The Emmy nominations were announced earlier today and there was plenty of recognition for female-centric series like “Big Little Lies,” “The Handmaid’s Tale,” and “Feud: Bette and Joan.” Each of the shows racked up over a dozen nods — including recognition for their stars. Woman-led projects like “The Crown,” “Full Frontal Frontal With Samantha Bee,” and “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” were also honored.

But not as much love was shown for series primarily about women of color. Shows like “Insecure,” “Chewing Gum,” and “Jane the Virgin” were completely shut out, and only a handful of women of color received acting nominations, including “Black-ish’s” Tracee Ellis Ross (Lead Actress, Comedy), “How To Get Away With Murder’s” Viola Davis (Lead Actress, Drama), “SNL’s” Leslie Jones (Supporting Actress, Comedy), and “American Crime’s” Regina King (Supporting Actress, Limited Series/Movie). Actually, women of color fared best in the Outstanding Supporting Actress In A Drama Series category. “Handmaid’s Tale’s” Samira Wiley, “Orange Is the New Black’s” Uzo Aduba, and “Westworld’s” Thandie Newton accounted for half of the nods.

This year the Academy did spotlight more female directors. Jamie Babbit received a nomination for her direction on “Silicon Valley,” and the Drama Series and Nonfiction Program each nominated three women: Reed Morano (“The Handmaid’s Tale”), Kate Dennis (“The Handmaid’s Tale”), and Lesli Linka Glatter (“Homeland”) for Drama, and Alexis Bloom (“Bright Lights: Starring Carrie Fisher And Debbie Reynolds”), Ava DuVernay (“13th”), and Elizabeth White (“Planet Earth II”) for Nonfiction.

Morano also got a nod for her work as Director of Photography on the HBO comedy “Divorce.” The only other female cinematographer to receive a nom was “13th’s” Kira Kelly. She shares the nomination with Hans Charles.

Women writers were especially snubbed this year. Only two women were nominated for the major writing categories, and both are credited as co-writers: “Master of None’s” Lena Waithe (Comedy, with Aziz Ansari) and “Westworld’s” Lisa Joy (Drama, with Jonathan Nolan).

As per usual, the other categories were hit or miss for women. While we’re disappointed that “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” earned zero series, acting, directing or writing credits, we’re happy to report that it wasn’t completely ignored. Creator Rachel Bloom was nominated for Outstanding Original Music And Lyrics for the Season 2 song “We Tapped That Ass.” Bloom, Jack Dolgen, and Adam Schlesinger are credited with writing the lyrics and Schlesinger composed.
