Call it a game of pros and cons.<\/p>\n

On the one hand, the 2014 Emmy nominations list, which was revealed Thursday, largely omits buzzworthy and critically acclaimed series like FX’s “The Americans” and FOX’s “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” from the key races<\/p>\n

On the other hand, it also recognized beloved shows like HBO’s “Game of Thrones” and Netflix’s “Orange is the New Black.”<\/p>\n

With 19 and 12 nominations, the two series, in fact, represent the year’s most-nominated drama and comedy programs, respectively. FX’s “Fargo” ranks as the most-nominated miniseries with 19 nods, while HBO’s “The Normal Heart” scored sixteen points of recognition to rank as the most-nominated made-for-TV-movie.<\/p>\n
