Every acting nominee must submit one sample episode to Emmy voters. Programs competing for Best Drama and Comedy Series submit six. Voters are asked to watch these on line before checking off their ballots, but enforcement is not strictly policed. It’s an honor system.

Thank God both Baranski and Metcalf are submitting the same episode. I wouldn’t want to watch more episodes than needed of that show.
Baranski and Metcalf are the best part of that show. The only episodes of The Big Bang Theory I actually download on my computer are ones in which they appear. Two television legends. And I love their submission this year. However, (unfortunately), they are both equally good so there is bound to be a vote-split between the two.

If either wins, I suspect it’s Metcalf, given all of the buzz/attention about her three noms.

ReplyCopy URLI was not expecting this after the big deal made about Diana Rigg and Jason Sudeikis. With Henry Winkler, they actually replaced him with William H. Macy, unlike at the Oscars where they just leave the slot open. And to think that my sister and parents came over today and we had a marathon viewing party of the complete comedy guest actor category (slugfest coming Friday)!
As an irregular viewer of Veep, I had actually checked Martin Mull’s credits, but never checked MacNicol’s. And once I found out that Connie Britton was technically ineligible, I removed her from my predictions, willing fate to intervene.
As he and Mull were not listed on FYC materials by HBO, they probably submitted themselves and that is how this slipped by. Consider how HBO did not try to sneak Diana Rigg and also how they are not in the habit of submitting guests for some reason (Silicon Valley, The Leftovers, Game of Thrones for the most part, Veep last year).
Hopefully they change the rules next year so that people in exactly fifty percent of episodes are eligible as guests.
