The 2025 Emmy nominations are here, and although expected contenders Severance and The Studio lead the way, there were some major snubs and surprises.
In Outstanding Drama Series, Disney series Andor received a nod although there was sadly nothing for leading man Diego Luna; instead, Pedro Pascal took a slot in the Outstanding Lead Actor category for The Last of Us, despite only being in a few episodes.
The last season of The Handmaid's Tale was also shut out with no nods for the series in Drama or Actress for Elizabeth Moss.
© CBSNetwork shows were locked out of the top categories bar Kathy Bates for Matlock, while Meghann Fahy received a surprising nod for her work in Netflix's Sirens, as did Irish actress Sharon Horgan for Bad Sisters.
Kathy, 77, is now the oldest nominee in the Outstanding Actress category ever.
There were only four major nods for HBO's The Pitt, coming in for Outstanding Drama Series, Actor for Noah Wyle, Supporting Actress for breakout star Katherine LaNasa, and Guest Actor for Shawn Hatosy, despite hopes that Taylor Dearden and Patrick Ball may slip into supporting categories.
Catherine O'Hara has two major nods for her work in The Studio (Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series) and The Last of Us (Outstanding Guest Actress In A Drama Series).
The Studio swept the Guest Actor in a Comedy Series category with The Bear's Jon Bernthal going up against Bryan Cranston, Dave Franco, Ron Howard, Anthony Mackie, and director Martin Scorsese, the majority of whom played themselves in the Apple TV+ comedy.
The nominations were announced by Brenda Song and Harvey Guillén.
The first Emmys took place in 1949, and in the decades since there have only been a handful of TV shows that have swept the main seven categories; Angels in America in 2004 in Limited or Anthology Series, Schitt's Creek in Comedy in 2020, and The Crown for Drama in 2021.
The 2025 Emmys will be held on September 14, 2025 with comedian Nate Bargatze as the ceremony's host.
