Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! It's a very busy week with tons of Emmy nomination news to go around, not all of which we could fit in here! Plus, we're hearing an update about the Mad About You reboot, some new DVDs for Beverly Hillbillies, and more. Let's get going!

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB

  • With HBO leading the nominations for Emmys, as well as streaming services such as Netflix in the game now too, some are left to wonder if broadcast dramas will ever get their Emmy recognition again. (Deadline)
  • The week just wouldn't be right without more Roseanne news, and this week, we learned that the series scored two Emmy nominations (although neither were for the star herself). (CNN)
  • The Mad About You reboot idea that was being thrown around a few weeks ago "probably won't happen" according to star Paul Reiser. (Vulture)
