\u201cShogun\u201d and \u201cThe Bear\u201d Lead the Way at the 76th Emmys<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards and leading all programs with 25 nominations is \u201cShogun\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

after its first season. On the comedy side, it\u2019s all about \u201cThe Bear\u201d once again. Between<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShogun\u201d and \u201cThe Bear\u201d alone FX is having a huge year and may need a U-Haul to carry all of<\/p>\n\n\n\n

their awards. Let’s take a look at a few key categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comedy Series<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is \u201cThe Bear\u2019s\u201d category to lose. Remember, this edition of the awards show is based on<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the second season of the hit FX series which originally aired in June of 2023. With 23<\/p>\n\n\n\n

nominations this time around, it breaks the 22-nomination record for a comedy series held by<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c30 Rock\u201d from back in 2009. There is a good chance that they also surpass their own record for<\/p>\n\n\n\n

most wins by a comedy series in a single year with 10 last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both ABC\u2019s \u201cAbbott Elementary\u201d HBO\/Max\u2019s \u201cHacks\u201d have played second fiddle to first \u201cTed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lasso\u201d and then \u201cThe Bear\u201d for the last few years but could this be the year that one of these<\/p>\n\n\n\n

two bridesmaids go from perennial contender to Emmy award winner?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drama Series<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

FX\u2019s highly acclaimed drama \u201cShogun\u201d is the odds on favorite to take home the network’s first<\/p>\n\n\n\n

drama series victory. That being said, it\u2019s not as much of a done deal as you may think. With<\/p>\n\n\n\n

other first season shows such as Mr. and Mrs. Smith making a push there is also the final<\/p>\n\n\n\n

season of Netflix\u2019s monarchy drama \u201cThe Crown\u201d making noise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many analysts have pointed to the precedent set by Season 8 of HBO\u2019s \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

which won in this category at the 2019 Emmy awards despite being universally panned. Could<\/p>\n\n\n\n

we see some voters cast ballots with rose colored glasses rather than seeing the final season of<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Crown\u201d for what it really was?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comedy Actor<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeremy Allen White is the favorite to repeat as the winner in this category for his performance as<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carmen \u201cCarmy\u201d Berazatto in \u201cThe Bear\u201d. The only thing that could hamper a victory for White,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

is if voters skew their view and forget they\u2019re voting for Season 2 and not the mix reviewed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Season 3. Scene stealer Matt Berry of \u201cWhat We Do In The Shadows\u201d has made a late push to<\/p>\n\n\n\n

dethrone his fellow FX actor and is definitely worth a second look on the board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comedy Actress<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both Jean Smart and Ayo Edebiri are the two leading favorites in this category with Smart<\/p>\n\n\n\n

having taken home the statuette for Lead Comedy Actress already twice before for her role in<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHacks\u201d. Edebiri did win an Emmy last year but that was in the supporting category for her work<\/p>\n\n\n\n

as Sydney in \u201cThe Bear\u201d. That being said, \u201cAbbott Elementary\u2019s\u201d Quinta Brunson is the 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lead Comedy Actress winner and does have a shot at a repeat this year as well.It\u2019s the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards and leading all programs with 25 nominations is \u201cShogun\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
