According to Variety, original Apple TV+ film "Here We Are: Notes for Living on Planet Earth" won its nomination for "Outstanding Special Class Daytime Animated Program." For her work on the film, animator Anne Moth also received an award for "Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation."

Meanwhile, Apple Original "Stillwater" won an Emmy for "Outstanding Editing for a Preschool Animated Program," and had nominations in several other categories. "Helpsters" was also named in multiple categories but was ultimately unable to bag an award.

Daytime Emmy ceremonies were aired on Saturday and Sunday, and streamed via the web and the Emmy app, where they remain available to watch. The winners of the 73rd Annual Primetime Emmy Award winners will be announced on September 19, 2021, when Apple TV+ comedy "Ted Lasso" will hope to bring home more awards after receiving nominations in several categories including "Best Comedy."

Keep going Apple. Hope that you can add more shows. The quality of the videos are awesome!!!
 
Awards from within an industry are as useless as J.D. Power awards. How many times has a movie you never heard of won an Academy award? Probably a lot of times. Why, because the industry gives awards to itself. That is why so many Academy Award movies hardly had much in sales--no one went to see them. Besides, do preschoolers actually care about Emmy awards? I seriously doubt it. If Apple wants to impress us with their offerings, then they need to release true numbers of viewer for these shows.

Case in point: Shakespeare in Love vs Saving Private Ryan.
When was the last time anyone watched Shakespeare in Love?
 
I am 33 years old and like animated movies. Is Stillwater suitable to watch for grown ups as well? :) Or am I too old for it?
