Who do you think the closest runners-up were in the past decade at the Emmys? The people or shows that JUST missed the win?

For example, I’d be willing to bet that the second season of The Crown was very close to a Drama Series win in 2018.

I’m guessing Steve Carell was very close to winning for his last season on The Office. Honestly, the fact that he lost still doesn’t make much sense. He had the perfect performance and narrative.

It doesn’t make sense at all that Carrell doesn’t have an Emmy. Perhaps this year will change that.

Lisa Kudrow for The Comeback- as epic as Julia’s 6 season sweep was, if it was ever to be broken before last year, Kudrow should have been the one to do it. It’s a disgrace that the Globes/SAGs/TCA’s ignored this performance.

Sarah Paulson for Asylum and Freak Show. Winning for Marcia should have been her 3rd trophy.

I highly doubt The Crown was this close to sweeping everything in 2017, certainly not series.
