LOS ANGELES, CA — Emmy fans, your wait is over! The 75th Emmy Awards will finally take place on January 15, after a four-month delay caused by labor unrest and Hollywood's disputes in the film and television industry.
Originally scheduled for September 2023, the annual television awards ceremony has been postponed due to a prolonged work stoppage that began in May when the Writers Guild of America (WGA) hit the picket lines. In July, the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) followed suit.
The two unions and studios finally reached an agreement in November, ending six tumultuous months of impasse in contract negotiations. In the end, both writers' unions and unions succeeded in securing provisions for a higher minimum wage as well as protections against the use of artificial intelligence.
So, get excited, TV friends! The biggest night in television is upon us. And the timing couldn't be more perfect for the Emmys' diamond anniversary celebration. For once, TV's biggest night is happening in the heat of awards season, a week after the 2024 Golden Globes.
This year, actor and comedian Anthony Anderson takes center stage as master of ceremonies for the first time. HBO's “Succession” is the TV show to beat. The one percent dynasty drama series leads all Emmy nominees with 27 nominations for its fourth and final season, including best drama as well as acting for Brian Cox, Jeremy Strong, Kieran Culkin and Sarah Snook. Will 'Succession' take home the most Emmys of the night?
All eyes will also be on Apple TV+'s “Ted Lasso,” as it leads the comedy categories with 21 nominations, including best comedy series and best actor for Jason Sudeikis.
But the big question is: Will HBO's total of 127 nominations prevail over Netflix's impressive 103 nominations? Regardless, it's time to bust out the booze and get ready to watch the biggest night of television of the year.
Here's how to watch the 75th Emmy Awards and all the preview events so you can get the answers to these burning questions in real time.
