This year’s Emmy nominations have just been revealed in a colossal 118-category megadump. So with this in mind, let me be the first to say that Survivor was absolutely robbed blind for outstanding sound mixing for a reality program. Its lack of a nomination deserves nothing but scorn, and the 26,000 members of the television academy deserve to hang their heads in shame.
But, on the slim off-chance that you didn’t come here for an explosive 800-word screed about the injustice of failing to recognise a 26-year-old television programme in a category I didn’t know existed until about 15 minutes ago, the Emmys fortunately managed to ignore a wealth of bigger shows, too. Chiefly I’m talking about Stranger Things here.
