As every year at the end of July, we got to know this year’s list of nominees for the Emmy 2020 gala. Netflix is the leader this time. The productions of the streaming giant have collected as many as 160 nominations this year. We cool down the enthusiasm right away, the Witcher was not among them , but even the third season of Stranger Things was distinguished thanks to the nomination for the award for the best drama series! The rulers of HBO can also speak of a great success. The station’s productions received a total of 106 nominations, and the limited series Watchmenbecame the biggest winner of the hand, gaining as many as 26 nominations in virtually all possible categories. Interestingly, this is the second-best ever result of the Emmy Awards. More nominations (36) were made only last year, the controversial eighth season of Game of Thrones . When it comes to fantasy, the nominees also include The Mandalorian (Best Drama Series and Best Guest Actor in a Drama Series for Giancarlo Esposito), What We Do in Hiding (Best Comedy Series) and Westworld (Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for Jeffrey Wright and Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for Thandie Newton).
