Emmys 2024 Showbiz and Celebrity Breaking News

If some of the Drama and Comedy series acting categories are scrounging for legitimate nominees, the Limited Series and TV movie fields are effectively a bloodbath in comparison. At this point, there are just three actors likely to make the five and only five nominating field: Jodie Foster (“True Detective: Night Country”), Juno Temple (“Fargo”), and Brie Larson (“Lessons in Chemistry”).

To say it’s been an incredible year for Leo Woodall is something of an understatement. The 27-year-old actor has already filmed the new Apple TV+ series “Prime Target,” is currently filming James Vanderbilt’s feature drama “Nuremberg” alongside Rami Malek and Russell Crowe, among others, and will follow that up with a pivotal role in the fourth “Bridget Jones” movie.

Two and a half years ago, Jess Hong hit the big time. Like most streaming series, however, it took awhile to reap the benefits.

If there is any Emmy field that is utterly wide open it’s Lead Actress in a Drama Series. Despite the decline of Peak TV, there should be enough submissions for six nominees as was the case the past four years.

The 2024 Emmy category for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series is so wide open that not only is picking the nominees a crapshoot, but we’re not even sure there is a legitimate frontrunner yet to win it (or ever will be). The reason is a rare one in Emmy land, it appears none of 2023’s nominees are eligible this go around.

Some categories are competitive this Emmy season and some categories are not. Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series certainly qualifies as the latter.

Is it possible we have a snub or even two in the Lead Actor in a Comedy Series category? The Ladies may be searching high and low for two nominees to round out the field, but the gentlemen face a somewhat more competitive race. And that’s a big emphasis on “somewhat.” One thing is for sure, last year’s winner, Jeremy Allen White, will absolutely be nominated again and is once again the frontrunner for his performance in season two of “The Bear.” Comedy legend Martin Short should also earn his third nod for “Only Murders in the Building.” Beyond those two actors, however, things may or may not get interesting.

If television is a snapshot of our times, there are several moments in the fourth season of HBO’s groundbreaking reality docuseries “We’re Here” that should be a major wake-up call for anyone who believes in free speech, human rights, and artistic expression in the United States. After the events in season three, which saw the show face vocal opposition in visits to Florida and St.

Keeping a television series fresh and engaging after its first few seasons is always a difficult task. It often separates the classic TV shows from the also-rans.

The Peabody Board of Jurors released the rest of the 2024 Peabody Awards nominees today and the results were somewhat surprising. Comprising the Arts, Children’s/Youth, Entertainment, Interactive, and Immersive categories, the list of honorees included anticipated programs such as “The Last of Us,” “The Bear” and “Bluey.” What was something of a shock was a snub of the critically acclaimed and awards favorite, “Beef.” READ MORE: “20 Days in Mariupol” and “The Eternal Memory” among early 2024 Peabody Awards nominees Beyond “Last of Us” and “The Bear,” other Entertainment category nominees include “Poker Face,” “Lupin,” “Blue Eyed Samurai,” “Somebody Somewhere,” “Dead Ringers,” “Reservation Dogs,” “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: Israel-Hamas War,” “Reality,” and “Jury Duty.” Surprising nominees included “Fellow Travelers” and “The Fall of the House of Usher.” On the Children/Youth front, “Bluey” was joined by fellow Disney+ series “Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur,” and “Summer Camp Island.” The Arts category features “Can You Bring It: Bill T.

We almost wish “One Day” was a continuous series. Not because we wanted to extend the narrative of David Nichols’ original novel, but because if it was a drama series we’d be assured stars Ambika Mod and Leo Woodall would almost be guaranteed to receive the Emmy love they deserve.

Rebecca Ferguson is becoming close to a household name. O.K., maybe “close” is a slight exaggeration, but her profile is bigger than her social media presence, and that’s primarily because her resume over the past decade is filled with one banger after another.

The most competitive genre this Emmy season is Limited Series or Anthology Series and it’s not even close. There are likely four to five highly acclaimed programs that won’t make the five-nominee field.

It’s been two long years, but “Hacks” is finally back for a third season. The breakout Max series was originally intended to return in 2023, but health issues and multiple strikes pushed that back a year Now, two-time Emmy winner Jean Smart (she has five overall) and Emmy nominee Hannah Einbinder find their characters at a crossroads.

If the final episode of season two is the last of “Tokyo Vice,” the MAX series saw several storylines come to a fitting conclusion. Speaking to creator J.T.

In hindsight, perhaps the Television Academy’s decision to keep eight nominees for the Drama and Comedy Series categories was a mistake. The former will be fine, but the Drama Series category is something of, well, a potential embarrassment of historic proportions.

If any Emmy category actually deserves eight nominations this year, it’s Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series. Unfortunately, the Television Academy has once again decided to restrict this particular field to just five nominees.

If we learned anything over the guild awards marathon earlier this year it’s that the industry simply adores “The Bear.” You could not attend a ceremony where any television award was being handed out without the hit FX series dominating the proceedings. In fact, we think from a guild perspective it took home more trophies than even “Oppenheimer” (or at least it seemed that way).

After its incredible streaming success and complete and utter domination at the 2023 Emmy Awards this past January, it was no surprise that “The Bear” would eventually be renewed for a fourth season.
