"Shōgun" tops 2024 Emmy nominations, followed by record-breaking comedy nods for "The Bear"
"Shōgun" and "The Bear" both lead the way as the most Emmy-nominated shows in 2024, with "Shōgun" landing 25 nominations and "The Bear" smashing comedy nomination records with 23 nods.
"The Bear" rocked the television world with its fast-paced, anxiety-inducing dialogue, erratic characters and viral omelettes filled with crushed-up potato chips. Critical darling "Shōgun" made a splash for its adaptation of the 1975 James Clavell novel of the same name, which tells the tale of an Englishman who becomes a samurai in feudal Japan.
In a live telecast in Los Angeles on Wednesday, Chair of the Television Academy, Cris Abrego, Sheryl Lee Ralph from "Abbott Elementary" and Tony Hale from "Veep," announced this year's Emmy nominations.
These awards include nods for "Shōgun" lead actors Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai and "The Bear" actors Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri and Ebon Moss-Bachrach.
If it feels like the Emmys just happened not too long ago, you aren't the only one. Last year's industry-wide dual strike postponed the 2023 Emmys to January 2024. Abrego addressed the short timeframe on the livestream, "I know it may seem like we just celebrated the Emmys because we did. With a special ceremony honoring the 2022 and 2023 season in January this year."
This year the 2024 Emmys are set to air on ABC on Sunday, Sept. 15.
