Team ADTV’s 2019 Creative Arts Emmy Predictions (Night 1)

The 2019 Creative Arts Emmy Awards will be held this weekend in ceremonies spanning two nights. This year as before, Team ADTV has taken on the foolheartdy task of predicting the full suite of Emmy nominations, including both Creative Arts ceremonies. While Night 2 holds the categories that are more predictive of the main races, Night 1 is the far more challenging night to predict. Still, we’ve taken our best shot. Don’t judge! Night 2 predictions will be unveiled tomorrow.

The 2019 Creative Arts Emmy Awards won’t be telecast until Saturday, September 21, on FXX at 8 pm ET. You’ll have to follow us on Twitter (@AwardsDailyTV) or right here on the website for the latest winners.

Until then, Team ADTV consists of:

Jalal Haddad
Megan McLachlan
Joey Moser
Clarence Moye
David Phillips
Jazz Tangcay
