The Emmy Awards spotlight some of the most talented actors in the entertainment industry. From dramas to comedies, this award show is the time for the best of the best to get recognized. However, all too often our favorite stars leave empty handed—that's showbiz, baby! Check out this list of the greatest TV actors who were snubbed by the Emmy Awards.

▲We met her in 'The Princess Bride' and fell in love with her in 'House of Cards;' there is no denying Robin Wright is an incredible actress. Yet she doesn't have an Emmy to prove it!

▲British star Hugh Laurie should have won an Emmy purely for his American accent on 'House,' let alone the brilliant nature of his role.

▲Arguably one of the best moms on television, Lauren Graham is known for playing Lorelai Gilmore in 'Gilmore Girls' and Sarah Braverman in 'Parenthood.' Her quick wit and relatable personality are surely Emmy-worthy?

▲George Clooney's home may be filled with Oscars and Golden Globes...but he is also famous for being snubbed by the Emmy's! The actor was nominated twice for his role as Dr. Doug Ross on 'ER' but lost both times.

▲Famed actress Courtney Cox surely has a grudge over her Emmy Award history. The star had to watch her 'Friends' costars take home statues while she was left empty handed. She was also snubbed for her show 'Cougar Town.'

▲Do you find it hard to believe that 'New Girl' Zooey Deschanel never got an Emmy? Her quirky charm and hilarious banter won the hearts of audiences internationally, but not the Academy.

▲Actor Michael C. Hall played the most lovable serial killer on television. His work on 'Dexter' earned him a few nominations, but he never went home with the trophy.

▲The late Bernie Mac had a huge influence on comedy television. He was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for his role on 'The Bernie Mac Show,' but did not win.

▲Mindy Kaling has evolved into one of the most talented actresses in Hollywood. She stole our hearts in 'The Office,' but really won everyone over in her breakout series 'The Mindy Project.'

▲Chris Pratt was a standout star in the hit series 'Parks and Recreation,' though was never truly recognized for it. Perhaps that is why he switched over to movies?

▲Connie Britton is easily one of the most prolific actresses on television. From her roles on 'Nashville,' 'Friday Night Lights,' and 'American Horror Story,' she is undoubtedly deserving of Emmy recognition.

▲Michael Scott may be the world's best boss, but Steve Carell has never won an Emmy! Who else thinks 'The Office' star was snubbed?

▲Kristen Wiig is the queen of comedy! The 'Saturday Night Live' star has branded the show in infinite ways, and is easily an award-winner among audiences.

▲Nick Offerman, who played Ron Swanson on 'Parks and Recreation,' was the unsung hero of the series. Give the man an Emmy already!

▲'Stranger Things' star Millie Bobby Brown has plenty of time to win an Emmy, but fans think the young star was surely snubbed at the 2018 award show.

▲Actress Katey Sagal has had a long and successful television career. From 'Married with Children' and 'Sons of Anarchy,' to 'Futurama,' the star has displayed incredible depth in each role.

▲Rob Lowe is an incredibly dynamic actor. From drama in 'The West Wing' to comedy in 'Parks and Recreation,' many believe the star should have won an Emmy.

▲Though she was added to the 'House' cast in the later seasons, Olivia Wilde stole the hearts of viewers everywhere, and secured her place on the Emmy's snubbed list.

▲Did you know that Sir Patrick Stewart has done a lot of voice work on the hit animated series 'Family Guy' and 'American Dad?' He may have a knighthood, but he doesn't have an Emmy Award yet.

▲Many believe that David Duchovny was snubbed when he didn't win an Emmy for his role in the 'X-Files' series. But for fans of his later work in 'Californication,' him not being nominated at all was an even greater insult!

▲The series may be called 'Grey's Anatomy,' but Chandra Wilson as Miranda Bailey is the real heart of the show.

▲Actress Christina Hendricks is not only gorgeous, but incredibly talented. She won over audiences for her role in 'Mad Men,' but not the Emmy Awards committee.

▲Audiences are utterly charmed by actor Hugh Dancy. From his regal performance in 'Elizabeth I' to his chilling role in 'Hannibal,' many believe the star deserves an Emmy Award.

▲

Kim Cattrall made the world fall in lust with her role as Samantha Jones in 'Sex and the City.' However, she failed to seduce the Emmy Awards committee.
