Netflix series dominate 2020 Emmys nominee list (FULL LIST)

Netflix’s American superhero series, ‘The Watchmen,’ secured the highest Emmy Award nominations with a record 26 entries. The award organisers revealed the full list of nominees at a virtual ceremony streamed live on Tuesday.

The announcement saw Netflix, a US-based streaming giant, also break the record for most nominations in a single year, scoring 160 in total.

Netflix’s series “Ozark,” “The Crown” “Unbelievable,” and “Unorthodox,” as well as its comedies “Dead to Me” and “The Kominsky Method,” and its competition series, “Nailed It,” all bagged nominations.

Netflix overtook its biggest rival, HBO, which previously held the record for most nominations with 137 nominations in 2019.

This year, HBO snagged 107 nominations.

HBO suffered from the absence of a former Emmys favourite, Game of Thrones, which concluded in 2019 after its eighth season.

All thanks to the COVID-19 outbreak, other streaming services also raked in nominations this year.

Amazon Prime Video’s “Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” earned 20 nominations and Disney+, which launched in November, scored 19 total nominations including one for best drama series for “The Mandalorian.”

Apple TV+, also a first-time nominee, garnered 18 nominations and Quibi tallied 10.

The nominees were unveiled by Leslie Jones (“SNL”), Laverne Cox (“Orange is the New Black”), Josh Gad (“Frozen”) and Tatiana Maslany (“Orphan Black”) Tuesday morning and the ceremony is set for Sept. 20.

The 2020 Emmy Awards will air on ABC at 8 p.m. on September 20.
