‘The Last of Us' Season 2 Just Scored a Bunch of Emmy Nominations
HBO's post-apocalyptic drama earned 16 Emmy nominations on Tuesday morning. While that's fewer than the first season's 24 noms, it still represents a terrific haul.

Perhaps the most interesting nomination is that Pedro Pascal was nominated for best actor. While Pascal's performance was widely praised, his character Joel had very limited screen time, appearing in only three of the season's seven episodes. The nomination is similar to Brian Cox's nomination for the final season of HBO's Succession, where his character was killed off in the season's third episode.
Star Bella Ramsey was nominated for best actress for their portrayal of Ellie for the second season in a row. Plus, the show was also nominated for best drama.
Several other actors scored Emmy guest actor noms: Joe Pantoliano as Eugene, Jeffrey Wright as Isaac, Kaitlyn Dever as Abby and Catherine O'Hara as Gail.
The other Emmy nominations for The Last of Us include best production design, casting, picture editing, contemporary makeup, prosthetic makeup, music supervision, nonfiction short (for a making-of documentary), sound editing, sound mixing and special visual effects.
Some snubs include Isabela Merced's performance as Gina, the writing categories and the directing categories (particularly Mark Mylod, who helmed the season's second episode, 'Through the Valley,' which was the episode submitted for four of the received nominations).
Here's a list of nominations in key categories for the 77th annual Emmy Awards.

NYT Strands today (game #507) - the answers The answers to today's Strands, game #507, are… QUESO SALSA GUACAMOLE HUMMUS FONDUE TZATZIKI SPANGRAM: PARTY DIPS My rating: Easy My score: Perfect The first word I saw on today's grid was SAUCE and bearing in mind the theme, I was certain that it would be correct. Then I remembered the UK-US chip difference – in brief, Fries = Chips, Chips = Crisps, Ketchup = Sauce – and deduced we were looking for things you could dip chips (or crisps) in. There is plenty of controversy in Strands' selections though, regardless of your nationality. HUMMUS is not something you'd dip chips in surely or FONDUE – which is famously served with cubes of bread. Anyway, this was a fun search for interesting words. I don't think I would have found the brilliantly spelled TZATZIKI without the help of it being my final word.
