The drama wasn’t hurt with TV academy voters by controversy over its depiction of a female character’s rape, earning five more nominations than it did last year. It’s a contender again for best drama series, an award that has eluded it.
Next up in the nominations tally was "American Horror Story: Freak Show" (FX) with 19 nominations, followed by "Olive Kitteridge" (HBO) with 13, "Bessie" (HBO) with a dozen, "House of Cards" (Netflix), "Mad Men" (AMC) and "Transparent" (Amazon) with 11 apiece, and "American Crime" (ABC) and "Boardwalk Empire" (HBO) with 10 each.
The TV academy took a step toward recognizing the increasingly diverse talent on TV, giving best actress nods to black stars Taraji P. Henson for “Empire” (Fox) and Viola Davis for “How to Get Away with Murder” (ABC).
That’s sets up a possibility of a history-making win: An African-American actress has never won the top drama acting award.
"I gotta win! I gotta win for history!" an exuberant Henson said when asked about the prospect during an "Empire" panel in May.
However, two-time nominee Kerry Washington of "Scandal" (ABC) was left out this year.
Also snubbed: hit hop-family drama "Empire," which was left out of the best drama series category, and series star Terrence Howard, who failed to get a best drama actor bid.
Instead, voters gave nods to favorites such as "Mad Men" star Jon Hamm, Kevin Spacey of "House of Cards" and newcomer Bob Odenkirk for "Better Call Saul" (AMC), the prequel to the now-concluded "Breaking Bad."
Gina Rodriguez, the standout Latina star of "Jane the Virgin" (The CW) failed to get a comedy acting nod — despite having won a Golden Globe award for her performance.
Programs getting a last chance for Emmy glory include best drama series nominee "Mad Men," a four-time winner in the category that would be the most-honored drama ever with a fifth trophy. For star Hamm's portrayal of Don Draper, it's a final shot after seven previous nominations.
David Letterman, who retired from "Late Show" (CBS) and Stephen Colbert, who left "The Colbert Report" (Comedy Central) to succeed Letterman this fall, both received variety talk show nominations for their former shows.
"Late Show" was last nominated in 2009 as best variety, music or comedy series and last won in 2002. Colbert's show won in 2014.
They're both getting a break: the TV academy split the variety series category into two, one for variety talk shows and one for variety or sketch series like "Saturday Night Live" (NBC), making space for more contenders in each. Here's a full rundown of nominations:
