Emmys In Memoriam Snubs Shock TV Fans
15 Sep
Summary
- Several notable TV figures were omitted from the 2026 Emmys In Memoriam segment.
- Fans and colleagues expressed outrage over the exclusion of stars like Chuck Norris.
- The tribute honored many but left out performers with extensive television careers.

The 2026 Emmys' In Memoriam segment has drawn criticism for significant omissions, leaving viewers and industry professionals dismayed. Notably absent were television icons such as Chuck Norris, known for his extensive role in "Walker, Texas Ranger," and Daveigh Chase, recognized for her childhood work and voice acting. Nicholas Brendon, a star of "Buffy The Vampire Slayer," was also left out.
Fans and representatives have voiced strong disapproval, calling the exclusions a "snub." The Television Academy's In Memoriam segment is intended to honor those who died within the eligibility period, making these oversights particularly striking. While the tribute did acknowledge many prominent figures, the deliberate exclusion of other well-known personalities has become a major talking point.
