The 2021 Emmy nominations are a tribute to the lifelines that kept us entertained during the COVID-19 quarantine.
We're talking the steamy heat of "Bridgerton," the scary drama of "Lovecraft Country," the chess moves and plot twists of "The Queen's Gambit" ... and much, much more.
When the nominations were announced Tuesday, both Netflix’s “The Crown” and the Disney+ series “The Mandalorian” grabbed 24 of them, the most for a single series.
Following closely behind was "WandaVision" — the Disney+ nostalgia-TV mashup/Marvel superhero saga — with 23.
Although 2020 wasn't the best year ever for TV, there's a good argument to be made that it was the most important one in the history of the medium.
