Emmy Nominations: Oh, Mildred!
As usual, HBO showed itself the Emmy darling, garnering 21 nominations for “Mildred Pierce” (Kate Winslet should start clearing space on her mantle next to the Oscar) and many others for “Boardwalk Empire” and other series that simply ooze quality. “Friday Night Lights” and “Big Bang Theory” got noms after years of snubs.
