Re: Emmy nominations for HLV
I have no idea, maybe they are just not interested in the mini-series category. They talk about 'normal' series like "The Big Bang Theory" and "Breaking Bad". After reading their article, you wouldn't even know that there is a category for mini-series.
But still, "Sherlock" won in important categories, Martin Freeman is the Hobbit... I don't get why they don't mention it, at least in one sentence!

Re: Emmy nominations for HLV
For the Germans in here - Spiegel online does mention "Sherlock":

Re: Emmy nominations for HLV
It's interesting though, they mention Martin first. Usually you first mention the lead actor... but I guess that's because in Germany he's probably known as Martin "The Hobbit" Freeman.

Re: Emmy nominations for HLV
Which is strange because his part is not that big, at least not in part 2. It seems they still do not realise how big Benedict is.

Re: Emmy nominations for HLV
As long as he's not big in Germany, he can't be all that big.

Re: Emmy nominations for HLV
How could you...?
I mean, look at the coverage of the Ice Bucket Challenge, it's all over German television, but I did not once see Benedict's challenge - and come oooooon, it's clearly paramount!

Re: Emmy nominations for HLV
Yes, indeed. Most of all for Benedict. The first "serious" award for Sherlock!

He would have deserved to be up there with Steven so, so much.
