Apple TV+ Leads 2025 Emmy Nominations

The 2025 Primetime Emmy nominations were led by Apple TV+'s 'Severance,' which received a record-breaking 27 nominations, including Best Drama and nine acting nods, notably recognizing Britt Lower. Apple TV+ productions overall amassed 81 nominations, with 'The Studio' tying the comedy record at 23. The acting categories drew attention for being dominated by a few shows, resulting in several acclaimed series and performers being overlooked. Broadcast television saw a resurgence, with Kathy Bates of 'Matlock' earning a Lead Actress nomination, the first for a broadcast drama since 2021. Newcomers like 'The Penguin' and 'Adolescence' made strong debuts, while established series such as 'The Bear' and 'The White Lotus' continued their success. The 77th Primetime Emmy Awards will be held on September 14, 2025, at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles.
