I closed Gold Derby predicts 'Antiques Roadshow' will win Outstanding Structured Reality Program at the Emmys by telling my readers, "Stay tuned to see if I continue tomorrow with the reality competition category." I decided that was too big a bite to chew today — RuPaul's Drag Race alone has nine Emmy nominations — so I decided to blog about the next best thing, game shows. Here are their nominations at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards.
Outstanding Game ShowCelebrity Family Feud, Jeopardy!, and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire co-lead with two nominations, while The Price Is Right and Wheel of Fortune have only this one. Jeopardy! is the defending winner, so it's my default choice to win. The Gold Derby oddsmakers agree, as every expert and editor plus 97.6% of users think it will repeat. The rest of the users split between Celebrity Family Feud with 1.5% and Wheel of Fortune with 1.0%. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire and The Price Is Right have no votes. That's overwhelming!
- Celebrity Family Feud (ABC)
- Jeopardy! (ABC / Syndicated)
- The Price Is Right (CBS)
- Wheel of Fortune (ABC)
- Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (ABC)
Outstanding Host for a Game ShowOn the other hand, Gold Derby does not think Jimmy Kimmel will repeat. Instead, every expert, 83.3% of editors, and 89.7% of users expect Martin Short will win. The editors and users split on the runner up. The remaining 16.7% of editors plus 3.3% of users think Ken Jennings will finally walk off the podium with an Emmy, while 4.7% of users pick Jimmy Kimmel to repeat. Steve Harvey, who regularly won this award when it was part of the Daytime Emmy Award, has user support of 1.4%. Electorates matter. Colin Jost sits last with 0.9% of users.
- Steve Harvey – Celebrity Family Feud (ABC)
- Ken Jennings – Jeopardy! (ABC / Syndicated)
- Colin Jost – Pop Culture Jeopardy! (Netflix)
- Jimmy Kimmel – Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (ABC)
- Martin Short – Match Game (ABC)
That's a wrap for today. I plan on continuing awards show coverage tomorrow, but not the Emmys. Instead, the Critics Choice Super Awards winners will be announced later today, so I'm going to shift focus to those this weekend. Stay tuned.
