'Stranger Things' Isn't Nominated for Any Emmys in 2019
Stranger Things Season 3 hit Netflix on Independence Day giving fans a long weekend to digest new episodes of the show.
From the introduction of beloved characters like Russian scientist Alexei, to the continuing drama involving Eleven and the gang, the third instalment of the visually stunning show captivated audiences around the globe. So why isn't Stranger Things nominated for any Emmys in 2019?
Fans will be relieved to discover that there's a very simple reason why Stranger Things isn't up for any Emmys this year. The 2019 Emmy nominations were announced on July 16, less than two weeks after Stranger Things 3 hit our screens.
The Emmys has a very specific eligibility period, and for the 2019 awards it ran from June 1, 2018 and May 31, 2019. As Stranger Things Season 3 came out after the eligibility period had ended, the show will instead be considered for the Emmys in 2020. You can check out the full Emmys calendar over on their website.
The popular Netflix series is already somewhat of a darling at the Emmys, having secured a whopping 30 nominations over the course of its first two seasons. Stranger Things has managed to take home six Emmys to date, and will hopefully add to that number in 2020.
Meanwhile, Game of Thrones has secured a record-breaking 32 Emmy nominations in 2019 for its final season, which aired earlier this year, and is pretty much guaranteed to make a huge impression at the awards ceremony.
