One of the unexpected fan fav’s of of Stranger Things season 1 was Shannon Purser’s character, “Barb”. She didn’t have a lot of screen time but fans really loved her.

She landed an Emmy nomination today for guest actress in a drama series. People think the Emmy’s did it as a publicity stunt to get some online buzz.

What do you think? Was Barb Emmy worthy or is this just a ploy to get people talking about the Emmy’s?
