The second season of FX’s The Bear made Emmy history this morning, earning 23 nominations, passing the record for a comedy series previously held by 30 Rock with 22 nominations in 2009. The chef show, which just aired its third season, was nominated for Comedy Series, two in Directing, Writing, Lead Acting for Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri and eight other acting nominations among its mentions this morning. Nominations were announced by Emmy winners Tony Hale and Sheryl Lee Ralph, the latter of whom received her third nomination today for Abbott Elementary.
Shōgun leads this year’s Drama categories with 25 nominations, including Drama Series, Directing, Writing, Lead Acting for Anna Sawai and Hiroyuki Sanada plus three other acting nods. Earlier this year, FX gave the green light for two more seasons of the feudal Japan series based on the novel by James Clavell, lifting it out of the very crowded limited series field and giving it a berth in drama that paid off handsomely.
That one-two punch, along with big numbers for Fargo and Feud: Capote vs. the Swans, led FX Networks to the most Primetime Emmy nominations in the history of the network with 93. Apple TV+ also landed a record 70 nominations for the streamer with multiple series’ recognized, including The Morning Show, Palm Royale, Lessons in Chemistry and Slow Horses. Netflix led all studios, streamers and networks with 107 nominations, with over 30 individual shows receiving nominations and led by its crown jewel, The Crown, for its final season, and limited series’ Ripley and Baby Reindeer. The streaming giant still holds the record for most nominations in a single year (160 in 2020) and tied for most wins (44 in 2021, alongside CBS in 1974). HBO | Max received 91 nominations across 28 original programs.
The final season of Curb Your Enthusiasm ties the series nomination record of 11, joining Cheers, Law & Order, and M*A*S*H.
All five Outstanding Television Movie nominees – Mr. Monk’s Last Case: A Monk Movie; Quiz Lady; Red, White & Royal Blue; Scoop and Unfrosted – each only earned one single Emmy nomination, only in this category.
“Television delivers stories that connect us, uplift us, challenge us, and always entertain us. Today, I am honored to celebrate the outstanding work of our extraordinarily talented and hardworking creative community,” said Television Academy Chair Cris Abrego, who introduced Hale and Ralph and returned to present the Comedy Series nominees. “This morning’s Emmy nominations are a testament to their contributions and highlight the incredible programming that has risen to the top of an exceptional year in TV.”
The Television Academy’s approximately 24,000 members made their choices from 229 total series’ submitted in the drama, comedy and limited/anthology series categories in 2024, a drop of 33% from last year, due in part to the double strikes that hit Hollywood last summer, lasting through the fall.
