Apple Earns Record 72 Emmy Award Nominations for 'Lessons in Chemistry,' 'Slow Horses,' 'The Morning Show,' and More

Does 'record' mean the most noms apple has received in a single year?

Yes.

Netflix got the most nominations this year with 107, FX got second with 93, and HBO third with 91.

Sugar was a surprise. Very good.

It was excellent but that twist? That twist was so weird and also unnecessary, you could have removed the twist entirely and changed 2-3 lines in the script and nothing would have changed.

The Morning Show got the most nominations while it is universally hated by the viewers (32% Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes - three times lower than the rating of Cobra Kai). Apple gets the awards, Netflix and Amazon get the viewers.

There are some good shows on Apple TV+. Wonder how many awards Apple will win

And like all the other streaming services that once served high quality content (e.g. Netflix, Amazon), the stock-market driven prerogative for user growth will inevitably lead to the ******tification of the service and its content. It’s already showing with the sci-fi-overload and sports, and will extend to other genres as well… I‘ll see everyone who thinks otherwise in 5-10 years for a reevaluation 😉

Slow horses is outstanding

A lot of Apple TV shows suffer from too many episodes that are as stingy on development as Apple is doling out RAM. Slow horses is a brief 6 episodes and it moves. Smartly written and great performance from Oldman and rest of cast. Maybe their best show (I think it's a BBC or at any rate British production).

i feel like the real headline is there was a record number of nominations handed out to shows that almost no one has seen
