How did the Emmy awards sneak up on me like this? Did you all realize they were this coming Sunday? It’s been very interesting that this year, despite the really exciting nominees, this year’s Emmys don’t seem that exciting. That doesn’t mean that I won’t do a final round of Emmy predictions, so never fear! Anyways, I have faith in about 2 of these picks so take them with a grain of salt.
