Your complete guide to the 2016 Emmy nominees.

We love ourselves a good awards show, and there’s nothing quite like the celebration of binge-watching TV that is the Emmy Awards.

This morning, the nominations for the 2016 ceremony were revealed, and while there were some much deserved nods (we’re looking at you, Game of Thrones, with your 23 nominations), there were some glaring omissions.

Like, Orange Is The New Black, which received a nomination for Outstanding Casting For A Drama Series but nothing for, oh I don’t know, THE REST OF ITS AWESOMENESS.

It seems your "complete list of Emmy nominations" is lacking. The official list is a 74-page pdf of nominations. So there's nothing "complete" about this "complete guide to the 2016 Emmy nominees". :-/
