Amazon, Apple, P&G and Sandy Hook Promise have all been nominated for an Emmy just in the past two years. P&G’s “The Talk” won the coveted award two years ago. Amazon’s “Alexa Loses Her Voice” was nominated the same year, and Sandy Hook Promise’s “Point of View” was nominated last year. Apple’s iPhone spots were nominated in both 2018 and 2019; its spot “Misunderstood” won the Emmy in 2014.

It’s been a bit longer for Jeep parent Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. The company was last nominated in 2011 and 2012 for the Chrysler spots “Born of Fire” and “It’s Halftime in America.” The “Born of Fire” spot won the Emmy in 2011.

Nike’s “Dream Crazy” spot won the Emmy last year.
