Can Netflix shows be nominated for Emmys? If so, why? They don't air on television, so how can they be considered television shows? Where is the line drawn between what constitutes a web series and what constitutes a television show if not the fact that it does or does not air on television. What separates Netflix from something like Youtube Red?
This is especially confusing when you consider that the Emmy Awards are split into separate categories for daytime and primetime series. How the fuck can nominate something like Stranger Things or House of Cards for a primetime Emmy when it doesn't even have a time slot?

>What separates Netflix from something like Youtube Red? Netflix is for adults and YouTube Red is for children.
Jacob Gomez
you're a very mature man
Kevin Russell
Why didn't the just call it Redtube? Much shorter and more palatable title to be sure.
Elijah Parker
What'a confusing is that while Netflix's TV is eligible for Emmy nomination, it's movies can't get nominated for Oscars. Which is probably why Beasts of No Nation didn't get nominated last year
Thomas Wood
That sounds 100% backwards. There's no hard and fast definition for what makes something a movie. Any film can be considered a feature provided it's over an hour long and captured on some sort of camera. Television SEEMS to have a pretty fucking clear cut definition, but Netflix seems to fly in the face of that but for fuck all reason we're pretending that it doesn't. Fucking outrageous.

To win an Oscar it has to open in a certain number of theaters in California or something.
Jace Robinson
I hope not, just like they can't get nominated for Oscar. Netflix is not TV nor Cinena
Jack Torres
That's dumb. Fuck California.
Blake Lopez
They can. House of Cards, Orange is the New Black and Arrested Development have all been nominated.

Ian Walker
netflix needs to be banned in the US for enforcing autism
Liam Walker
>What separates Netflix from something like Youtube Red? Brilliant performers such as Finn Wolfhard.
Adam Rivera
As broadcast televison becomes a thing of the past the emmys will either need to evolve or die what is going to happen in 10-20 years when the last television network dies or goes on demand?

With Netflix, you can watch Japanese shows while with Youtube, you are fucked.
Chase Martinez
It can get nominated for Oscars, there is no rule saying it's not elligible. But Hollywood hates Netflix because cinemas are losing money because of it so they are bias against anything they make.
Dominic Martinez
I like rats and coffee and weed and saying whatever the fuck I want to the beat (And I like Yachts and money and speed and drivin' like a poes down the motherfuckin' street

House of Cards has won before at LOL at actually thinking Stranger Things is worthy of any kind of award, that's capeshit level entertainment.
Timeslot goes in Primetime because the daytime stuff is for Soap Operas and shit.
Carter Hernandez
Why rats?
Benjamin Taylor
Because ratz rule
David Taylor
Have a TV movie ever been nominated for an Oscar? Is it possible?
Daniel Green
If Emilia fucking Clarke can be unironically nominated for an Emmy, Stranger Things can (and 1000% will) be nominated for an Emmy.
Jayden Sanders
That's not how it works though Awards are a joke
Lucas Ross
Misses "i wont bleach my eyesbrows dye my hair or wear purple contacts for the largest role of my life" is niminated for an emmy?
Camden Martin
Indeed she is. Indeed she is.
Chase Ortiz
>They don't air on television
lol dude, what is a "television"?
Jack Richardson
Here's a little lesson for ya OP. The Emmys need to sell ad space, to remain on televison and make money. People tune into award shows to watch there favorite shows win. EVERYONE watches netflix. So if they don't include netflix shows no one will tune in.
The only legit argument you made was the time slot thing, and honestly I think they'll just ignore that. They just use the day time night time Emmys to filter out soap operas.
Kayden Rodriguez
Youtube original movies are allowed to be nominated also, just like Amazon, Hulu and any other streaming site.
Nathan Kelly
True auteurs who make true Kïñôgràfía do not care for the philistines of the new continent regardless.
Elijah Moore
Beasts of No Nation was given a limited theatrical release in order to make it eligible. The Academy just didn't want to nominate it.
Bentley Cruz
No need for the salt, famiglia. I could give is shit whether or not they're nominated. My question is what are the actual requirements to be considered a television program.
