Often nominated, never won: these are the biggest losers in the series world

Winning an Emmy is the most prestigious award for a series. ‘Saturday Night Live’ has won the most Emmys to date with 84 wins, followed by ‘Game of Thrones’ (59 trophies) and ‘Fraiser’ (37 wins). This year, series such as ‘The Bear’, ‘Beef’ and ‘Succession’ won.

However, others like “Wednesday,” “The Last of Us” and “Ted Lasso” came away empty-handed. The same goes for ‘Better Call Saul’. The series has been nominated many times, but has never taken home an Emmy trophy.

Here are eleven series that have been nominated for an Emmy many times but never managed to win:

The spin-off ‘Breaking Bad’ has already been nominated for a total of 53 Emmys. They haven’t won once.

This music series ran for six seasons and was nominated for eight Emmys. Each time they came away empty-handed.

‘The Good Place’ was nominated for an Emmy twelve times, but never managed to take home an Emmy.

The Netflix series starring Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda never won the Emmys. They were nominated thirteen times.

With just two seasons, the Marvel series received six Emmy nominations. However, the series has yet to yield an Emmy win for the MCU.

Idris Elba won a Grammy for his performance in Luther, but the series came to the Emmys empty-handed. She was nominated thirteen times.

‘A Terribly Nice Family’ was nominated for an Emmy a total of seven times, but never won.

The comedy series received five Emmy nominations, but never reached the top spot.

The comedy series ran from 1982 to 1990 and, with 25 nominations, is still nowhere near ‘Better Call Saul’. But they also had to settle for no profit.

“Parks and Recreation” has also never won an Emmy, despite being nominated fourteen times.

This Netflix series has four seasons and 18 Emmy nominations. What she doesn’t have: an Emmy trophy.
