BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / 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!

Aw, Zachary tweeted about Benedict winning...sob.

Oh, I am so glad! I already gave up hope!

OMG

OMG

OMG!

I saw the win for Benedict coming after the win at the creative Emmy, but for Martin! I am soooo happy right now!

For the Germans in here - Spiegel online does mention "Sherlock":

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.

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.

**Posted by SolarSystem** August 26, 2014 7:25 am

As long as he's not big in Germany, he can't be all that big.

**Posted by SusiGo** August 26, 2014 7:25 am

Yes, of course. I forgot that we are the centre of the world.

**Posted by SolarSystem** August 26, 2014 7:30 am

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!

And the biggest winner is ...

**Posted by SolarSystem** August 26, 2014 7:36 am

Oh god yes!

**Posted by Harriet** August 26, 2014 7:42 am

I'm so delighted about the news! About time, wasn't it?

**Posted by SusiGo** August 26, 2014 7:43 am

Yes, indeed. Most of all for Benedict. The first "serious" award for Sherlock!

**Posted by gently69** August 26, 2014 7:46 am

And where was Benedict???
Martin had a good excuse ...

EDIT:
And I just love Mark ...

He's crying, the old drama queen.

**Posted by gently69** August 26, 2014 7:51 am

I love him for that.

**Posted by SolarSystem** August 26, 2014 7:55 am

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

**Posted by gently69** August 26, 2014 7:55 am
