EMMY Nominations for Outstanding Choreography 2014

As always, SYTYCD choreographers get nominated for Outstanding Choreography at the EMMYs. There's not many other shows that get nominated for the same award (usually just SYTYCD and Dancing With the Stars), so it makes you wonder if this award will even stick around after the show ends.

They didn't cite specific routines for each choreographer nominated, so I included a few of the choreographer's best routines (in my humble opinion). Remember, these choreographers are all getting nominated for LAST SEASON's routines. i.e. Amy Yakima, Fik-Shun et al.

CHRISTOPHER SCOTT

Sand
Dancers: Carlos Garland, Nico Greetham, Fik-Shun Stegall, BluPrint, Aaron Turner, Paul Karmiryan, Curtis Holland, Alan Bersten, Tucker Knox, Jade Zuberi

Let's Get It On
Dancers: Fik-Shun Stegall and Amy Yakima

Also wanted to include "The Gravel Road", but for some reason blogger wouldn't let me upload it directly into the post, so you'll just have to do some extra work and click here . 

MANDY MOORE

I Can't Make You Love Me

Dancers: Jenna Johnson and All-Star Neil Haskell

Feeling Good

Dancers: Fik-Shun Stegall and Melanie Moore

The Edge of Glory

Dancers: Makenzie Dustman and Paul Karmiryan

Still my absolute favourite dance from last season. And I'm still just as in love with Paul.

NAPOLEON AND TABITHA D'UMO

After Party

Dancers: Amy Yakima and FikShun Stegall

Run the World (Girls)

Dancers: Jasmine Harper and All-Star Comfort Fedoké

TRAVIS WALL

Wicked Game

Dancers: Amy Yakima and Travis Wall

Honestly, Travis might take it all just for this piece alone. One of the most stunning routines ever produced on the stage, and it was such a treat to see Travis perform his own choreography. And I included the no audience noise version for you lovely people :)

Medicine

Dancers: Tucker Knox and All-Star Robert Roldan

Well, there we are. Kinda fun to look back on last season, isn't it? Not sure who will take it this year, as Travis and Mandy both had very strong seasons last year. It may sway to Travis, which I am 100% okay with because he deserves every bit of success he receives. Where's Stacey Tookey's nomination, though?

There were also nominations for Outstanding Makeup and Outstanding Reality-Competition Program. And, of course, for our wonderful host, Miss Cat Deeley. Here she is, looking gorgeous and wearing my favourite sparkly romper of hers;

The good news: seeing as Derek Hough for DWTS is the only other recipient for an Outstanding Choreography nomination, the odds seem to be in SYTYCD's favour to win an Emmy this year (although they didn't last year...). The bad news: Last week's episode clocked in the lowest all-time ratings in the series's history, with only 3.6 million people watching this past Wednesday. Yikes, guys.
