In case you hadn't noticed by all the "for your consideration" advertisements on your Twitter feed and the local highway, it's Emmys season. It's television prom! Today, we find out who is nominated to be the kings and queens of primetime television and, most recently, content streaming platforms. This year's contenders are all fairly obvious — television, unlike movies, gives the press ample time to generate buzz and make predictions. HBO's Westworld is a favorite — and Game of Thrones is sadly out of the running — as well as Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale. There's also the repeat effect: Often, the same long-running shows get nominated for the same categories. ABC's Modern Family continues to be recognized, and for good reason; that just means the Emmys rundown is always a little more predictable than the Oscar noms.

This year, though, there are some major newcomers. In 2017, it's all about Westworld, This Is Us, and Stranger Things. (Here's how you can watch them!) And, of course, there are more than a few egregious snubs. (How could you ignore Queen Sugar?) Without further ado, here are the 2017 Emmy nominations.
