Why did NBC's Community (2009-15) receive Emmy nominations?

It should have racked up several especially for Writing and Directing and Supporting Acting nods IMO

Danny Pudi deserved nods for season 1-3.

It was more of a cult hit,then a critics hit.

That show was poorly written and incredibly stupid.

Re: Why did NBC's Community (2009-15) receive Emmy nominations?

The show was brilliant and cleverly written,(and a critical darling BTW) but it flew under the radar. NBC was notorious for starting then rescheduling the season. It was always questionable if it was going to actually be on or not - "this summer, no October, no half season...". And as an aside, they always put it on the other side of big bang theory! So no Emmy voters even had a chance to vote on it, because of its irregularity in scheduling.

There was a reason Yahoo bought the show to finish it out, and for once it was not the money. They thought the art deserved its due, and it did, and it was great!

Are you saying that the Emmy voters didn't vote for it just because of its scheduling?

Re: Why did NBC's Community (2009-15) receive Emmy nominations?

More like it did not get traction with the Emmy voters because NBC did not take the show seriously as evidenced by the scheduling. The networks/channels are responsible for putting up their shows for nomination, and I think providing the show for Emmy viewing as well. I apologize if I was unclear or mislead you by that comment.
