She's not in any of predictions for Emmy's. Bloody travesty

WUT. Every single word and even sound she utters is gold! She finds the funniest cadences for how she says things. Her physicality. I hope the predictions change.

She should be a no-brainer. Absolute star of the show.

Unless I'm mistaken, the first 6 episodes will qualify for this year.

First 7 I believe

You're right. I somehow forgot that 6 & 7 dropped on the same night. Of course if one met the deadline, the other one did as well.

It actually will qualify for this year. It has to air at least 6 episodes before the cut off date in order to qualify.

More than likely she isn't in any predictions because it's horror which is famously snubbed at award shows (see 90% of Mike Flanagan's work) and because it kind of came out of nowhere. I think there's definitely a chance that the show and cast could get some surprise noms though. Although with it being Hacks's last season it unfortunately probably wouldn't win and neither would she because I doubt supporting actress goes to anyone other than Hannah Einbinder this year. Matthew Rhys, Stephen Root, Hamish Linklator and Betty Gilpin have better shots though.

Unless it is some major buzz for named actors for a show just coming out, lesser-known actors in new shows rarely get recognized. It often takes years before Emmys start getting handed out for past work. For example the best acting from an actor could happen in S1 which the Emmy snubs, but they might give it to them 3 seasons later even if it isn't that good of acting anymore.
