‘Better Call Saul’ with 0 wins and more

“Better Call Saul” was one of the finest TV shows of the last decade — but just don’t try telling that to the TV Academy.

The “Breaking Bad” prequel drama, headlined by Bob Odenkirk and Rhea Seehorn, ended its six-season run with a whopping 53 Emmy nominations — but zero wins, as it was shut out, once again, at Monday night’s 75th Emmy Awards.

That’s a new all-time record for futility, people, and was one of the biggest snubs on television’s biggest night, part-and-parcel of the dominance of “Succession,” “Beef” and “The Bear.”

“Better Call Saul” star Bob Odenkirk was nominated six times for Best Lead Actor in a Drama for playing slimy lawyer Jimmy McGill — aka Saul Goodman — but failed to ever take home a statuette.

It’s a double-dose of bad news for Odenkirk, whose followup AMC series, “Lucky Hank,” was canned after one season.

Seehorn, meanwhile, who played Jimmy’s love interest-turned-wife, Kim Wexler, was nominated twice for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama, and skunked both times.

Even the show’s colorful supporting cast, including Giancarlo Esposito as buttoned-up fried chicken/drug kingpin Gus Fring — carried over from “Breaking Bad” — failed to nab a statuette.

“Breaking Bad,” by comparison, won 16 Emmys during its five-season run.

Even before the Emmys, Seehorn told The Hollywood Reporter that, whatever happened, “we all truly feel proud of the work we created and [co-creator/finale writer-director Peter Gould, even if I wasn’t on this show, nailed the final season and the finale and that’s a really hard thing to do.”

Seehorn was correct: the “Better Call Saul” finale, which tied up many loose ends over three different timelines, was a solid finish to the series — even if the TV Academy voters disagreed.

“Better Call Saul” wasn’t the only show ignored at Monday night’s Emmy Awards.

“Ted Lasso,” once the academy’s darling with 21 nominations, left empty-handed as stars Jason Sudeikis and Hannah Waddingham, both previous winners, were yesterday’s news — likely a voter hangover from a sketchy Season 3 of the feelgood Apple TV+ comedy that’s seen better days.

“Ted Lasso” co-stars Brett Goldstein and Phil Dunster were also shut out.

“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” starring Rachel Brosnhan, was also on the short end of the snub-stick, despite snaring 14 Emmy nominations for its final season. Chalk that one up to voter indifference for a series that once won Best Comedy but peaked several years ago. Its nominations were more of a knee-jerk reaction by lazy academy voters who couldn’t be bothered.

Other notable snubs: “Andor,” “The Last of Us” — which won two Creative Arts Emmys but couldn’t do the same for Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey — and the buzzy “Yellowjackets,” with Melanie Lynskey, which was steamrolled by “Succession” star Sarah Snook.

And let’s not forget about “Barry,” which was nominated 11 times but failed to capture a statuette for Bill Hader, Henry Winkler or Anthony Carrigan — and “Wednesday,” which copped 12 nominations and won four awards … but only at the Creative Arts Emmys.

Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building,” currently airing in reruns on ABC, did not impress TV Academy voters; it received 11 nominations but no support Monday night during The Big Show.
