HOLLYWOOD—The contenders for the biggest accolade in the TV arena were announced on Wednesday, July 17. That’s right, the nominees for the 2024 Primetime Emmy Awards were revealed by “Veep” alum Tony Hale and “Abbot Elementary” star Sheryl Lee Ralph.
Big surprise as the FX series “Shogun” dominated with 25 nominations including Outstanding Drama Series and a bevy of nominations for acting. I have been hearing so much about this series, I’m seriously going to have to check it out.
Gotta say, not a lot of love for network TV people, Netflix and the streaming services totally dominated when it came to nominations for 2024. “The Bear” and “Only Murders in the Building” earned a total of 23 and 21 nominations respectively.
