As a dedicated fan of quality television and someone who has closely followed the Emmy Awards for years, I couldn’t be more thrilled by FX’s impressive performance at this year’s Emmys. It’s not every day that we get to witness such a significant shift in the TV landscape, with FX coming so close to overtaking HBO and Netflix in total nominations.
The people over at FX have got a lot to be psyched about today.
In the TV awards scene, where HBO and Netflix frequently take the lead, it was actually another premium cable network and its Hulu shows that won the most accolades for specific programs.
Based on the two most recognized projects of the year, “Shogun” in drama and “The Bear” in comedy, FX edged out HBO for the second-highest number of Emmy nominations. This is a first for FX as they have never come this close to leading in total Emmy nods, with Netflix securing an effortless victory this year due to its extensive lineup. The significance of FX’s second place among premium channels becomes even more intriguing when considering the distribution of nominations. With 93 nominations, one fewer than HBO and Max combined, FX managed to achieve this feat with only nine programs, one of which is a digital spin-off of “Shogun.”
As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share that FX truly shone at this year’s Emmy Awards, surpassing itself with an impressive number of nominations. Beyond the heavyweights like “Shogun” and “The Bear,” which bagged ten awards in January, there were standout performances from anthologies such as “Fargo” and “Feud.” Reality TV made its mark with “Welcome to Wrexham,” while “What We Do In the Shadows” added a dose of humor. And surprisingly, the final season of “Reservation Dogs” finally got the recognition it deserved after being overlooked in its earlier seasons. All in all, FX (and FX on Hulu) broke their previous record of 56 nominations in 2016, adding a substantial 37.
In the competition, Netflix led with an impressive 107 nominations, outpacing all other platforms. Apple achieved a record-breaking year with a total of 70 nominations, largely due to programming filmed prior to the Hollywood strikes in 2023. Conversely, HBO faced challenges as its number of nominations decreased significantly compared to previous years. Familiar Emmy contenders such as “The White Lotus” and “The Last of Us” were sidelined by delays caused by the strikes. Even without interruptions, “House of the Dragon,” a recent breakout hit for HBO, was not scheduled to release its second season during the nominations period which ended in May.
The Television Academy is currently processing all the submissions, so more information will be shared soon. Here’s the current state of the competition among streaming platforms:
- Netflix — 107 nominations
- FX — 93 nominations
- HBO — 91 nominations
- Apple — 70 nominations
