It is another strong year of Emmy nominations for “Saturday Night Live,” furthering its streak as the most nominated program in television history, now at the nearly unbeatable 270. This year, “SNL” received 18 Emmy nominations including cast member Kate McKinnon and six guest performers: Matt Damon, Robert De Niro, John Mulaney, Sandra Oh, Adam Sandler and Emma Thompson. The late-night series also received its perennial nominations for Best Variety Sketch Series, Variety Series Directing and Variety Series Writing.
McKinnon has now earned six consecutive Emmy nominations for her work on “SNL,” winning gold in 2016 and 2017. After two seasons of her fellow repertory players being embraced as well, she is now back to being the only representative from “SNL” in the supporting acting categories. However, Leslie Jones did receive an Original Music and Lyrics nomination as one of the co-writers of “The Upper East Side,” a song featured on the James McAvoy episode of “SNL.
