The 2026 Emmy nominations have been revealed.
The nominees for the 78th Emmy Awards were announced Wednesday morning. Emmy winners Liza Colón-Zayas, known for her role as no-nonsense chef Tina on FX’s culinary dramedy “The Bear,” and Jeff Hiller, the “Widow’s Bay” actor who also portrayed sweet and lovable best friend Joel on HBO’s tender comfort-watch “Somebody, Somewhere,” were on hand at the Television Academy’s Wolf Theatre to present the nominations. Academy chair Cris Abrego hosted the ceremony.
As anticipated, HBO’s emergency medical drama “The Pitt” was once again a hit with Emmy voters for its sophomore season. The premium cable network’s intergenerational comedy comeback story, “Hacks,” was also shown plenty of love for it’s fifth and final season. “The Bear,” which also recently concluded it’s five season run, also nabbed some nominations.
Freshman shows that received recognition included a trio of Apple TV offerings: the sci-fi infused post-apocalyptic drama “Pluribus,” the comedic supernatural horror “Widow’s Bay” and the dysfunctional family dramedy “Margo’s Got Money Troubles.”
The nominees for variety series and reality competition program were announced before the main nominations ceremony on NBC’s “Today” show.
The 78th Emmy Awards will be held on Sept. 14 at 5 p.m. at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles. Hosted by “Law & Order: SVU” star Mariska Hargitay, the live telecast will air on NBC and stream on Peacock. The Creative Arts Emmy Awards, which honors artistic and technical achievements as well as some performance categories, will be held on Sept. 5 and 6.
