The nominees of the 76th edition of the Emmy Awards were announced last Wednesday, and it was clear to everyone that the big winners were, ‘The Bear’ and ‘Shogun’ both FX productions.
‘The Bear’ racked up a record-breaking 23 nominations, breaking the record set by ’30 Rock’ back in 2009 for most Emmy nominations by a comedy series. This did come with some controversy with many believing that ‘The Bear’ should not be classified as a comedy but as a drama due to its intense nature.
‘Shogun’ managed to obtain an immense 25 nominations in the drama category, falling short of the 32 nominations record set by ‘Game of Thrones’ back in 2016.
Well known shows “The Crown,“ The Morning Show” and “Only Murders in the Building” also got multiple nominations, as did comedy “Abbott Elementary.”
World renowned actors such as Donald Glover, Idris Elba, Gary Oldman, Jennifer Aniston, Imelda Staunton and Reese Witherspoon were all nominated for Outstanding lead actor and actresses.
