2025 Emmys Expected to Highlight Severance, The Pitt, Multiple Top Nominations

The 77th Emmy Awards, set for September 14, 2025, in Los Angeles, highlight a competitive landscape with Apple TV+ and HBO/HBO Max leading nominations, particularly with shows like Severance, The Pitt, and The White Lotus contending for top drama honors. Severance leads with 27 nominations, competing against acclaimed dramas such as Andor, The Diplomat, and The Pitt, while comedies like Abbott Elementary, The Bear, Hacks, and The Studio vie for top comedy awards. Industry critics predict The Pitt may take home the Outstanding Drama Series award, though some argue Andor deserves the win for its storytelling and character depth. Notable acting nominations include Kathy Bates, Sharon Horgan, Britt Lower, and Bella Ramsey for lead drama roles, with Colin Farrell and Stephen Graham as contenders for lead limited series actor. The ceremony will be hosted by comedian Nate Bargatze, who aims to keep the event entertaining and lighthearted. The Pitt’s cast has noted the show's passionate fandom and praised the depth of its second season, which is reflected in its 13 Emmy nods.
