Emmy Nominations

Emmy rules dictate that the number of nominee slots be a fraction of the number of shows submitted, which is why only three shows (out of 13 submissions) were nominated this year. As Variety‘s Michael Schneider writes, the TV Academy is already allowing YouTube shows like Hot Ones to submit, so why not video podcasts like the Kelce Brothers’ New Heights, too? [via TV Tattle]

As Jazz Tangcay notes in Variety, the SNL star’s fourth nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series today sealed his place in Emmy history.

As Deadline’s Peter White writes, Meyers has a chance to finally take home Emmy gold for his fan-favorite digital series, but he’ll have to beat Kimmel, Fallon, and Desi Lydic first.
