In this special discussion episode, Jack is joined by Backstage’s social media specialist Katie Minard and senior staff writer Casey Mink to chat the 2020 Emmy Award nominations: gut reactions ranging from gratifying to frustrating, Emmy trends both typical and unusual, and what the Sept. 20 ceremony might have in store for us. Will the Television Academy vote for new streamers Disney+ and Apple TV+, and how much might Netflix win? Are there categories that deserve another look, or new ones to introduce? And what about the pandemic? This lively, insightful conversation from three TV-watching experts (you can follow them on Twitter @JackSmartWrites, @KatieMinard, and @Casey_Mink) will help you brush up on all things Emmy.
