Emmys 2024: Who will (and should) get nominations this year?

For the second time this year, we’re in the Emmy Awards grind. The delayed 2023 ceremony took place just this January, with the regularly scheduled one occurring in the fall. As for the latter, the 2024 Emmys have some stiff competition thanks to returning favorites such as Hacks, Abbott Elementary, and The Crown, as well as new hits like Shōgun and Fallout.

A few notes for those keeping score: FX might just make history if its originals win in the three top categories: Outstanding Drama, Comedy, and Limited Series. Will Shōgun, The Bear, and Fargo lead the cable network to glory? Or will Reservation Dogs do it instead? (Please, TV gods, don’t let that beautiful show go off into the sunset without getting the recognition it deserves.) Also, it’s not the strongest year for network TV, a common recent trend. And Netflix has some strong odds this time around because of Baby Reindeer and the excellent Ripley.

Before we get into it, here are the housekeeping details: The 76th Primetime Emmys are scheduled for September 15 on ABC. The eligibility period is for TV shows that aired from June 1, 2023, to May 31, 2024, voting for nominations is from June 13 to 24, with the announcement following on July 17.
