TAR Nominated For 2015 Reality-Competition Show Emmy
« on: July 16, 2015, 12:28:50 PM »
From Variety:

REALITY-COMPETITION SERIES NOMINEES

“The Amazing Race”
“Dancing With The Stars”
“Project Runway”
“So You Think You Can Dance”
“Top Chef”
“The Voice”


It looks like the usual suspects.

I did not see any list of nominees for Best Reality-Competition Show Host and it was supposed to be a complete list of nominees. Maybe they did away with that category?

The Amazing Race has been nominated for three Emmy Awards this year.  This is their lowest count since their one series nomination in 2003, the first year of  the Reality-Competition Program category. TAR was first eligible in 2002 when it received zero nominations.

The show is nominated in:
OUTSTANDING REALITY-COMPETITION PROGRAM
OUTSTANDING PICTURE EDITING FOR A REALITY PROGRAM
OUTSTANDING CINEMATOGRAPHY FOR A REALITY PROGRAM

Last year, The Amazing Race was nominated in 6 categories. The show had been nominated for Outstanding Sound Mixing every year of eligibility except 2002 and 2003 and Sound Editing every year since 2004. The show was also shut out of the Outstanding Directing category after being nominated 6 out of the last 7 years.

Poor Phil, I think he did good job hosting for TAR25. (More scene time and more interact with teams) Although not too much in 26 since he tried too much to emphasize the romantic prospect. But that's production's fault, not Phil.  :(

But I think they'll have high chance for best reality show this year. The episode they submitted is pretty strong.  :hoot:

Phil was actually pretty flat this year to no fault of him, it was the fault of the editors for undermining the Pit Stops and clue narrations. Good luck TAR though! :D

It's funny though because I think part of the reason they included those live updates by Phil was to up his exposure on the show and maybe get him back into the host category.

TAR is 0-3 at this year's Emmys!  They lost to The Voice for a 2nd time.

I'd rather they lost last year for TAR23 than this year for TAR25.  TAR25 deserves an Emmy much more than TAR23 or TAR20.

This is so sad. :(

I mean I don't hate The Voice, but this season of The Voice sucks to be honest. I don't get why it manage to get Emmys over TAR, which is absolutely AMAZING this cycle. (Esp, the season and the episode they sent.)
