Tatiana Maslany deserves an Emmy nomination. No, you know what, she deserves dozens for all of the characters she plays on Orphan Black. Unfortunately the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences didn’t agree as the actress was snubbed for the second consecutive year.
Sure, Maslany wasn’t the only actress to get snubbed this year (ahem, Keri Russell) but the Orphan Black actress’ snub is causing the most outrage on Twitter. Tatiana has a devoted, and young, following and they are making their disappointment heard on Twitter.
I don’t want to live in a world where Michelle Dockery’s facial tics get an Emmy nomination and Tatiana Maslany’s six different faces don’t.

Tatiana Maslany is quickly turning into the Leonardo DiCaprio of the Emmys. — Emmy Snubs (@Mariesnd97) July 10, 2014
Hey #EmmyNoms your autocorrect seems to have changed Tatiana Maslany’s name to something else. Look into that. I’ll wait.

Maslany hasn’t commented on the snub yet but the official Twitter account of Orphan Black has. The people behind the show are probably a little disappointed about the snub but at least they can laugh about it.

In addition to getting snubbed for the best actress award, Tatiana Maslany was also ignored in the ensemble category. Now that’s just ridiculous.
Emmy nominations tomorrow. And the award for Outstanding Lead Actress Playing An Ensemble Cast goes to… #EmmyForMaslany #OrphanBlack

If you don’t know why people are so upset about Tatiana Maslany’s snub you should really check out Orphan Black. She really does do an incredible on the show.
