The 2019 Primetime Emmy Nominations are just a day away and after tough deliberations, I was finally able to get my FINAL PREDICTIONS on paper in hopes of being as accurate as possible in predicting the nominees voted for by the Television Academy.
Some of the series guaranteed to be nominated include Game of Thrones, Veep, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Barry and Killing Eve along with When They See Us, Chernobyl and Escape at Dannemora on the Limited Series side. That being said, there are huge questions looming over this years possible nominees. Will favorites like The Good Place, Fleabag, Schitt’s Creek, Sharp Objects and The Good Fight snag nominations, or will they be pushed aside for prior nominees? Below are my predictions.
