There are a ton of TV performances that have gotten well-deserved recognition over the years.

But has one of your favorite actors actually gotten zero credit for their incredible TV performance and you think they should have?

Susan Kelechi Watson's work in William's final episode is next-level amazing.

Maybe you're like me and you think it's absolutely criminal that Justina Machado didn't get more recognition for this Penelope speech in Season 2 of One Day at a Time.

Perhaps your favorite TV show is Stranger Things and you think Noah Schnapp deserved more credit for his performance when Will was controlled by the Mind Flayer.

Maybe you think Hugh Dancy and Mads Mikkelsen's work in the Hannibal Season 2 finale was some of the finest acting you've ever seen and you think more people should talk about it.

NBC

Heck, perhaps you just think it's absolutely wild that Ellen Pompeo has never even been nominated for an Emmy Award even though Grey's Anatomy would be nothing without her.
