Pedro Pascal, Jenna Ortega, Jodie Foster, and other stars are set to present at the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards, representing critically acclaimed television series and Emmy-nominated programs across various genres. The event, hosted by Anthony Anderson, will take place on January 15 and will be broadcast on Fox, with streaming available on Hulu the following day.
As the Emmy season takes a pause, several unanswered questions remain, including who will host the Emmys, whether the Creative Arts Emmys will conflict with the Golden Globes, who will represent the TV Academy with the chairman's term ending, if there will be Emmy parties, the status of the Daytime Emmys, and the possibility of the Primetime Emmys being canceled. However, it is expected that HBO's "Succession" will dominate the awards.
The 75th Primetime Emmys ceremony, originally scheduled for September 18, has been postponed due to ongoing strikes in the entertainment industry. The exact rescheduled date is yet to be determined, but Fox is aiming for January 2024 while the TV Academy prefers November. The strikes have halted production and promotion, preventing actors and writers from participating in campaigning and preparation for the event. HBO leads the nominations with "Succession" receiving 27 nods, followed by "The Last of Us" and "The White Lotus."
Emmy voting is coming to a close, with all ballots due by 10pm PT on Monday. The sheer volume of content out there is staggering, so voters want to be as responsible as they can and see as much as they can before putting those check marks down. Meanwhile, Oscar season is lurking around the corner, with the upcoming 50th Annual Telluride Film Festival being one of the three Fall Fests that signal the start of the movie awards season. Much of the talk at the Telluride Hollywood bash was not about which potential movies might be going, but what David Zaslav is doing to beloved TCM, the Warner/Discovery owned classic movie channel whose key executives became a victim of studio cutbacks this week.
The Writers Guild of America (WGA) has suspended all Emmy FYC advertising on its website and email communications, even for ads that have already been paid for, as part of its ongoing strike against several companies. The WGA is offering companies a full refund or credit for future FYCs. Some companies are reallocating their funds for FYC promotion elsewhere. The WGA is striking to secure better compensation, minimum television writing staff sizes, and a minimum number of weeks of employment for their writers. Negotiations between the WGA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers have been ongoing since March 20.
The TV Academy is offering networks and studios the option to cancel their upcoming Emmy FYC events if the writers strike limits the possibility of continuing such an event. The Writers Guild has stated that writers are prohibited from making promotional appearances about their work until the strike concludes, causing confusion among networks, studios, and writers. The TV Academy has provided three options for networks and studios with booked FYC events: proceed with the event as originally scheduled, proceed with the event as scheduled with an adjusted panel or without a panel, or cancel the event altogether.
