Who's Gonna Win Big at the 2017 Emmys?







The 69th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards will be held tomorrow night. In case you haven't been watching, the quality of television (reality shows aside) programming has skyrocketed in recent years. Not all of the best that tv has to offer will be represented but some damned good creative-types may be honored for their productions. What are your picks for the year's best? Mine (for a few of the categories) are in red.

  1. Well the only few I can comment on are Stranger Things, which is excellent, although The Handmaid's Tale is good also but just so disturbing to me. The other show I have watched and thought was great was The Night Of, which had great performances by all involved.
