2025 Emmy Nominations: The Complete List

What We Do In the Shadows star Harvey Guillen and Running Point's Brenda Song were tapped to announce the noms, ahead of the live telecast on Sunday, September 14 on CBS and Paramount+. The first two categories -- Outstanding Talk Series and Reality Competition Program -- were revealed first on CBS Mornings, with both Seth Meyers and Jimmy Fallon getting snubbed from the former.

To be eligible this year for an Emmy, the shows had to have premiered between June 1, 2024 and May 31, 2025 -- which, for Emmy favorite The Bear, means we're talking about Season 3, and not the most recent season that dropped in June.

Both The Bear and Hacks dominated the Comedy categories in 2024 and are once again strong contenders this year, where they'll both face off against newcomers, including The Studio and Nobody Wants This, and returning faves like Abbott Elementary and Only Murders In the Building.

The Studio came out strong, now tying with The Bear's record from 2024 for the most nominations of all time -- 23 -- for a comedy series in a single year. The Bear, meanwhile, landed 13 this year.

Even more trophies on the Drama side, however, are up for grabs -- after Shōgun nabbed Outstanding Series, Lead Actor and Actress, as well as Guest Actor last year. With no second season of Shōgun just yet, expect newcomer The Pitt to come for a number of those categories in 2025, along with returning faves like The White Lotus, The Last of Us, and Severance.

Severance pulled in the most noms overall, with 27, followed by The Penguin at 24, The White Lotus with 23 and The Last of Us with 16.

Limited Series is a hot category this year too, with Netflix's Adolescence, HBO's The Penguin and Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story all in the running.

This is also the last outing for The Handmaid's Tale, which wrapped up its final season back in May -- only scoring one nomination for guest star Cherry Jones.

First-time noms this year include Harrison Ford, Javier Bardem, Colin Farrell, Kristen Bell, Adam Brody, Ike Barinholtz, Zoe Kravitz, Jake Gyllenhaal, J.K. Simmons, and Chloë Sevigny.

Beyoncé also picked up two nominations for Netflix's Beyoncé Bowl special, while the special itself earned four noms overall. Also worth noting: Hulu's The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives picked up its first nomination too, for reality program.
