- ‘Succession,’ ‘Ted Lasso,’ ‘White Lotus’ top Emmy nominees.
- HBO nabs 140 nominations to Netflix’s 105.
- ‘Squid Game’ is the first non-English language show nominated for best drama series.
Just like Logan Roy (Brian Cox) himself, HBO’s “Succession” once again comes out on top.
The show, which follows the dysfunctional Roy family’s fight for corporate power, leads the 2022 Primetime Emmy Awards race with 25 nominations, including outstanding drama series.
HBO’s “Succession” won best drama series in 2020 and is a strong competitor again, being nominated for five Directors Guild of America Awards in January. It will compete with Netflix’s “Squid Game,” the first non-English language show nominated for the title; Netflix’s “Ozark,” which released its final episodes in April; and Netflix’s “Stranger Things,” the most watched English-language series on the platform. AMC’s “Better Call Saul,” HBO’s “Euphoria,” Apple TV+’s “Severance” and Showtime’s “Yellowjackets” are also nominated in the category.
Emmy snubs 2022: Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston among actors left off nomination list
Zendaya is nominated again for outstanding lead actress in a drama series for her work on HBO’s “Euphoria.” The first season made her the youngest (and only the second) Black woman to win a lead actress drama Emmy for playing teen drug addict Rue Bennett. In Tuesday’s nominations, she again made history as the youngest producing Emmy nominee for the series. Zendaya is also up against BBC America’s “Killing Eve” stars Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer, who wrapped up their final season in April.
Last year’s comedy series winner Apple TV+’s “Ted Lasso,” which earned Jason Sudeikis an acting Emmy in the show’s first season, follows right behind “Succession” with 20 nominations, including another acting nomination for Sudeikis. Also nominated for outstanding comedy series are ABC’s “Abbott Elementary,” HBO’s “Barry,” HBO’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” FX’s “What We Do in the Shadows” and Amazon Prime’s “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.”
Also in the race: Hulu’s murder mystery “Only Murders in the Building” and HBO’s “Hacks,” which saw Jean Smart winning an acting Emmy in the show’s first season.
HBO’s social satire “The White Lotus” and Hulu’s nonfiction drama “Dopesick” are among nominees for outstanding limited series. “Lotus,” which follows employees and guests at a Hawaiian resort, is tied with “Ted Lasso” with 20 nominations and “Dopesick,” which showcases Purdue Pharma’s role in fueling the opioid addiction crisis, has 14.
HBO and HBO Max, with a leading total of 140 nominations, narrowly edged out Netflix’s 105 for the second year in a row.
The 74th Primetime Emmy Awards are set to air Sept. 12 on NBC. A host hasn’t yet been announced.
