Emmys 2017 Nominations: 15 Major Shocks & Snubs
11. Snub: Noah Schnapp (Best Actor In A Drama Series – Stranger Things)
Noah Schnapp's omission is without a doubt one of this year's most disappointing. The young actor delivered not only one of the strongest TV performances of this past year, but one of TV's best teenage performances in history.
Schnapp has always been pretty remarkable, but we weren't able to appreciate this in the first season as Will Byers didn't have an awful lot to do - what with him being missing and all. The second season, however, gave Schnapp the opportunity to highlight his incredible ability as an actor.
As disheartening as Winona Ryder's snub is, Schnapp's is even more so, because he really proved himself this season, and was without a doubt the MVP of Season 2. It's upsetting that he wasn't rewarded for what was no doubt an incredibly draining performance.
