Beyonce 'The Formation World Tour' - New York City

It’s the most wonderful time of year for TV watchers: Emmy season is in full effect.

Your favorite shows have the opportunity to be acknowledged for their work and take home one of the highest accolades in television. The Television Academy announced the nominees for the 2016 Primetime Emmy Awards on Thursday morning, with black-ish star Anthony Anderson and Gilmore Girls actress Lauren Graham naming this year’s nominees from the Academy’s North Hollywood headquarters.

Spoiler alert for Bey-Hivers, Beyoncé scored four nods for her visual album Lemonade, including Outstanding Directing for a Variety Special category alongside Kahlil Joseph.
