Yearly, Emmy prognosticators weigh the possibilities of TV’s newcomers. However what about newcomers which can be additionally old-timers?

With regards to awards season, although, reboots aren’t such a sizzling commodity. Max’s “Gossip Girl,” Paramount+’s “Frasier” and ABC’s “The Wonder Years” got here and went with no wins, and continuations like NBC’s “Law & Order” and “Will & Grace,” Fox’s “The X-Files” and CBS’ “Murphy Brown” have typically not acquired the identical love from voters as their unique runs.

The fixer-upper sequence that includes 5 homosexual males zhuzhing up the lives of extra staid straights was a phenomenon when it initially aired between 2003 and 2007 however was comparatively ignored by the Emmys, choosing up a win for actuality program in 2004 plus three different nominations.

The movie scored no top-line awards or nominations, however the HBO reboot, which premiered in 2016, landed 54 Emmy nominations and 9 wins throughout its four-season run, together with a 2018 trophy for Thandiwe Newton (lead actress, drama) for her efficiency because the sequence’ crafty madam, Maeve Millay.

Within the a long time between the unique 1978-79 “Battlestar” and the full-throttle reboot, science-fiction storytelling on the small display screen superior at lightspeed, which can have helped the latter final far longer than the unique.

The reboot ended up with three Emmy wins of its personal from 19 nominations, although all of the wins had been for particular results and sound enhancing.

Let’s name this one an unplanned reboot.

Falling someplace between a standard revival and a full-on reboot, “The Conners” hasn’t matched the unique “Roseanne’s” Emmy haul, which included 25 nominations and 4 wins (three for Laurie Metcalf and one for Barr). However the sequence, which not too long ago concluded its personal seven-season run, has carried out solidly with voters, incomes six nominations and one win in 2021 for enhancing in a comedy sequence.
