I agree it is one of the best shows this season. It deserves nominations in all major categories. Groff, McCallany and Torv are absolutely outstanding. Torv is my #2 this year (Vanessa Kirby is #1). Groff is #4 (Gleeson, Schreiber, Sutherland and Treadaway are ahead of him). And Britton deserves a fucking win in guest category. It kills me Stranger Thins and GoT are gonna be showered with nominations while this show probably gets nada. Oh, and Anna Torv and Carrie Coon are the same person.

Agree with all of this. Especially Britton, he should be a lock.

Britton would be the most deserving winner in a long time.

Big fan of Better Call Saul, Sex Education, Barry, BoJack Horseman, and, especially, Survivor

I just took Britton out of my predictions, it seems too good to come true.

Lois Smith was also a well established actress while Britton is a relative unknown.

I maintain that Mindhunter is a possible series nominee and Netflix started campaigning him last year.  Netflix is even trotting him out with the three leads for the show’s academy FYC event next week.  He reminds me more of Laurie Metcalf than Lois Smith.  The love for this performance on a debut season is so overwhelming that it compensates for any other shortcoming, be it not being famous (Britton) or not being on a show that the academy cares about (Horace and Pete).

Torv need a Nora Durst type of character, she deserve a big and loud role to show everyone how amazing she is.

She led Fringe for a hundred episodes.

Also worth noting for the chances of this show as a whole is that Mindhunter, Godless and Ozark are the only shows that Netflix is doing two FYSEE events for this season. They believe in it.

I know this and Fringe is one of my favorite shows ever.

Took them long enough, but I can rest easy again with Mindhunter in my seventh series slot because Emmy voters received the complete season on DVD this week and perhaps more importantly, it is the most innovative screener design of the season.  In fact, it is the only screener that Emmy voters have received that is not just a standard square or a rectangle with DVDs inside, which actually says a lot more about how lazy everyone else has been.  If you do not think that an interesting box makes a difference, then I need to remind you that Beasts of No Nation got a SAG ensemble nomination for three people because its screener packaging had technology from the future. Looks like the only cast members that they are submitting are Jonathan Groff, Holt McCallany, Anna Torv, Hannah Gross and Cameron Britton. The finale is their only writing submission and they are not submitting their ASC-nominated pilot for cinematography. They are submitting all four directors. McCallany is no longer a dark horse for a nomination because they are submitting him in lead. Browse the envelope:
