Emmy nominations 2019: See if your favorite shows make the cut
The nominations for the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards are in many ways about endings, even before the nomination process began.
That’s because so many of the favorites this year are shows that have completed their runs.
HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” which holds the record for most rimetime Emmy wins with 47, wrapped up with Season 8 in May (HBO is owned by CNN’s parent company).
Likewise, Julia Louis-Dreyfus has dominated the Emmys in years past with her role as Selina Meyer on “Veep.” She has taken home the statue for outstanding lead actress in a comedy series six times, making her the performer with the most Emmys for a single role.
“Veep” also ended in May, after seven seasons.
Jim Parsons has earned four Emmys for outstanding lead actor in a comedy series for playing Sheldon Cooper in the CBS sitcom “The Big Bang Theory.
After 12 seasons, the series bid viewers farewell this spring.
Nominations will be announced Tuesday at 11:30 a.m. EST. Check back for a full list of nominees.
