The biggest night in television is finally here.
The 77th edition of the annual Primetime Emmy Awards will be given out on Sunday night.
The best shows that came out sometime between June 2024 and May 2025 will be awarded across categories.
Apple TV+ is the big winner so far when it comes to nominations. Its fan-favorite show Severance picked up a total of 27 nominations. Lead actors Adam Scott and Britt Lower, who play Mark and Helly on the show, are both nominated for best actor nominations.
HBO’s The Batman spin-off show The Penguin came in second place with 24 nominations.
On the comedy side, critics believe Apple TV+’s take on Hollywood, The Studio, which got an impressive 23 nominations, will dominate the categories its nominated in — Hollywood loves Hollywood!
The Television Academy will also be honoring actor couple Ted Danson (famous for shows like Cheers and The Good Place) and Mary Steenburgen (who you might know from the movie Step Brothers) with the Bob Hope Humanitarian Award. The award is given to honor the philanthropic efforts of media figures and has been previously awarded to the likes of Oprah Winfrey and George Clooney.
The Emmy Awards are broken into two weekends. Last weekend’s Creative Arts Emmys focused on technical and guest acting categories. The Studio and The Penguin led that show with their wins.
The fan-favorite latest addition to the Star Wars series Andor won four Creative Arts Emmy Awards, including for outstanding fantasy/sci-fi costumes and visual effects. The show is up for an outstanding drama series award tonight but has tough competition against Severance and other big name nominees like HBO’s White Lotus and The Last of Us.
When is it?
