2023 Emmy nominations: KCRW's insider guide

Written by

Amidst a precarious TV/film landscape with SAG-AFTRA joining the WGA for the first dual actors/writers strike in over 60 years— nominations have dropped for the 75th annual Emmy awards complete with major hauls for hit series’ “Succession,” “Ted Lasso,” and “The White Lotus.” Graphic by Gabby Quarante for KCRW.

Nominations for the 75th annual Emmy Awards are out and the usual suspects are in — along with plenty of hotly-tipped newcomers, and just enough pleasant surprises to keep things spicy. Last year’s winner for Original Drama Series — HBO’s juggernaut legacy media tale Succession — leads the pack with 27 total nominations for the final season of its high-stakes family saga. On the comedy side, you’ll find last year’s Outstanding Comedy Series winner — Apple TV+’s heartwarming fish-out-of-water story Ted Lasso — still very much in the mix with 21 nominations for its (rumored) final season, which took a turn for the dramatic to center conversations around mental health. However, both shows face much stiffer competition this year as another HBO series — the luxury resort-set comedy of manners (or lack thereof) The White Lotus — moves from competing in Limited Series categories into Drama, meaning that it will square off with its network-mates Succession for many of its 23 nominations, and the searing post-apocalyptic video game adaptation The Last of Us which debuted earlier this year and picked up an impressive haul of 24 nominations.

Comedy, on the other hand, sees the full second season of ABC’s acclaimed workplace sitcom Abbott Elementary sharpening its competitive edge with its eight key nominations including Outstanding Comedy Series. Never underestimate the good will they’ve accumulated from Abbott’s win last year for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy: Sheryl Lee Ralph. (Revisit her mega viral speech here if you want to feel pure hope for the future of humanity.)

Outstanding Comedy newcomer The Bear, about a New York-based fine-dining chef returning to his hometown of Chicago to run his brother’s sandwich shop, finds its first season well represented with 13 nominations. It’s also currently riding high on a buzzy second season, packed to the brim with major guest stars

But this year’s proceedings around television’s highest honors bring with them more questions than answers. With SAG-AFTRA joining the WGA for the first dual actors/writers strike in over 60 years, it’s unclear what this year’s awards show will look like. The SAG-AFTRA strike would prohibit performers from engaging in campaigns around their nominated work (think: podcast interviews, FYC events, etc.). Those tasked with producing an Emmy ceremony may look to examples along the lines of last month’s special arrangement for a writer-less Tony Awards, and the Golden Globes press conference (in place of the typical soiree) which took place during the 2008 WGA strike.

Driving all of this, of course, is the work itself, and we’re here to point you in the direction of your favorite nominees breaking down their creative processes to KCRW. Read and listen on to catch up with many of Emmys’ heaviest hitters, and get the inside scoop on what makes them tick with KCRW’s complete coverage.
