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.

Yay i was right for once. That's about of a shame about the last four episodes of season 6 as that means those episodes were never eligible in any year. Battle of the bastards deserves some recognition.

That's ridiculous that Battle of the Bastards could never be nominated. Utterly stupid.

It reminds me of Afrikaans, but in Jared Harris' case it's his bad English impersonation of Afrikaans.

I've recently started watching Deadwood. Really good so far, some strong characters and intriguing plotlines. Calamity Jane is pretty annoying though.

I found her really annoying at the start too, but she gets less so as it progresses.

Cool, whilst it was probably my least favourite of the Marvel Netflix shows so far I'd still happily watch more.

Midnight, Texas S01E01, Mondays in the US.

Welcome to a place where being normal is really quite strange. From Niels Arden Oplev, the visionary director of "Mr. Robot," and based on the hit book series from author Charlaine Harris ("True Blood"), comes a journey into a remote Texas town where no one is who they seem. From vampires and witches to psychics and hit men, Midnight is a mysterious safe haven for those who are different. As the town members fight off outside pressures from rowdy biker gangs, ever-suspicious cops and their own dangerous pasts, they band together and form a strong and unlikely family.

Somewhere Between S01E01, Mondays in the US.

Paula Patton stars as Laura Price, a local news producer in San Francisco helping the police to hunt down a serial killer. After the killer strikes close to home, a twist of fate allows a "Groundhog Day"-type reset, and Laura relives the week prior to the string of murders. Unlike "Groundhog Day," she only has one chance. Can she change fate and stop the killer?

Don't think we have a Rick and Morty thread

Netflix UK will be adding them pretty much as they air

Fantastic I can watch this...legally...

Watching Arrested Development again on Netflix and Meet the Veals is arguably the best episode.
