  • Page, Don (May 19, 1972). "Changes Announced in Emmy Categories". Los Angeles Times. p. G24. ProQuest 157011854. The major category change was the "acknowledgement" of the limited or short series, which will hereafter be judged separately from the continuing series... The limited series, being separated from the continuing series, means that such shows as "Henry VIII" and "Elizabeth R" could not have been named best dramatic series at last Sunday's Emmy awards, nor would Glenda Jackson have won her Emmy for best actress in a series. Nor would Keith Michell have received his Emmy for best actor in a leading role for a segment of "Henry VIII". The academy denied the rules change was made because of any embarrassment over the British sweep.

  • Over a 23-day period in July and August 1988, the PBS series Rumpole of the Bailey was: initially nominated in this category;[22] then ruled ineligible, as each episode was a standalone story rather than a component of an ongoing miniseries story, replaced by the sixth place nomination, The Bourne Identity;[23] then reinstated in Outstanding Drama Series, with the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (ATAS) acknowledging that it had simply given the wrong advice to the producers of the British series as to what category to submit for.[24] As of 2024, despite this confirmed 23-day storyline, the ATAS website still shows Rumpole of the Bailey as having been nominated in the Miniseries category with no mention of The Bourne Identity,[21] while Rumpole of the Bailey is not mentioned in the Drama Series category of the website.[25]
  • As of 2024, the en.wiki article mislabels The Bourne Identity as a "television film", but acknowledges that the four hour show was spread over two nights, qualifying it as a miniseries - as confirmed by its Emmy nomination for Outstanding Miniseries.[23]
