With 25 nominations and 14 wins at the technical awards ceremony the series, set in Japan and which explores the struggle for power between feudal lords and the unexpected arrival of an English navigator in the country, was recognized by the academy in practically all dramatic categories, including best series, actor, actress, supporting actor, screenplay and direction.

In recent years, The Emmy favorite series were the most nominated in their respective years such as “Succession” in 2022 and 2023. Therefore, it is quite likely that this epic drama will emerge victorious. If it wins, “Shogun” will become the first FX series to win the top prize and the first non-English-language production to win (being the second non-English-language nominee, after “Round 8”).

“Shogun: The Glorious Saga of Japan” is the heavy favorite to win in all Drama categories at the ceremony, except for Best Supporting Actress. In that category, the award should go to Elizabeth Debicki , for her portrayal of Princess Diana in the final season of “The Crown” .

Best Comedy Series

In the comedy category, “The Bear” should once again stand out as the best of the year. Although many argue that the series starring Jeremy Allen White is not a traditional comedy like other contenders, it continues to be a global phenomenon and is this year’s most nominated comedy. In addition, Emmy voters often repeat winners in the category.

Historically, the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has shown a tendency to repeatedly award the same productions. In recent years, series such as “Ted Lasso “, “Veep “, “Modern Family ” and “30 Rock have won back-to-back wins in the Best Comedy category . This pattern fuels the expectation that the series set in the chaotic kitchen of a restaurant could also join this select group.

“The Bear” is the favorite in the night’s main comedy categories, with the exception of Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, awards that should go to Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder both from “Hacks”. However, there is a possibility that the veteran Meryl Streep surprise and win as Best Supporting Actress for “Only Murders in the Building“.

Best Limited Series or Anthology

The Best Miniseries or Anthology category already has a favorite, but the number of nominations will not be the deciding factor .

This year, “Baby Reindeer” emerges as the main candidate for victory, even with only 11 nominations compared to the 16 of “True Detective,” its biggest competitor. Surprisingly, the limited series, created, written by and starring comedian Richard Gadd , broke viewership records on Netflix has received critical acclaim and has remained at the center of entertainment discussions since its debut, which can benefit your campaign .

In the Emmys’ popular voting system, in which all Academy members can vote in any category, the most-watched and talked-about series tend to stand out. This reinforces the position of “Baby Reindeer” as a strong contender for the 2024 Emmys. However, the competition remains tight.

“Baby Reindeer” May Face Competition From “True Detective” HBO which, under the direction of Issa López became the most watched season of the anthology, or of “Ripley”, another Netflix production.

In the other categories, “Ripley” has a good chance of securing the Best Actor award for Andrew Scott and a possible win for Directing. “True Detective” is the favorite in the Best Actress race, with Jodie Foster Oscar winner, as the leading candidate for the award.
