I can't believe they submitted 'Dreamy' for an Emmy consideration.

Just for art direction and makeup. Not for writing or acting or anything :)
Does anyone know when the official nominations come out?
I can't believe that they didn't submit anything for hair. Or is that part of makeup?

The voting just ended. On July 19 we'll know the nominees. On Sept. 23 we'll know the winners.

Hair and makeup are separate categories.

I was looking through my tumblr (Robert Carlyle) tag and saw this: Opinion: The 10 worst Emmy Awards nomination snubs of 2012

Sebastian Stan and Robert Carlyle didn't make it :(

3. Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series: Robert Carlyle, Once Upon a Time

The general snubbing of Once Upon a Time cannot be ignored. But looking at the very cable-dominated nomination lists for Outstanding Drama and Actor/Actress, maybe its family friendly tone just disqualified the show from those categories this year.

However, Robert Carlyle not receiving even a nomination is completely baffling. Not only does he tick all the boxes in terms of being “worthy” with his resume and reputation, but few Once fans would disagree with the fact that his performance on the show has been astounding.

Once Upon a Time picked up a few nominations for makeup, prosthetics and visual effects, and fans should appreciate that the show at least got a bit of recognition. But if any one person from this show could have expected a nomination for their standout performance, it was Carlyle. Did they not see “Skin Deep” or “The Return”?!

6. Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series: Sebastian Stan, Once Upon a Time

It’s hard to judge guest stars’ chances at being nominated for these things, because more often than not, it seems that nods are awarded based on stunt casting rather than actual importance to the plot of the show in question.

Sebastian Stan was not only hyped up before “Hat Trick” even aired, but there was no doubt that he delivered one of the most memorable performances on the show, which would put most other series’ guest stars to shame. Although Stan only appeared in two episodes of season 1, the Mad Hatter is already one of the most popular characters on the show, and fans have been crying for him to be added as a regular (which sadly other commitments prevent right now).

He is a relatively well known actor, but next to names like Michael J. Fox and Jason Ritter, Stan wouldn’t win on name alone. It would have been great to see his name on that list though, because with the passion and enthusiasm he brought to the relatively small role, he definitely deserved it.

I was a bit sad that Sebation Stan, Robert Caryle, nor Lana Parrilla were even nominated. Although I kinda figured that they wouldn't win or get even considered for the Emmy's. A lof of great actors have not gotten the nomination that they deserve.
