The Television Academy has announced the nominations for the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards on Wednesday. Before the official announcements, the Emmy nominations for the newly created categories, Outstanding Variety Series and Outstanding Reality Competition Program, were announced on NBC’s Today.
Past Emmy winners Liza Colón-Zayas and Jeff Hiller revealed more of the nominees during a livestream from the Academy’s Saban Media Center. Last year’s big winner, The Pitt, led the nominations with 25 nods, while the final season of Hacks closely followed with 24.
Apple TV’s Widow’s Bay (19) and Pluribus (18) and Netflix’s Beef (16) were also major players among the nominees. Here is a complete list of all the nominees.
