The 2024 Emmy Awards have begun, honoring the best television from last year.
In the drama category, “Shōgun” came into the 76th annual Primetime Emmy Awards with 25 nominations, the most of any show. “The Bear” led the pack in the comedy category with 23 nominations, the most for any comedy ever, beating out the previous record of 22 set by “30 Rock” in 2009. “Only Murders in the Building” earned 21 nominations, the third most of any show.
Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon are competing against each other for best actress in a drama series for their roles on Apple TV+’s “The Morning Show,” which got 16 nods.
Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai were nominated for best actor and actress, respectively, for their roles in “Shōgun.”
Sunday night’s festivities are the second Emmy Awards ceremony to be held in the 2024 calendar year, as the 75th annual Primetime Emmy Awards were delayed until January of this year due to the writers’ and actors’ strikes of 2023.
The ceremony is being hosted by father-son duo and “Schitt’s Creek” stars Dan and Eugene Levy. It is being broadcast live on ABC from the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles.
