Pete Hammond’s Notes On The Season: Voting Ending, ‘Hamilton’s’ Awards Conundrum, A Posthumous Emmy For Robert Forster?
The reminders from the Television Academy are now coming fast and furious. Online voting for the 72nd annualOn Thursday, the Academy set loose governors from various branches to guilt you into voting.
So for example, this year there are 28 entries in the Television Movie program category. In theory you could nominate all 28, or you could nominate one. It is a straight up-and-down vote, just as it will be when we vote for the final winners come August. It makes it pretty easy to play in this sandbox, as opposed to the Oscars, where voters are perpetually confused about how to select their choices for Best Picture since the Academy uses the antiquated ranking system just in that one category.
The rules probably place it in the relatively recent category of Outstanding Variety Special , at least as far as programs go: “Programs exclusively originated for or derived/adapted from a medium other than television or broadband , and entertainment components of sports programs are eligible as appropriate in variety special or variety special .” That states it clearly.
