Emmy submissions for 2018 are gradually being announced by Gold Derby, in the comedy, drama and limited series/TV movie genres. Performers are required to submit one episode for consideration to Emmy voters, and while such submissions matter less now that there are no more blue ribbon panels, they do still provide some value in giving voters a sample of a performer’s best work.
Here’s how you can stream this year’s Emmy submissions in the comedy categories. I have also included links for Comedy Series, directing and writing.
