Wow, Bob, Wow. I guess they shouldn’t have bothered. I do see other challenging TV nominated but a lot of nonsense too. I feel at least episode eight should have been nominated for something if not sound or some technical aspect. To have such a critically acclaimed show not get nominated seems an intentional slight.
Wait, I thought this read June 12th. Instead, the article says Jule 12th. I must have read the PDF of 2017’s nominees due to this error. 🙂
*July. Sorry for the typo.
Robert Knepper and Jim Belushi is great.
