Damn sad that Legion, American Gods and Black Sails got seriously ignored.

Legion was good but not necessarily award worthy. With the exception of Ian McShane, the other 2 are crap.

Bull. Legion was excellent; visually insane and technically brilliant, well-directed, and very well-acted - Dan Stevens and Aubrey Plaza both deserved nominations for their work.

Black Sails is one of the most under-appreciated shows of the last decade - A prequel to the classic tale Treasure Island while also taking influence from the likes of Breaking Bad, The Wire, Deadwood, and Game of Thrones with a bit of actual history but still being able to stand on its own two feet. Toby Stephens has been robbed not once but four times now for a nomination for Best Actor - Drama as Flint.

American Gods is just out of this world, visually amazing with good script writing and terrific acting from everyone, not just Ian McShane but also Orlando Jones, Gillian Anderson, Cloris Leachman, Peter Stormare, Pablo Schrieber, Kristen Chenoweth...Nobody, not even Dane Cook, did bad or lackluster work at all.
