How do Emmy nominations work? How prestigious it it?

I don’t take Emmys seriously.

The only person ever nominated from Little House On The Prairie was Melissa Sue Anderson for Mary’s blind story (well deserved nomination, she was fantastic as always),

However Michael and Karen Grassle as well as Matthew Laborteaux and many others deserved nominations as well. Michael could make a person cry by a look without a word.

MSA said in her book that Michael told her she wouldn’t win because of something the Emmys did with one year someone from the West coast won and someone from the East the other year (something like that).

He was right, she didn’t win and it was as he said about the coasts.

(Melissa did win an Emmy in the future, for a different role).

Also The Walking Dead actors were never nominated and they were amazing.

So no, I don’t take Emmys as any proof of anything.

The Walking Dead wasn't a soap opera, was it? From what I know, only actors from B&B and the other 3 american soaps can participate and win these specific Awards. I have never watched Little House on the Prairie (too old for me I guess) so I don't know these actors. But it's instructive, thanks!

Little House on the Prairie was not a soap opera either. It was a drama series that was broadcast in the evening, once a week from 1974 to the early 80's with a few made for tv movies after the series ended.
