Mare of Easttown, The Queen’s Gambit, Ted Lasso in contention for Emmy nominations

The Crown and Ted Lasso, among the TV shows that helped distract America during an oppressive pandemic year, are in the hunt for Emmy recognition. The nominations for the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards will be announced on Tuesday.

For Netflix, The Crown may represent its best bet. Contenders in the miniseries category include The Queen’s Gambit, with breakout star Anya Taylor-Joy as a troubled chess prodigy, and The Underground Railroad.
