Let's discuss, shall we? (This photo makes me laugh. Anthony Anderson is like, "HERE!" when his name is called, and Lauren Graham and her cute jacket are just delighted.) I am BEYOND delighted that finally *The Americans* got the love it has deserved for so long, and -- most importantly, obviously -- I am thrilled by how many Hot Dudes I Want To Ogle will be present at the festivities. Idris! Rami Malek! Kyle Chandler! Max von Sydow (just kidding. Well, I mean, he *is* nominated, and I'm sure he will look smashing)! Dinklage! Harington![ MY BELOVED STERLING K BROWN](https://www.gofugyourself.com/tag/the-people-vs-oj-simpson?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)! Matthew Rhys! Hiddles AND Cumbercrashcart! (Which, of course, means Taylor will attend, if Swizzleston is still afoot.) Keegan-Michael Key! I am ALSO pleased by the number of Women Who Might Wear Something Interesting who were nominated: Kiki Dunst! Kerry Washington! Beyonce! (*Lemonade* got four nominations, because it premiered on HBO; I feel like someone at Beyonce HQ -- very possibly Bey herself -- realized this was an excellent way to get that E in EGOT) Sarah Paulson! Tracee Ellis Ross! Taraji P Henson! Keri Russell! You guys, is it possible that the Emmys *finally got it right?* [You can see the complete list of nominees here ](https://www.emmys.com/awards/nominees-winners?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)\--also I always enjoy seeing the headshots that are chosen to accompany each actor on the Emmys website there. Like, Brandycream Cucumbersalad's is a headshot from the last *Star Trek* movie, and Cuba Gooding Jr's is a random shot of him at a premiere someone nabbed from Getty -- but, for ease of use, here are the major ones we might want to discuss. There are...A LOT of them: **Outstanding Drama Series** *The Americans* *Better Call Saul* *Downton Abbey* *Game of Thrones* *Homeland* *House of Cards* *Mr. Robot* **Outstanding Comedy Series** *Modern Family* *Silicon Valley* *Transparent* *Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt* *Veep* *Master of None* *Black-ish* **Outstanding Limited Series** *American Crime* *The Night Manager* *Fargo* *The People v.
