default-featured-image

Nominations for the 69th Emmy Awards were announced today by the Television Academy, and for horror fans there were quite a few bright spots. Getting the more mainstream details out of the way first, “Saturday Night Live” and “Westworld” led the tally for the most nominations (22) in all categories, followed by “FEUD: Bette and Joan” (19), “Stranger Things” (18), and “Veep” (17). Leading the nominations in totals by platform were HBO (110), Netflix (91), and NBC (60).

The 69th Emmy Awards will be telecast live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, CA, on Sunday, September 17 (8:00-11:00 PM ET/5:00-8:00 PM PT) on CBS. Stephen Colbert will serve as host. The Creative Arts Emmy Awards will air on Saturday, September 16, at 8:00 PM ET/PT on FXX.

As mentioned above, horror hit “Stranger Things” was a breakout nominee, and below you’ll find out all the categories in which the show is nominated as well as what other genre shows (such as “American Gods,” “The Walking Dead,” “Penny Dreadful,” “American Horror Story: Roanoke,” and Black Mirror,” among a few others that should be of interest to DC readers) will be joining it at the big dance in September.  Best of all?  Barb finally gets her due!
