For once, no AAA (Automatic Audra Adulation); fresh air breathes. But no Benjamin Walker.
Hmmm, Groff, Diggs & Jackson will have to fight it out for Featured.
And unexpected love for BRIGHT STAR. Interesting.

I have yet to review the list, but lots of wonderful surprises! + lots of wonderful things that were unsure possibilities

Wow, Audra gets a Bernadette snub.
No hudson.
They seemed to spread the wealth around, which is hard in a season with HAMILTON.

Was it fifteen noms for Hamilton? They went so fast I couldn't keep up!
Edit: WOW! Congrats to them for breaking the record!

Wow, I thought there would be a tie in Lead Actress to allow for Cusack and McDonald. Part of me thought McDonald was weak but then Brantley raved about her and I let that sway me. I should have stuck to my original prediction! A very solid roster this year, though I do wish Nicholas Barasch and Jennifer Hudson would have been recognized.

Very surprised to see Audra left out, but good for Adrienne Warren! She's terrific in the show- her first number starts the show off beautifully.
Ultimately, not a lot of surprises, though I didn't expect to see Bright Star get so much attention. Also, did anyone predict Laurie Metcalf would be nominated for Misery? Of all the nominations this year, that one seems the most out of left field, and unfortunately it means that Nicola Walker isn't remember for her stunning performance in A View from the Bridge.
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Agree about Metcalf.
Overall I think they are very fair this year.

I'm a little peeved that Benjamin Walker and Helene Yorke got snubbed.
However, with the former's category, I'm happy Zachary Levi snuck in. With the latter's category, I'm surprised Adrienne Warren snuck in only one of two acting nods with such a marquee cast. She must really be something
