The 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards, hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, are officially upon us, and even as the event pivoted to a mostly virtual affair, the results will still be the same: The best and brightest TV shows of the year will be celebrated, with their casts, crews, and creative teams walking home with several shiny prizes (though many categories were already announced at the Creative Arts Emmys last week).
This year, there are a lot of great shows in contention for the night’s biggest prizes. On the comedy side, you have Pop TV’s Schitt’s Creek, NBC’s The Good Place, HBO’s Insecure, Amazon‘s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Netflix’s The Kominsky Method, Netflix’s Dead to Me, HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm, and FX’s What We Do in the Shadows all competing for Outstanding Comedy Series. Meanwhile, for drama, Better Call Saul, The Crown, The Handmaid’s Tale, Ozark, Succession. Killing Eve, The Mandalorian, and Stranger Things are all contending for top honors. And competing for Outstanding Limited Series are Hulu’s Little Fires Everywhere, FX’s Mrs. America, Netflix’s Unbelievable and Unorthodox, and HBO’s Watchmen, the latter of which has already emerged as a frontrunner thanks to the Creative Arts Emmys.
