REAX: Animated Emmy 2015 nominations (and who we think should win)
We have a few things wrong with this year’s Emmy noms. For starters, there’s no sign of Adult Swim in ‘Outstanding Animated Program’ which is utter horse shit (Over the Garden Wall, are you nuts?) and online networks haven’t cracked the list either. Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon all have shit in the live-action categories, but when it comes to cartoons they aren’t cutting the gravy. I actually think Crackle could change that with SuperMansion given that the show is produced by Stoopid Buddy Stoodios aka the same studios that produce Robot Chicken which has been nominated for Emmys nine years in a row.
I actually think Robot Chicken sweeps both categories they were nominated in, and I’ve got Archer winning this year, too. We’re gonna have our list of biggest snubs rather soon, so don’t go too far. But, here’s a warning, a lot of it’s Adult Swim/FXX programming. Here is a full list of the animated nominees for this year’s Emmys:

"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
