deadline.comIt’s been a banner Emmy nomination day for Imagine Entertainment, the company notching 14 noms across a variety of categories including Outstanding Scripted Variety Series and Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special. “I think it’s a real testament to the diversity of our teams,” Imagine Entertainment President Justin Wilkes told Deadline. “When you look at just the breadth of the nominations — which range from A Black Lady Sketch Show, to Emily in Paris, to our great feature doc on Judy Blume, the Letterman-Zelenskyy interview — it really just shows off the full range of what Imagine’s doing as a company.

Emily in Paris, the Netflix series, also scored three noms – for makeup, hairstyling, and costumes. Among other nominations, Imagine also scored for Fire Island (Outstanding Television Movie); The Other Two (Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series); The Ms.
Pat Show (Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series), Bono & The Edge: A Sort Of Homecoming With Dave Letterman (Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Variety Series or Special), and My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman And Volodymyr Zelenskyy (an episode of the Netflix series where Letterman interviewed the president of Ukraine).
