Emmy Awards 2016: Full List of Nominations

Here we go! Nominations for the 68th Emmy Awards were just revealed by TV stars Anthony Anderson (who was verrrrry excited for his own nomination, and the nomination of his friends) and Lauren Graham. The major primetime nominees were just announced, anyway; there are actually a lot more (like for supporting actors, costume design, choreography, directing, etc.) and you can head here on the official Emmys site for the complete rundown.

(For example, no idea why they didn't announce it on air, but Kit Harington just got his first Emmy nomination as Jon Snow. It's like the presenters knew nothing!)

The 2016 Emmys will be handed out live Sunday, September 18 on ABC, with Jimmy Kimmel returning as host.
