"Westworld", "SNL" Lead Emmy Noms. See All Categories/Noms Here!

By Jessi Minneci

The 2017 Emmy nominations are out, and HBO's "Westworld" and NBC's "Staurday Night Live" are tied for the most nominations, at 22 each. 

A viewer favorite, HBO’s drama averaged 12 million viewers per episode during its pilot season across all its platforms — the most ever for a freshman series on the cabler. 

  • "Westworld" has already been renewed for a second season, though no premiere date has been announced.

NBC veteran “SNL,” fueled by the swirl of headlines from the election and the Trump Administration, surged with viewers this season. Star turns from Alec Baldwin as Donald Trump and Melissa McCarthy as Sean Spicer (both were nominated) definitely helped boost those numbers. 

This past season ranked as its most-watched in 23 years.

Stephen Colbert, host of CBS’ “Late Show,” will host the Emmy Awards live on Sunday, Sept. 17. The ceremony will air on CBS.
