A lot of big names are aiming their guns squarely at one of Emmy’s biggest prizes, Best Limited Series, as the race gets underway in earnest with the final contender, Ava DuVernay’s four-part Netflix series When They See Us, premiering tomorrow — just under the eligibility wire. She already has a lot of competition, including George Clooney’s Catch-22, Ben Stiller’s Escape at Dannemora, Hugh Grant in A Very English Scandal, Amy Adams in Sharp Objects, Mahershala Ali taking over the third season of True Detective, and FX’s dazzling Fosse/Verdon to name just a few.
Deadline TV Critic Dominic Patten and Awards Columnist Pete Hammond survey the field and make some predictions in this week’s edition of TV Talk podcast, which also will focus on the less competitive Best Television Movie race as we wonder just what constitutes a “TV Movie” these days anyway. We are also featuring Dominic’s hilarious interview with Ramy Youssef of the new series, Ramy, as well as my fun chat with James Corden at this year’s Deadline Emmy Contenders event. Check it all out below.

I was wondering. If the show is up for directing, would all three directors be honored or would they break it down by episode the way they do for regular series tv shows?

I would think in the case of ‘Catch-22’ where different directors were responsible for different episodes that a particular episode and it’s director would be singled out Lizzy.

I think they'll be singled out.

Well, the prediction here is that Catch-22 will pick up several noms (cinematography surely, but also directing, costume, and production design), but When They See Us is walking away with the major wins.

I could barely get through it. It's that visceral.

I just finished watching ‘When They See Us’ yesterday. I agree Way2. It cuts to the bone. I had to turn away a couple of times. Incredible storytelling and direction by Ava DuVernay. Both this series and ‘Catch-22’ should get multiple nominations.
