Re: 6 Nominees - Coming Soon?

I don't think they will. One of the primary reasons the TV Academy made the change was that there were a LOT of great shows with a lot of great stars and they just weren't all getting nominated. It's debatable as to the quality of the nominees, but let's just say that they have a wider array to choose from. Strong female characters and strong male characters make it easier to fill out. Some years you don't have that with the Academy.

6 Nominees - Coming Soon?

Post by dbensics »

You may have noticed in the recent Emmy nominations listings that the television Academy has six nominees in all the acting categories.

They upped the number from five in 2009.

One wonders if we should expect AMPAS to follow suit sometime in this decade and increase the number of nominees from five to six in the acting categories.

I wouldn't be pleased if they did but it wouldn't surprise me either.
