Shōgun Wins Record 25 Emmy Awards

Disney's recent Emmy success, with 'Shōgun' winning 18 out of 25 nominations, is overshadowed by the turbulent leadership succession between Bob Iger and Bob Chapek. The New York Times highlights the chaotic transition marked by power struggles and poor decision-making, particularly Chapek's controversial moves that alienated creatives. Despite Iger's return as CEO until 2026, his leadership style is criticized, and both executives are portrayed unfavorably in this narrative of mismanaged succession. Meanwhile, FX's 'Shōgun' is celebrated for its historical storytelling and is now being considered for additional seasons, although FX Networks chairman John Landgraf remains cautious about confirming a third season. The show has set records for wins and nominations, cementing its place in television history as a standout series. With the first season acclaimed, 'Shōgun' is being lauded as a must-watch on Hulu for its unique narrative and cultural depth.
