Streaming services have come a long way over the past few years. Not only have companies like Amazon and especially Netflix become massive threats to the cable industry, they’re starting to pull in tons of awards for their original content. Amazon has received 12 nominations for this year’s Primetime Emmy Awards, with Netflix receiving a whopping 34.
The nominations for the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards were announced in Los Angeles Thursday, and streaming services — or at least two of them — made their presence known. Netflix had a big day, continuing its upward trajectory by topping last year’s record of 31 nominations with three more, while Amazon went from zero to hero with its first nominations ever, totalling 12 in all. Netflix’s jump from 31 to 34 wasn’t quite as sharp as last year’s (when the streamer doubled its nods), but 34 is more than respectable. House of Cards led the way with 11 nominations, continuing its impressive trend (or should we say habit by now?) of being nominated for Outstanding Drama Series, Lead Actor, and Lead Actress. Since its debut in 2013, it’s the only show to have had a constant presence in each of those three categories. Orange Is the New Black and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt both had strong showings as well, earning four and seven nominations, respectively.
