Here are the 2020 Emmy Nominations

Did your favorite TV show make it?

The Emmys are set to take place later this year on September 20th, 2020. But that doesn’t  mean we can’t see the nominations! Here are some of the most notable (in my opinion) nominations that should get the recognition they deserve.

The Good Place got nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series. This four season show stars Kristin Bell and has an amazing plot and dialogue. It starts off with four humans who adjust to entering heaven, or in other words the “Good Place”. D’arcy Carden who plays Janet in the show also got nominated for Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series.

There’s a reason why The Daily Show with Trevor Noah received a nomination for Outstanding Variety Talk Series. Originally from South Africa, Trevor Noah displays an unique and captivating perspective in many of the events that take place in our world today.

Taking the intimidating task of taking over the daily show from former host Jon Stewart; Trevor Noah has undoubtedly made the transition very easy. Trevor Noah notably incorporates the importance of advocating for the voiceless and raising awareness on important issues.

If you haven’t had the pleasure of knowing, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is a three season comedy-drama about Miriam “Midge” Maisel. She has everything you’d think you’d want: a perfect husband, two growing kids, and an elegant apartment in Upper West Side New York in the late 1950s. But as time passes, she realizes there is a whole realm of comedy and humor which she fascinately is admirably good at. Throughout the show, you see her journey in discovering herself and her formerly unknown talent. Rachel Brosnahn, who plays the truly marvelous Mrs. Maisel was nominated for Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. As well as Alex Borstein (Susie Myerson) and Marin Hinkle (Rose Weissman) receiving nominations for Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series and William Jackson Harper who plays Chidi Anagonye got a nomination Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series.

Sitcom Black-ish has aired since 2014 and is currently renewed for a seventh season. Anthony Anderson who played Andre “Dre” Johnson Sr. was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series. As well as Tracee Ellis Ross (Rainbow Johnson) received a nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. This heartwarming show displays the life of a couple with five children and the their journey raising them.
