I'm assuming the jeopardy in The Mist is a bit more than it being a bit damp and making it hard to see.

Great season opener for Preacher. Season 1 set everything up and now they're just going full speed ahead.
The second episode is also out but I haven't had chance to watch it yet.

Tour de Pharmacy, Mockumentary on Saturday 8th July.

In 1982, during a dark and fictitious time in cycling history, the sport’s most venerable, time-honored race was marred by the doping of virtually all of its competitors. Riddled with nefarious characters, that year’s competition was a hornet’s nest of moral depravity. Through the perspective of five riders, Tour de Pharmacy gives an inside look into the grim realities of the darkest event in a sport notoriously tainted by controversy.

Salvation S01E01, Wednesdays in the US.

Salvation is a suspense thriller that centers on a staggering discovery: an enormous asteroid is just six months away from colliding with Earth. Without alerting the public, MIT grad student Liam Cole and tech billionaire Darius Tanz team up to save humanity from this impending apocalypse. Keeping it secret will complicate life for Liam and those closest to him. Meanwhile, the government has its own approach. Grace Barrows is both the Pentagon Press Secretary and a single mom, and she deftly navigates the complicated waters of both jobs. Deputy Secretary of Defense Harris Edwards has been tasked with running their own top-secret plan to deflect the asteroid. Meanwhile, Darius recruits an aspiring sci-fi writer, Jillian, to work on a theoretical approach to saving humanity—a project that might prove to be all too real.

I'm enjoying it not sure about the pacing of the mist arriving thought they would built more tension but it's much better than Fear The Walking Dead IMO.

Wishful thinking, she got nominated for Fargo. Nobody watched The Leftovers.

Could it be a time frame thing maybe. There hasn't been a season of GOT between last years Emmys and this years has there as GOT was on earlier in the year last year?

The seventh season of "Game of Thrones" will not premiere until July 16, which means HBO's fantasy series has missed the eligibility period to be considered for this year's awards. (To qualify for the 2017 Emmys, a program had to air episodes between June 1, 2016, and May 31, 2017.)

And, no, the four Season 6 episodes that aired during the aforementioned dates don't count. The television academy has a "hanging episodes" rule. The Season 6 episodes were counted as being released in last year's eligibility period, so no matter how amazing "Battle of the Bastards" was, it cannot be nominated this time.
