National: Anticipated Big Wins for ‘Succession’ and ‘Last of Us’ in 2023 Emmy Awards Nominations

The year has been exceptional for television, and the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards are here to celebrate the outstanding shows, including HBO’s Succession and The Last of Us. Yvette Nicole Brown and Frank Scherma, the Television Academy chairman, revealed the Emmy nominations on Wednesday despite the ongoing writers strike, which created a more somber atmosphere. On top of that, an actors strike might be on the horizon as the largest union representing around 160,000 actors demands better compensation for streaming productions and protection against the use of artificial intelligence (AI).

Succession, a satirical dramedy depicting the power struggle within a wealthy family controlling a media conglomerate, garnered the most nominations, setting the stage for its highly anticipated final season. Brian Cox, Jeremy Strong, and Kieran Culkin received Best Actor nominations, while Sarah Snook, who portrays Shiv Roy, is a leading contender for the Best Actress award. The show dominates the nominations with a staggering total of 27. The Last of Us follows closely behind with 24, and The White Lotus received 23 nominations.

These nodulations for The Last of Us and The White Lotus, two other HBO productions, reinforce the dominance of streaming services in the television industry. The Last of Us stars Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey received nominations for Best Actor and Actress due to their emotionally charged performances as survivors bonded by trauma. (Ramsey identifies as nonbinary and uses any pronouns). Jennifer Coolidge, last year’s Emmy winner for Outstanding Actress in a Limited Series or Movie, is nominated alongside her co-stars from The White Lotus, Aubrey Plaza and Meghann Fahy. Christina Applegate, who announced a possible retirement from acting due to her multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis, scored a nomination for Best Lead Actress in a Comedy for Dead to Me. Barry, The Bear, Ted Lasso, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Abbott Elementary also received multiple nominations.
