2019 Emmy Nominating Ballots

Who’s in? Who wasn’t submitted? Here is the official list of all 2019 Emmy submissions for Programs, Performers, Music, Makeup and more.

Today begins the two-week nominating period for the 2019 Primetime Emmy Awards and the Television Academy has released the full, official nominating ballot lists. If you’re not on here, you’re not getting nominated.

While networks do the lion’s share of submitting their talent for their shows, some individuals and their reps pick up the slack and submit themselves. Gwendoline Christie from Game of Thrones, for example, was not submitted by HBO but is on the ballot, presumably by her own hand. Emma Stone, who received some of the best reviews of the season for her hosting of Saturday Night Live (the gay porn sketch alone could have netted her a win), is not submitted. SNL has a total of 33 submitted performers for the season. Last year, the show earned 10 acting nominations with Tiffany Haddish winning the Guest Actress in a Comedy Series Emmy.

High profile shows like Barry, Veep, Game of Thrones, Fleabag and Killing Eve all submitted just one episode each in the Writing category in an effort to decrease any potential vote-splitting whereas Better Call Saul has a whopping seven on the ballot. For directing, most of those shows expanded a bit with two or three submissions but Better Call Saul didn’t hold back – it has NINE episodes submitted. Last year’s comedy winner for writing and directing (and comedy series), The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, went for three in directing and two in writing.

Emmy nominations will be announced on July 16th and the final round of voting will begin on August 15th and run for two weeks until August 29th. The Creative Arts Emmys will again be split into two ceremonies which will take place on September 14th and 15th. The 71st Primetime Emmy Awards will be one week later, on September 22nd and air live on FOX.

Here are the nominating ballots? Which missing submission did you find the most shocking?

He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Hollywood Critics Association (HCA) and the International Press Academy. 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.
