The 2023 Primetime Emmy Nominations Are Here

And just like that ... awards season is almost here.

Even though the writer's strike and maybe-it'll-happen, maybe-it-won't actor's strike is looming over the entertainment industry, the Emmys are still scheduled to kick off this year's awards season in the fall. 2023 marks the 75th anniversary of the Emmy Awards, which celebrate the best of primetime television. And with everyone being knee-deep in what the masses are saying is the new golden age of TV (there's just so much to watch and so little time to do it), this year's nominations may come as a surprise — especially with the final season of Succession and season 2 of The Bear on everyone's radars.

Critics lauded The Last Of Us , expecting the zombie epic to be up for at least an Outstanding Drama Series nomination, and with Succession's final bow happening, the same critics also expected Jeremy Strong, Brian Cox, and Kieran Culkin to be honored with Lead Actor nominations. Also of note is Rihanna, who could land her very first Emmy nomination for The Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show Starring Rihanna, which could be up for Outstanding Variety Special (Live). If honored, she could be up against Elton John and his special, Elton John Live: Farewell From Dodger Stadium.

Here are this year's nominations, so you can see all the snubs and surprises. The big show arrives on Monday, September 18, 2023, and will be televised on Fox.
