The 76th Primetime Emmys series should be a banger. At least, that would be the hope after years of pandemic hiccups and the open-ended WGA strike last year. This year also will be missing a few shows that have historically dominated categories, so the odds feel more wide open without Succession or The White Lotus to dominate the drama and limited series categories.
With that said, there are some presumed frontrunner series. That would include FX’s Shōgun and The Bear along with ABC’s Abbott Elementary, Netflix’s Baby Reindeer, and Prime Video/Amazon’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith. In other words, get ready for the awards half-season drama to begin with the broadcast coming on Sunday, September 15.
