Emmy nominations live stream: Watch online

It’s time to find out which of your favorite television shows will be competing for an Emmy and we’ve got the details you need to watch Emmy nominations online.
Ahead of the 69th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards this September, it’s time to find out which of your favorite shows that aired between June 1, 2016 and May 31, 2017 will get the awards recognition it deserves. Of course, you may note that Game of Thrones made itself ineligible by holding off its premiere until July. But that also leaves the lane wide open for other shows.
It’s not like HBO doesn’t have strong representation with other standout hits like Big Little Lies or comedy favorite Veep. But when Tatiana Maslany brought home her much-deserved award for Best Actress last year, it gave the audience hope that smaller shows could earn some attention as well. Still, the competition is stiff. As much as I want Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life to earn a nom and compete as a limited series … um, Big Little Lies was, uh — how do you say? — oh, yeah, amazing.
And if Big Little Lies was amazing … if Feud: Bette and Joan doesn’t win, we know the game is rigged. Like, television is no joke. There’s silver screen-level talent and budget on the small screen now.
I mean, Television Academy Chairman and CEO Hayma Washington said it best upon announcing that Anna Chlumsky and Shemar Moore would present the nominees:
"“It has been an extraordinary year for television. The industry has never been more dynamic or inventive, and storytellers and content creators have never been more prolific.”"
“Dynamic,” “inventive” and “prolific” are the three best words to describe a television landscape that makes paying $12 to see Transformers 5 in theaters seem like a joke.
