They're suffering awards erosion, too. Forthefirst time ever, a cable channel — HBO — got more Emmy nominations than any of the major networks. Home Box Office got a whopping 90 nominations in the 49th annual Emmy nominations announced Thursday, edging NBC's 89. Symbolically, that small gap is vast, Af- ter a half-century of dominating the medium, the networksare losing groundin both audience andprestige. “It's a significant acknowledgment with- in the industry of the sea change that has been taking place among viewers within the last decade,” said Larry Gerbrandt, an analyst’ with the media research firm Paul Kagen Associates, “What viewers are increasingly finding is there is programming as fresh, as original, as well-produced on cable” as on the major networks, NBC's hard-charging medical South holds: drama “ER” did lead with 22 nominations and remains TV's most-watched show! But HBO's @ Touched by an Emmy? . The filmed-in-Utah TV series “Touched by an Angel’ received five Emmy nominations Thursday — thefirst nods for the three-yearold CBSseries. Roma Downey and Della Reese, who play angels aiding people in crisis, were nominated in the lead and supporting actress categories for dramas. Diane Ladd and Louis Gossett Jr. were nominated for their guest-starring roles. “Touched by an Angel” also was nominated for the President's Award, a category introduced last year to recognize social value. The other nominees were the NBC series “ER,” “A&E Biography,” and two TV-movies that aired on HBO, “Miss Evers’ Boys” and “If These Walls Could Talk.” “Promised Land," the “Touched by an Angel”spinoff also filmed in Utah,received no nominations. “The Larry Sanders Show" beat the net- work sitcoms with 16 nominations, the North iv 26 INT ?

Among HBO specials, “Miss Evers’ Boys,” received 12 nominations, and “Bette Midler; Diva Las Vegas” got 10. “This is a landmark moment,” HBO executive Chris Albrecht said Other pro;er making strong showings included “ Files" on Fox with 12 nominations and ABC's “NYPD Blue” with 11, “Frasier” and “Seinfeld,” both pn NBC, got nine each. ‘The Emmy Awards will be announced Sept. 14. ‘CBS got 60 nominations, ABC 44 and Fox 19, for a network total of 212, HBO and 14 other cable channels got a record 138 nominations in all, In 1988, the first year cable was even recognized by the Emmys, HBO received six nominations. ‘Thursday's nominations opened the door } on another era; The first Emmy recognition of TV commercialexcellence. Thefive nominated commercials included a Levi's jeans spot in which twostrangers’ eyes lock in an elevator and they share a funny, fast-forward fantasy of courtship and marriage. Members of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences proved unsentimental, fail- ing to nominate Roseanneforthefinal season of“Roseanne.” Also overlooked were series unveiled during the 1996-97 season, including the acclaimed “The Practice.” The academy voters did salute Ellen De- Generes of “Ellen” with a best comedic actress nomination in a year in which the ABC sitcom drew both praise and criticism for bringing DeGeneres’ character out as a lesbian. “ER” hunk George Clooney, who's been splitting his time between TV and movies of late, was bypassed for the first time in the show's three years. Co-stars Anthony Edwards, Julianna Margulies and Sherry Stringfield got lead acting nominations, “Home Improvement" star Tim Allen, last nominated in 1993, missed out again, But his co-star Patricia Richardson got nominated, “Friends” didn't receive a best-comedy nomination, although an error during the awards announcement briefly had the show among the nominees. A real supporting actress nomination did go to Lisa Kudrow as flaky Phoebe. “I was expecting to be disappointed,” said “X-Files” creator Chris Carter, “The show becamereally popularthis year, and 1 thought there might be a backlash.
