FULL LIST: Shogun, The Bear dominate Nominations for Emmy Awards 2024

The 2024 Primetime Emmy Awards have unveiled nominations for this year’s top television honours. The announcement comes ahead of the September ceremony, which will take place just months after the delayed 2023 Emmy Awards, broadcast in January due to last year’s actors’ and writers’ strikes.

On Wednesday, July 17, Veep star Tony Hale and Abbott Elementary’s Sheryl Lee Ralph revealed the contenders for this year’s awards. As anticipated, FX’s historical drama Shogun and dark comedy The Bear received multiple nominations, alongside Richard Gadd’s controversial Netflix hit, Baby Reindeer.

The Primetime Emmys are open to shows broadcast in the US between June 1, 2023, and May 31, 2024, with the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences selecting the nominees. The winners will be announced during the live ceremony on Sunday, September 15.
