  2. Loved these nominations except for What we do in the shadow is as funny as cardboard.
    Love the double nominations for Better Things and insecure
    Were here is so so good and nomination well deserve.

  3. The ladies are killing it. 10 out of 13 are women in the comedy and drama acting categories.

    And good to see Zoey’s Playlist acknowledged too.

    These nominations are all awesome. It’s like they came and asked me what I thought. Cos these noms are pretty damn close to what I would have said…
