Even after her numerous nominations, voters apparently do not know who she is, the applause at the GG was a little embarrassing, as always the men division is tougher. Another snub imo.

Personally, I believe it comes down to the fact that the other contenders are more household names. They have done many other projects and its their body of work and evolution is clearer. Even though we’ve just finished S3 of Outlander, by-and-large, its a breakthrough and the the actors are not well known for other things. Least that’s what I’d like to think

The Outlander print shop reunion scene, would
be a great piece to play at the Emmy’s.

I was discouraged by the Critic’s Choice crowd’s response to Caitriona’s name vs. the names of the other nominees. Clearly they are either unimpressed by Outlander, or more likely simply not watching it. I suspect it’s overlooked not only because it’s fantasy, but also because it doesn’t reflect hot-button social issues as clearly as does, say, The Handmaid’s Tale. Of course, Outlander makes a very empowering statement about women–but the awards voters have to actually watch it to realize that. :-(
