A staggering 754 TV shows were eligible for Emmys this year (too many of which premiered this spring, shortly before the qualification deadline). Its hard to even remember what exactly came out in the past year no wonder there are shows that didnt make it onto enough Emmys voters screens to get a nod.

For every buzzy show, there are plenty more that got lost amid the avalanche of television at any given moment. We broke down what surprised us from Tuesday mornings Emmy nominations, and what we wish the Television Academy hadnt overlooked.

SURPRISE: Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult, The Great

Huzzah! It seems Emmys voters are finally recognizing the hilariously unhinged leading performances of The Great. Elle Fanning (Catherine) and Nicholas Hoult (Peter) scored their first Emmy nominations for outstanding lead actress and actor in a comedy series for their performances in the Hulu show, which is very loosely based on Catherine the Greats rise to power. The two actors play a royal couple constantly sparring for control over Mother Russia. The fun romp of a series contains oodles of witty banter, glass breaking, a guest appearance by Gillian Anderson, and yes, plenty of horse jokes.

Fanning and Hoult shine in their respective performances as a couple who despise and love one another in equal parts. Fanning is charming as the ambitiously naive Catherine. But Hoult steals every scene with his portrayal of Peter III a lazy, misogynistic and hedonistic jerk who was Emperor of Russia for six months before Catherine outsmarted him. And although the Emmy nod for Hoult is very well-deserved, were still bitter the underrated actor only got a Teen Choice Award for Choice Movie Breakout Star for his role in 2013s Warm Bodies. Make up for it, Emmys! Elyse Wanshel

SNUB: Selena Gomez, Only Murders in the Building

While her co-stars Martin Short and Steve Martin scored nominations for Hulus true-crime parody series , the Emmys regrettably overlooked Gomez, who shines as the younger member of a mismatched trio of amateur sleuths recording a podcast about a murder in their New York City apartment building. Her deadpan delivery and comic annoyance at her older counterparts are among the most reliably amusing parts of the show.

Gomez, who rose to fame as a singer and Disney Channel star and has since shown a wide range of talents, would have been just the third Latina woman to ever land a nomination in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy category, following in the footsteps of Rita Moreno and America Ferrera, according to Variety . The second season of Only Murders in the Building just premiered, so Emmys voters will have a chance next year to rectify this snub. (Gomez was nominated as one of the producers of the show , making her only the second Latina ever to be nominated for a producing Emmy for a comedy series.) Marina Fang
