20 Very Good TV Shows That Didn't Get A Single Emmy Nomination This Year

We get it: There's too much TV these days.

It's hard to get too worked up about Emmy snubs when there are dozens of channels and hundreds of shows out there competing for a precious few nomination slots. And we're happy to see the very worthy shows and performances that were honored at this year's Emmy nominations. (Yay, Abbott Elementary! Bravo, Rhea Seehorn!) But still, we're a little dumbfounded that there are quite a few quality TV shows out there that somehow managed to not earn a single Emmy nomination in any category. Like, not even one.

So to work through our annual angst, we here at TVLine decided to put together this list of some of our favorite shows, from highly rated broadcast comedies to critically acclaimed streaming gems, that didn't land any Emmy nominations at all this year. Maybe Emmy voters didn't even know these shows existed, and this will be the nudge they need to nominate them next year? Well, we can hope, anyway.

Read on to see which shows deserved better from this year's Emmy nominations — even a token nod in the technical categories would have been nice — and then hit the comments to let us know which of your favorite shows got shut out, too.

CBS' freshman comedy about a newlywed couple haunted by a host of misfit spirits scared up great reviews and big ratings — but its chances for an Emmy this year are dead as a doornail.

FX/Hulu's comedy about a quartet of criminally inclined Indigenous teens in rural Oklahoma nabbed great reviews and a Peabody Award, but couldn't snatch a single Emmy nod.

Zero Emmy love for this deliciously scary Paramount+ drama? We're gonna say the devil did it.

What reward does Kevin Costner's hit Paramount Network drama get for massive ratings? An Emmy nomination slate that has tumbleweeds rolling through it.

If you've missed this thoroughly charming HBO Max comedy about an aimless millennial who starts dating a famous movie star... well, you have something in common with Emmy voters.

Hailee Steinfeld's Marvel series Hawkeye did score a pair of Emmy nominations this year, but no such luck for her alt-history literary comedy on Apple TV+. Zero total nominations in three seasons, in fact!

Peacock's girl-group throwback serves up plenty of quotable one-liners each week, but its Emmy haul is looking a lot like the titular group's Grammy haul — i.e., nonexistent.

Emmy voters seem to have a serious blindspot when it comes to Paramount+'s zany legal drama: It's only earned a pair of technical music nominations across five seasons, with none at all this year. Can we sue?

Sandra Oh scored her fourth Emmy nomination in the lead drama actress category for Killing Eve's final season, but her brainy Netflix campus comedy — which we'd argue was actually a lot better — came away empty-handed.

No nominations? In this climate? This riotously funny, tragically underrated HBO Max comedy would have plenty of sharp, satirical jokes to say about its lack of Emmy success — which is a silver lining, we guess.

An Emmy nod for Samuel L. Jackson in Apple TV+'s heart-wrenching time-travel drama seemed like a shoo-in — but alas, he got snubbed, along with the whole series.

Jason Katims never got the Emmy love he deserved for Friday Night Lights and Parenthood, so it shouldn't surprise us that voters ignored his big-hearted Prime Video dramedy about a trio of neurodivergent twentysomethings, too.

Prime Video's supernatural Western starring Josh Brolin blew our minds with a host of WTF metaphysical mysteries — but sadly, that didn't earn it any acreage in this year's Emmys slate.

Amy Schumer racked up plenty of Emmy nominations for her Comedy Central sketch show Inside Amy Schumer. But when she got serious for her heartfelt Hulu rom-com? Not so much.

Maybe Emmy voters were put off by the subject matter of HBO Max's grimy '70s porn comedy, but they missed out on a delightful and poignant slice of publishing history.

This rock-steady ABC sitcom about siblings with wildly different financial outlooks just keeps plugging along without any major award recognition — but we see you, Jimmy Tatro.

We were pulling for comedian Bridget Everett to get a nod for her career-best work in HBO's midlife crisis dramedy. But at least it got renewed, so Emmy voters will get a second crack at it.

Peacock's reimagining of the cheesy '90s classic was actually a lot smarter and funnier than it had any right to be, but that didn't help it earn any Emmy nods... or avoid cancellation, either.

The Emmys lavished plenty of nominations on the original 1988-93 run of this sentimental sitcom, but the ABC reboot's freshman season got shut out entirely.

The Emmys only nominated two shows for Outstanding Variety Sketch Series — Saturday Night Live and A Black Lady Sketch Show — and still they couldn't find room for the excellent return of one of sketch comedy's all-time best ensembles on Prime Video? We feel like crushing some heads.
