Today we're shining a spotlight on some of the dramas that Amazon Prime, Hulu, Sundance and AMC have on offer this year for consideration.
Amazon have really spent big on their Emmy campaign for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, so be sure to check out all those billboards, but the streaming platform as has a 'Consider It' campaign for some of its other shows, like the limited series Picnic at Hanging Rock.
Based on Joan Lindsay's 1967 novel of the same name, the television adaptation stars Game of Thrones Natalie Dormer and is about three boarding schoolgirls and their governesses who mysteriously disappear on a Valentine's Day picnic in 1900.
These 'Captivating' Emmy billboards for the drama were snapped along Santa Monica Boulevard and Pico Boulevard from May 29 to June 1, 2018.
Prime also has another original comedy-drama based on a book, this time The Dangerous Book for Boys by Conn and Hal Iggulden.
The series follows Gabriel Bateman's 'Wyatt McKenna' and his brothers who are coming to terms with their dad's death (played by Chris Diamantopoulos), a quirky inventor who leaves them a guide to life which inspires fantasies where he reconnects with his father.
This series launch billboard was snapped along Olympic Boulevard on March 9, whilst the 'Consider It Imaginative' Emmy billboard was spied high above Melrose Avenue on May 26, 2018.
Meanwhile the streaming service Hulu was campaigning for Jeff Daniels and their mini-series about the FBI and CIA investigations into the 9/11 terrorists attacks, The Looming Tower.
These 'Recover the Truth' Emmy FYC billboards were photographed along the Sunset Strip and Santa Monica Boulevard from May 23 to May 29, 2018.
Jeff Daniels is also in the city skies for his part as the villain in Netflix's Western limited series, Godless.
Hulu's adaptation of Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale was also back for a sophomore season this year, charting all new territory beyond the original 1985 book about a dystopian future in a place called Gilead that rapes, tortures, mutilates and uses fertile women as baby-making machines.
In season two Elisabeth Moss 'Offred' tries to reclaim her identity as 'June' and so these 'Reclaim your Name' Emeighmy FYC billboards photographed above Beverly Boulevard and Pico Boulevard from May 23 to May 29, 2018, fit perfectly for show that won eight Emmys for its debut season.
Be sure to also check out all the Emmy consideration billboards for The Handmaid's Tale last year.
And speaking of Elisabeth Moss, she's also up for consideration this season for her part in Top of the Lake: China Girl.
A follow-up to 2013's Top of the Lake about Detective 'Robin Griffin' (played by Moss) investigating the disappearance of a pregnant 12-year-old in New Zealand, this second season installment was set in Sydney four years later as she investigates the washed up dead body of an unidentified Asian girl on Bondi Beach.
The season launch billboards were spied along the Sunset Strip from September 5 to September 8, 2017, whilst the Emmy consideration billboard also featuring co-stars Gwendoline Christie and Nicole Kidman was snapped along Olympic Boulevard on May 29, 2018.
This season AMC doesn't seem to have much of a presence in the city skies, with no Emmy billboards anymore for Mad Men, no fourth season yet for Better Call Saul and even giving up on trying to get any recognition for The Walking Dead after being snubbed for the zombie apocalypse show's writing and acting for many years.
Instead AMC is supporting its horror drama, The Terror, based on the 2007 novel by Dan Simmons about a lost expedition to the Arctic in 1845 to 1848, when two polar explorer ship crews become stuck in the ice and are stalked by an unknown menace.
The Terror series premiere billboards were photographed along the Sunset Strip from March 12 to March 24, 2018, whilst the 'Masterpiece' Emmy FYC billboard was spied along La Brea Avenue on May 23, 2018.
Be sure to check out AMC's previous Emmy consideration billboard campaigns, and stay tuned this week for even more of this season's Emmy FYC billboards for late-night talk shows, NBC, The CW, Comedy Central, IFC, TNT, Lifetime and more besides.
