While 2020 threw movies into chaos,????? ???????? ????? television and particularly streaming thrived on people around the world staying home. Despite ongoing delays in production and a delay in deadlines, the 2020 Emmys will proceed as scheduled.
HBO's Watchmenled with 26 nominations after being completely shut out of the Golden Globe Awards in January. That includes everything from costuming to sound mixing and a handful of acting nominations for Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Regina King, and more.
The main comedy and drama categories featured a lot of usual suspects — The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, The Handmaid's Tale, The Crown — but with welcome additions like Insecure, Dead to Me, and Disney's The Mandalorian.
