Emmy - finally...
Aug. 26th, 2014 02:46 pm... Sherlock gets some recognition in the actors categories as both Cumberbatch and Freeman take away the awards. I'm really happy about that!
It's just a shame that Peter Dinklage didn't get one for his work on Game of Thrones this year. He was simply amazing.
FWIW, I think that one or 2 awards should be enough for long-running series - longer running series are nominated every year and take away the possibility of shorter running ones getting nominated. Think Mad Men, all the Comedy-nominees... even Breaking Bad. That's a bit annoying because there are tons of other series that don't get any recognition because the nomination-slots are filled up with those top dogs, even if they decline in later seasons. But at least this was the final year for Breaking Bad, so that opens up one slot (perhaps for Hannibal?!?).
