2020 Emmy Nominations Revealed: Apple TV+ and Disney+ Make Their Debuts

The 2020 Emmy nominations are here, and though they strayed extremely far from our (admittedly very fanciful) wish list , they have provided a few interesting twists. The nominations were hosted by Leslie Jones, who very literally tried to scream some life into the virtual proceedings, as Laverne Cox, Josh Gad, and Tatiana Maslany read off the bulk of the nominees.

We’ll return shortly to provide more analysis into the nominations’ snubs and surprises, but for now, here is the list of the Emmy nominees from the major categories below.
