"It was so surreal," says 'Broken' star Miles Tagtmeyer on his Emmy nomination for Best Actor

Miles' performance in 'Broken' earned him a nomination for Best Actor in a Short Form Comedy or Drama series.

Suspenseful, heart-wrenching, thought-provoking, and thrilling in equal measure, the six episodes of 'Broken' chronicle the story of Liam (Miles Tagtmeyer), who, nearing the one-year anniversary of his best friend's death, is still struggling to cope with the loss.

Therapy sessions chip away at his unease, but his confusion about the events surrounding the death continue to escalate. As Liam descends into madness, he will have to either come to terms with the loss or risk losing himself forever. To give any more away would be to deprive audiences of the opportunity to treat themselves to one of the best short-form drama series of 2018, and rest assured, at a crisp six-and-a-half to eight-odd minutes per episode, it is worth your time.

A stellar script is reinforced with breakthrough performances from both Miles and co-star Lee Garlington, who plays the role of Darlene in the series. Their execution of their multi-faceted, intrinsically complex characters didn't go unnoticed either, with both earning Primetime Emmy nominations for Outstanding Actor/Actress Comedy or Drama Short Format. If the stars align, they could very well boast one of the prestigious awards in their trophy cabinet come, this September-end.
