AwardsWatch - 2018 Emmys: OFFICIAL Episode Submissions for the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards

The official episode submissions for the 2018 Primetime Emmy Awards for series and performances are trickling in and you can find them here, updated as they’re announced.

Submissions for all Guest categories were already known from the original nominating ballot and in Limited Series/TV Movie all lead nominees ‘submit’ the entire series or movie. Nominees in supporting that come from a television movie do the same.

Emmy voting ends August 27th at 10pm PST. The Creative Arts Emmys (which will unveil the Guest winners) will be a two-night affair on Saturday, September 8th at 5:00pm and Sunday, September 9th at 4:00pm PST.

The 70th Primetime Emmy Awards will be Monday, September 17th.

Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
