From the moment Julia Roberts<\/a><\/strong> was attached to star in and executive produce Homecoming<\/em>, an Emmy was predicted for her future. Until it wasn’t.<\/p>\n

Roberts played Heidi Bergman in the series from Mr. Robot<\/em> creator Sam Esmail<\/strong> and was forecasted by just about every Emmys expert to get a nomination alongside the likes of Sandra Oh<\/a><\/strong> and Laura Linney<\/a><\/strong>. But when D’Arcy Carden<\/strong> and Ken Jeong<\/a><\/strong> announced the 2019 Emmy nominees, Roberts was nowhere to be seen on the list. Alongside Linney and Oh, Robin Wright<\/a><\/strong>, Emilia Clarke<\/a><\/strong>, Jodie Comer<\/strong>, Viola Davis<\/a><\/strong> and Mandy Moore<\/a><\/strong> received Emmy nominations.<\/p>\n

No Roberts. And no Homecoming<\/em> in the main drama series category, no nomination for costars Stephan James<\/strong>, Bobby Cannavale<\/a><\/strong>, Shea Whigham<\/strong> or Sissy Spacek<\/strong>. Roberts posted about her snub on Instagram in a post that would probably be better than any acceptance speech she could give.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“Well, I’m in exceptional company at least,” Roberts said alongside an image of her phone with a push notification saying she was snubbed along with George Clooney<\/a><\/strong> and Emma Stone<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Homecoming<\/em> will return for a second season with Roberts just on board as an executive producer.<\/p>\n

SURPRISE:<\/strong> PEN15<\/strong><\/em>
Hulu’s acclaimed comedy created by and starring Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle picked up a Comedy Writing nomination and it’s SO deserved.<\/p>\n

SURPRISE: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend<\/em><\/strong>
The CW’s acclaimed musical comedy picked up a nomination for original song for “Antidepressants Are So Not a Big Deal.” It’s not an acting or overall nomination for star and co-creator Rachel Bloom, but we’ll take it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"Bodyguard\"<\/div>\n

Netflix<\/p>\n

SNUB<\/h3>\n
\n

SNUB: Richard Madden, Bodyguard<\/em><\/strong>
After a Golden Globes win and endless buzz, this seemed like Richard Madden’s big year. The show itself picked up a nomination, but not the lead actor.<\/p>\n

SNUB: Kristen Bell, The Good Place<\/em><\/strong>
The Good Place<\/em> is one of the best shows on TV, anchored by Ted Danson<\/strong> AND Kristen Bell. The entire supporting cast of The Good Place<\/em> was also snubbed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

SURPRISE<\/h3>\n
\n

SURPRISE: Fleabag<\/em>‘s dominance<\/strong>
We knew creator and star Phoebe Waller-Bridge<\/strong> would come through in the acting category, but did not expect Olivia Colman<\/strong>, Sian Clifford<\/strong>, Fiona Shaw<\/strong>, Kristine Scott Thomas<\/strong> and the show itself would cut through the competition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\"Game<\/div>\n

HBO<\/p>\n

SURPRISE<\/h3>\n
\n

SURPRISE: Gwendoline Christie, Game of Thrones<\/em><\/strong>
The Supporting Actress in a Drama Series category is stacked with Game of Thrones<\/em> talent. We expected Lena Headey, Maisie Williams and Sophie Turner, but did not think Gwendoline Christie would come through. Ser Brienne forever!<\/p>\n

SURPRISE: Alfie Allen, Game of Thrones<\/em><\/strong>
Guess Theon’s redemption arc was a hit for the voters of the TV Academy!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

SNUB: Christine Baranski, The Good Fight<\/em><\/strong>
With no The Crown<\/em> and no The Handmaid’s Tale<\/em>, it seemed like this would finally be Christine Baranski’s deserved year. Alas\u2026<\/p>\n

SNUB: Pamela Adlon, Better Things<\/em><\/strong>
As writer, actor and director of the acclaimed Better Things<\/em>, Pamela Adlon seemed like a shoe-in.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

ABC<\/p>\n

SURPRISE<\/h3>\n
\n

SURPRISE: Viola Davis, How to Get Away With Murder<\/em><\/strong>
It’s no surprise that Viola Davis<\/strong> is great, but How to Get Away With Murder<\/em> lost a considerable amount of buzz and audience in its fifth season.<\/p>\n

SURPRISE: Robin Wright, House of Cards<\/em><\/strong>
After the Kevin Spacey<\/strong> scandal, it seemed like Hollywood turned its back on House of Cards<\/em>. But the Academy came in with a dramatic twist.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

NBC<\/p>\n

SNUB<\/h3>\n
\n

SNUB: Susan Kelechi Watson, This Is Us<\/em><\/strong>
As Beth, Susan Kelechi Watson is the emotional backbone on the family drama. She acted her butt off in the third season.<\/p>\n

SNUB: Issa Rae, Insecure<\/em><\/strong>
This was one of the funniest seasons of Insecure<\/em>…and no nomination for its co-creator and star.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

SURPRISE<\/h3>\n
\n

SURPRISE: Eugene Levy, Catherine O’Hara, Schitt’s Creek<\/em><\/strong>
As Moira Rose, Catherine O’Hara has spent five seasons stealing every single scene with just the pronunciation of a word. Schitt’s Creek<\/em> has been an under the radar show for years, this is well deserved.<\/p>\n

It’s great to see O’Hara, the show itself and Eugene Levy nominated. Next year: Annie Murphy<\/strong> and Dan Levy<\/strong>, please!<\/p>\n

SURPRISE: Mandy Moore, This Is Us<\/em><\/strong>
Mandy Moore is continually the most underrated player on This Is Us, knocking emotional hits out of the park on a weekly basis, she just hasn’t been nominated before!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
