But there’s no recognition for the show’s female lead, Ella Purnell.
The nominations for the 2024 Emmys have been announced and shows found onstreaming serviceshave a great chance of sweeping the board, but while the record-breakingFalloutappears in 16 categories, there’s one major ommission.
Amazon PrimeVideo’s biggest sci-fi series of the last 12 months (and ever) owes much to the superb Walton Goggins as The Ghoul, and he’s rightly been nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series. However, its success is also down to the incredible, literally wide-eyed performance of Ella Purnell as Lucy… she’s undoubtedly the star.
And for some unfathomable reason, the Television Academy seems to have ignored her.
She’s neither in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series category nor even recognised as the best supporting actress (which she isn’t anyway, as the lead in the show, but you don’t know what was in their thinking process).

To be fair, she’s in good company. Jonathan Nolan has also been shunned in the Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series nominations, which equally comes as a shock considering his three episodes – the first three – arejaw-dropping in their scope and story telling. They set the very bedrock for the first season and others coming in the future.
After all,Falloutis nominated for Outstanding Drama Series.
Still, it could have a great night on Sunday 15 September regardless, with its 16 nominations which you can see below.
