Indian Matchmaking has been nominated for the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards. Let. That. Sink. In!
The show has got a nod in the Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program category and TBH, we have mixed feelings about it. Was the show good? Debatable. Was it relatable? To a great extent, yes. Did we watch it anyway? Yep, defs did.
Well, this year, the award show has startled a lot of people worldwide with its snubs and surprises. While we were ecstatic to see certain series that we were rooting for on the list, a few were major bummers. But, to decide on which is which, is a topic reserved for some other day. RN, we have some terrific (and cringe) shows that you can watch (and re-watch) because you never know, they might win an Emmy later!
