The nominations for the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards were announced today. While it was a mostly predictable affair, the announcement still sprinkled in a few welcome surprises among the expected contenders. The FX/Hulu contingent had a remarkable showing with two series dominating the proceedings. The feudal Japan-set drama "Shōgun" fared better than any other series with 25 nominations, and acclaimed dramedy "The Bear" set a new record for a comedy series with 23 nods.
Netflix ended up with the most nominations of any studio with 107. Leading their roster was surprise hit "Baby Reindeer," which received 11 nominations, including acting nods for creator Richard Gadd, Jessica Gunning, Nava Mau, and Tom Goodman-Hill.
Several breakthroughs and firsts were celebrated, including Lily Gladstone (“Under the Bridge”) and Kali Reis (“True Detective”) becoming the first indigenous women to receive acting nominations. In its final season, FX’s “Reservation Dogs” scored its first Emmy nomination for Best Comedy Series. The show's star D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai also earned his first acting nod as did Selena Gomez for "Only Murders in the Building."
Other interesting stories coming out of the nomination announcement include the late Treat Williams receiving a posthumous nomination for "Feud: Capote vs. The Swans" and a surprise nod for Idris Elba as lead actor in a drama for “Hijack.” Elba edged out contenders like Cosmo Jarvis in “Shogun,” Colin Farrell in “Sugar,” and Nathan Fielder in “The Curse.”
The 76th Primetime Emmys airs September 15th on ABC, just eight months after the previous ceremony which was delayed due to the writers' and actors' strikes.
