At the 74th Primetime Emmy awards celebration last night, the Korean drama Squid Game won six awards.  Very impressive for a show, actors, and crew who are non-English speaking!

Star Trek: Voyager episode "Dark Frontier" wins Primetime Emmy 1999


Star Trek: Voyager episode Dark Frontier won a Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Visual Special Effects, at the 51st ceremony, September 12, 1999.  Episodes Thirty Days and Timeless were also nominated, so Voyager was pretty well on track to win the award.

I suppose since it was nominated for Visual Effects, it was disqualified for any acting awards?  Or are sci-fi series overlooked on purpose?
