LIVE POLL: Most Shocking 2026 Emmy Nomination Snub or Surprise

Which egregious Emmy nomination omission or unexpected Emmy nomination surprise is the biggest shock of 2026?

*Snubs & Surprises have been consolidated into a single answer option, limited to one answer slot per series, program, or movie. The goal is to ensure maximum representation during an ultra-competitive Emmy year, that resulted in both more snubs and surprises, than occur during a typical Emmy awards season.

The 78th Primetime Emmy Awards (2026) honors the best in American primetime television programming from June 1, 2025, until May 31, 2026. The awards ceremony will be hosted by Mariska Hargitay on Monday, September 14, 2026, at 5 PM PST / 8 PM EST from the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles, California, USA. The ceremony will air live coast-to-coast on the NBC broadcast network and stream worldwide on Peacock.

I think Dexter Sol Ansell should have been nominated for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.

The Supporting Actor in a Drama Series category only has 6 nominees, while Supporting Actress has 7. What's that about? Why couldn't they have added one more?

@Jessica, corrected, as others feel both were in the conversation for nominations in their acting category.

I added these two options,

while removing these two options to make room.

I am open to any other suggestions that might be more Emmy deserving or more agreed upon as SNUB or SURPRISE.
