The 65th Primetime Emmy Awards nominations will be announced on Thursday, July 18th. Please refer to my Emmy musings for this category for a detailed analysis of the contenders, and, as always, chime in below in the comments with any thoughts of your own.
Last year’s nominees: The Big Bang Theory, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Girls, Modern Family, 30 Rock, Veep
The competition: Count out one of these shows for sure – “Curb Your Enthusiasm” – since it didn’t air this past year. Modern Family is too beloved to be snubbed, and 30 Rock is a lock for its final year. The Big Bang Theory is still on top and should make the cut, while Girls might be on thin ice but shouldn’t have a problem being nominated since it’s still hot. Veep might as well be nominated again since season two was great, and that leaves just one spot, which should go to the resurrected Arrested Development. It would be wonderful to see former nominee Parks and Recreation nominated again or the second and final season of Enlightened recognized, but I wouldn’t count on either of those happening. New Girl, Louie, and Episodes have all gotten Emmy love elsewhere, and they could break into the top race this year. There could also be farewell recognition for The Office or a late-breaking show of enthusiasm for Community.
The predicted nominees: Arrested Development, The Big Bang Theory, Girls, Modern Family, 30 Rock, Veep
The predicted winner: Modern Family
Next up: That’s it! Nominations will be announced on Thursday morning.
