See the 2013 Emmy Nominees Here!

It has begun. Awards season officially kicked off Thursday, when Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul and How I Met Your Mother's Neil Patrick Harris took the stage to announce the 2013 Emmy nominees. (House of Cards' Kate Mara had been scheduled to join Paul, but did not attend the ceremony thanks to flight troubles.)

Though this year's race saw some familiar fare, with Emmy favorites Homeland and Modern Family picking up several nominations and American Horror Story: Asylum snagging a whopping 17 nods, the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has made history this year by nominating Netflix's House of Cards, the first online series to score a nod in a major category. (The Kevin Spacey-starrer was nominated for nine awards, including drama, lead actor, lead actress, and directing categories.)

But, come Sept. 22, will the Emmys make history by giving House of Cards an award? Or will it stick to mainstays like the highly criticized Season 2 of Homeland? We'll find out in two months time, but, for the meantime, let's celebrate the fact that Veep is getting its due with nominations for Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Tony Hale, and Anna Chlumsky. (That's our girl!)
