Outstanding variety special, along with ALW and Tim Rice If he gets an emmy or not, this is the category he would be more deserving in....his performance was rather mediocre, in my estimation. There were several other performers in that show that outshone him by a country mile...in fact, most of them! Depressing .....

This had Emmy nom as the goal on John Legend's part from the conception. Get 2 noms and hopefully win one. I personally don't care for him, think he's less than sincere on many fronts and his music does nothing for me.... but he worked it big time for his benefit and it paid off. Darren Criss in Versace out acted him by that same country mile IMO. ETA: I see Benedick Cumberbatch is nominated for Patrick Melrose. I think he was outstanding and prob should win the category IMO

Sara and Brandon also got noms for their roles as well.

My fingers are crossed for Brandon. I thought he was outstanding. I wouldn't mind if Legend got one for Producer as that was a great cast that was pulled together and the stage sets and costuming were intriguing. If that has anything to do with the Producer pulling together the people that pull all that together, then great. I wasn't convinced at all by his performance. He should have stayed behind the scenes and placed a more compassionate person in that role. He was definitely the weak link. I do not think this very often but Brandon had all the pieces pulled together for that role. I don't think Adam could have topped it. Definitely in the singing part for sure (but it would have been a different range) - I just really liked Brandon for it. When Adam finds his perfect theater role, he'll give the world a stunning performance.

But he wants that Emmy really bad, so he will have the entire matched set of Emmy, Oscar, Tony and Grammy. It's are rare achievement. I haven't see the performances by Cumberbatch or Criss, although I think they're both good actors. We'll see. I really don't watch awards shows much anymore, except for the Oscars. I really hope Adam gets to try his hand at acting in something substantial. He needs the chance to show what he is capable of. New doors should be opened.
