan Black? It MUST be nominated :D
ReplyDeleteYeah, I miss those! When's the Americans coming back?
ReplyDeleteEdit: And what tool keeps voting us down? -_-''
Seriously!
ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad, Americans, Good Wife and GoT.
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Dexter, Hannibal and Homeland.
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias! Why is it so unloved?
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias should be on this list. Best acting on any show on TV today. Not to mention the scripts and cinematography are spellbinding
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias
ReplyDeleteWhy isn't The Borgias on this list? Best show of all time in my opinion and needs to be recognized! Amazing talent... amazing chemistry among all cast members! I vote THE BORGIAS!!!! savetheborgias. com
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias should be on the list.
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias should be recognized for season 3. It was absolutely phenomenal!
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias ! Why is it not listed ?
ReplyDeleteIt is, Other - Leave Comment
ReplyDeleteDEXTER! totally!
ReplyDeleteExcuse me, did you at least saw how great was Jennifer Carpenter this season 7, Is not only my opinion, websites like TV Line, Zap2it, and E! New put her in her Dream nominees for this 20013 EMMY's
ReplyDeleteThe borgias
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias
ReplyDeleteI will agree with future cult classic The Borgias. Love Downton, GOT and Homeland but I feel each has been better in previous seasons than this last.
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias!!!
ReplyDeleteWe want season 4. #SaveTheBorgias
The Borgias!!
ReplyDeleteI vote for the Borgias.
ReplyDeleteTHE BORGIAS !! A rare jewel filled with masterful plot, costumes, acting & storyline based on historical facts. A brilliant 3 seasons w award deserving:
ReplyDeleteJEREMY IRONS,
FRANCOIS ARNAUD,
HOLLIDAY GRAINGER,
SEAN HARRIS &
NEIL JORDAN (creator, producer, writer, director, GENIUS)
It will be greatly missed!! Network cancelled it w/o a proper ending :( painful to the devoted, loyal fans... EMMYS to them ALL, please !
THE BORGIAS .... need I say more ??? ;-)
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more with this conversation guys...
ReplyDeleteI did see Carpenter in season 7, I just forgot about her, just like I think the critics will forget her too so she won't get any recognition.
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias
ReplyDeleteNo order:
ReplyDeleteThe Walking Dead
Homeland
Dexter
Scandal
Game of Thrones
The Americans
I am not voting for the good wife because even though the second half of the season was amazing, I felt like the first half was their weakest run of episodes so far, especially with the Kalinda storyline, hated that. So I took it out and placed the americans in instead, even though the show is still very young.
Scandal! Scandal! Scandal!
ReplyDeleteSherlock
ReplyDeleteUnexeptable that The Borgias, one of the most high standard quality series is not in the list.
ReplyDeleteFrancois Arnaud DESERVE at least (if not the winnig!) an Emmy Nomination for his terrific job, on giving Cesare a much more "Human" Character, with HUGE, TERRIBLE FLAWS, but nevertheless, a human being...Not a pure "monster", not pure evil..
It is Unexeptable that the most high standard quality series, The Borgias, are not in the list.
ReplyDeleteMoreover, Francois Arnaud,deserves AT LEAST a nomination, (if not the wining!) for his TERRIFIC PERFORMANCE, giving Cesare a
much more "Human" character, with HUGE TERRIBLE FLAWS, but nevertheless,
a human being ..not a pure monster, not pure evil..
BREAKING BADDDDD!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias Season 3. Absolutely epic.
ReplyDeleteHannibal.
ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad - winner, Homeland, Sons of Anarchy & Hannibal as they're the only one's I watch out of the list. I'd love to see Person of Interest and Scandal nominated as well.
ReplyDeleteThe Borgias - best writing, acting, costumes, lighting, sets.
ReplyDeleteCastle, Covert Affairs, or Major Crimes!!!
