As long as the majority of a TV series' episodes air by the cutoff date of 5/31, then the entire season becomes Emmy eligible. So any of these episodes can be submitted/nominated for this year's Emmy Awards.

For being the least developed character in the entire series, Henry has somehow become the only character (other than Martha) that I hope gets a happy ending. I want him to become a hedge fund manager or something obscenely capitalistic when he grows up.

I could see Elizabeth being like Tuan 15-20 years ago. In the previous 4 seasons, she's said and done some pretty ruthless and unconscionable things. It's only recently she's really started feeling bad about the body count she and Philip have amassed.

I think Nicole Kidman actually has a first grader in real life. Her and Keith Urban's second daughter was born in 2010.

I'm cheering so hard for Moonlight to replace Birth of a Nation in the Oscar line up. It would be so deliciously ironic for Nate Parker to lose to a movie about a gay black man when he went on record in 2014 saying he'd never play a gay character to "preserve the black man." So gross.

I couldn't agree more. This was as good as Forest Whitaker has been since he won an Oscar. And while Malachi Kirby was outstanding as Kunta Kinte, Rege-Jean Page was the biggest standout of the series, absolutely electric as Chicken George. If there's any justice, this should be a star making performance for Page.

The interesting thing is that the Emmys combine Movies with Limited Series for acting, writing and directing categories. Cranston is a shoe in to be nominated, but I hope the voters are smart enough to pick Courtney B. Vance's incredible work on People vs OJ Simpson.
