Fallout, X-Men ’97, What We Do in the Shadows Get Emmy Noms

Estimated read time 2 min read


Genre content doesn’t always do well at the Emmys but this year, it’s getting some love. Fallout, What We Do in the Shadows, and X-Men ’97 each got a nomination for the best show in the drama, comedy, and animation categories this year.

Fallout has the steepest competition in the drama category, up against another genre show in Netflix’s 3 Body Problem, plus The Crown, The Gilded Age, The Morning Show, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Slow Horses, and Shōgun. In comedy, What We Do in the Shadows will face off against Abbott Elementary, The Bear, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Hacks, Only Murders in the Building, Palm Royale, and Reservation Dogs. Over in animation, X-Men ’97 is nominated alongside Blue Eye Samurai, Bob’s Burgers, Scavengers Reign, and The Simpsons.

Walton Goggins also got a lead actor nomination for his work in Fallout, which is exciting though winning will be tough against Idris Elba in Hijack, Donald Glover in Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Gary Oldman in Slow Horses, Hiroyuki Sanada in Shōgun, and Dominic West in The Crown. Matt Berry also got a lead acting nomination for What We Do in the Shadows but his competition is also stiff; he’s up against Larry David for Curb Your Enthusiasm, Steve Martin and Martin Short for Only Murders in the Building, Jeremy Allen White for The Bear, and D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai for Reservation Dogs.
