Emmy nominations 2025: List of nominees
"Severance," Apple TV+'s sci-fi workplace dark comedy, was the top nominee, earning 27 total nominations. HBO's gritty comic book gangster origin story, "The Penguin," followed with 24 total noms. The swanky luxury drama "The White Lotus" and the sharp Hollywood satire "The Studio," also from HBO and Apple TV+, respectively, followed with 23 nominations apiece.
With its 23 nods, "The Studio" tied the record for most nominations in a year by a comedy series set by "The Bear" last year.
"Adolescence" breakout Owen Cooper, 15, became the youngest actor ever nominated for supporting actor in a limited/anthology series or movie. He is among the 33 first-time acting nominees this year along with Harrison Ford ("Shrinking"); Chloë Sevigny ("Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story"); "Nobody Wants This" co-stars Kristen Bell and Adam Brody; Jake Gyllenhaal and Ruth Negga from "Presumed Innocent"; Jenny Slate ("Dying for Sex"); and "The Penguin" actors Colin Farrell and Cristin Milioti.
Harvey Guillén, who played the sole human roommate in a vampire household on FX's "What We Do in the Shadows" for six seasons, and Netflix's "Running Point" star and real-life knowledgeable sports fan Brenda Song made the announcement live from the Television Academy's Wolf Theatre and brought their comedic flair.
"In an year when the industry has continued to evolve creatively, structurally and economically, one thing remains clear," said academy chair Cris Abrego to kick off the announcement show. "Powerful performances and compelling stories still cut through."
The 77th Emmy Awards will be held on Sept. 14 at 8 p.m. ET. The live telecast, hosted by comedian Nate Bargatze, will air on CBS and stream on Paramount+. The Creative Arts Emmy Awards, which honors the artistic and technical achievements as well as some performance categories, will be held on Sept. 6 and 7, then edited to air Sept. 13 on FXX.

‘South Park' Lives: Paramount Inks New Deal With Creators, Library Moving to Paramount+
South Park has been saved. Just hours before the Comedy Central show's season 27 premiere on July 23 (a premiere that had already been pushed back due to the uncertainty of a new deal), Paramount and Park County, the venture creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker run and which produces the show, have reached a new deal. More from The Hollywood Reporter Skydance Tells FCC It Will Create CBS News Ombudsman, Eliminate DEI at Paramount Trump's Side Deal With "New Owners" of Paramount May Hint at FCC Concessions Paramount Execs Tell Staff That Africa Offices and Channels May Close Amid Strategy Review (Exclusive) The agreement means that South Park's new season will debut as scheduled. The deal runs for five years and encompasses 50 new episodes of the show to debut on Comedy Central. In addition, the companies have inked an expansive new streaming partnership (via their joint venture South Park Digital Studios) that will bring South Park's library to Paramount+ in both the United States, where HBO Max has held the rights for years, and globally. New episodes will also stream on Paramount+ in the U.S. the day after they air on Comedy Central under the pact. A source pegged the value of the deal at about $1.5 billion. 'Trey and I and the whole South Park crew are grateful for this extension and this deal. We want to thank [Paramount co-CEO and president of Showtime/MTV Entertainment] Chris McCarthy and [COO] Keyes Hill-Edgar for years of great partnership and are looking forward to continuing to make South Park for the next five years,' said Stone. Added Parker, 'We are grateful for this opportunity and deeply honored by the trust placed in us. This is about more than a contract — it's about our commitment to this organization, our teammates, and our fans. We're focused on building something special and doing whatever it takes to bring championships to this city.' Streaming deals for the show expired on June 23, forcing an extension of a domestic deal with Warner Bros. Discovery to keep it on HBO Max for now. Earlier this month, Paramount+'s international license to stream episodes of the long-running animated series expired, which led to the streamer pulling the series from its global service. Park County has an unusual arrangement with Paramount, with the production company receiving about 50 percent of all streaming revenue, even as Paramount retains ownership of the show. 'Matt and Trey are singular, creative forces whose fearless humor and boundary pushing storytelling have made South Park one of the most beloved and enduring series ever — more popular today than at any point in its history, and one of the most valuable TV franchises in the world,' said McCarthy. 'They are exceptional talents and trusted partners. We're thrilled that Comedy Central and now Paramount+ globally will be the home to South Park for years to come and our thanks to the Skydance team for their vital partnership in making this happen.' The deal also comes after a heated but quiet behind-the-scenes legal dispute between Park County, Paramount Global, and Skydance, which is set to assume control of Paramount in the coming weeks. It was a dispute that had some sources concerned about the show's future. Parker and Stone were seeking an extension of their current first-look deal with the company, which a source pegged at being worth about $150 million per year during its six-year term. That agreement had a couple of years left, but the creators were seeking an early extension that could coincide with a streaming agreement. However, Skydance leadership, including CEO David Ellison and incoming president Jeff Shell, had approval rights on any deals that met a certain threshold, and the Park County deal fit that bill. Earlier this month, The Hollywood Reporter learned that Park County believed it had struck a basic framework with Paramount on a new 10-year, $3 billion deal, roughly three times the value of their last agreement. Skydance, however, was reluctant to sign off a deal that long, fearing how the streaming market could change by then. At $1.5 billion, the new deal would be worth about $300 million per year, albeit with the shorter time frame that Skydance had been pushing for. While $1.5 billion is an extraordinarily high number for what amounts to 50 episodes of TV, a source said that the overall deal also functioned as an advance on the streaming revenue, helping to explain the cost. When the talks were most heated, Parker and Stone brought on Bryan Freedman, a prominent lawyer and bulldog negotiator known for aggressive legal maneuvering, underscoring how the dispute had escalated. 'This merger is a shitshow and it's fucking up South Park. We are at the studio working on new episodes and we hope the fans get to see them somehow,'' Parker and Stone wrote in a social media post on July 2, after Comedy Central announced that the season 27 premiere had been pushed by a few weeks. In a precursor to the legal dispute, Park County threatened legal action against Shell for allegedly urging Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery to modify certain terms of their offers for the show in a 'manner calculated to benefit Paramount at the expense' of the company. It pointed to Shell urging WBD to give Paramount+ an exclusive 12-month window for new episodes of the show and to shorten the term of the deal from 10 to five years, which could worsen the studio's bid for the series.

Alien: Earth is one of my five must-see TV shows in August
August is, famously, when the summer movie season starts to draw to a close. Thankfully, TV doesn't have those same lull periods, meaning that there's plenty to look forward to on the small screen in the month of August. I'm particularly excited about Alien: Earth, which will be the first TV show in the Alien franchise and also the first thing in this universe to be set on Earth. Alien: Earth is far from the only thing to be excited about in August, though. Here are five shows I'm particularly looking forward to watching. Chief of War (August 1) This Apple TV+ original is another partnership between Jason Momoa and the studio. This time, Momoa plays a Hawaiian war chief tasked with uniting the tribes of the disparate islands so that they can face off with the colonizers who are threatening their way of life. Recommended Videos The show's cast is composed almost entirely of native Hawaiian actors, and it could be a fascinating look at a part of America that many Americans don't spend much time thinking about. Hopefully, it's a little bit better than See. Chief of War will be available on Apple TV+. Wednesday season 2, Part 1 (August 6) Wednesday was a phenomenon following its first season, and this follow-up is will try to recapture that same enthusiasm. The show, a twist on The Addams Family, primarily follows their daughter, Wednesday, as she is shipped off to boarding school and must make her way through regular teenage life. The show made a star out of Jenna Ortega, and season 2 promises to be even bigger and more star-studded than the first installment. Whether that means it will be better is anyone's guess. Wednesday will be available on Netflix. Alien: Earth (August 12) One of the great mysteries this summer is Alien: Earth, which brings the xenomorph to Earth for the very first time. Plus, the Alien franchise makes its debut on television. While it seems impossible to live up to the best of what this franchise can offer, Alien: Earth will follow a young woman who joins up with a group of tactical soldiers to investigate the crash of a space vessel onto Earth. What they find (which is probably an alien) is left a mystery, but Alien: Earth could expand on the world of the Alien movies in fascinating ways, even if it's not quite as good as that first movie. Alien: Earth will be available on Hulu. Peacemaker season 2 (August 21) Following the success of Supermanin theaters, interest in the new DCU has never been higher. Peacemaker season 2 may reveal more about where this universe is headed, but just as importantly, it will hopefully be an excellent continuation of the show's remarkable first season. The brilliance of John Cena's central performance is worth plenty of praise, but James Gunn managed to find exactly the right supporting cast to put around him. Here's hoping the lore of the DCU doesn't overwhelm a character that's at his best when he's ignoring the rules altogether. Peacemaker will be available on HBO Max. Eyes of Wakanda (August 27) While the DCU might emerge as a real threat to Marvel's supremacy, Eyes of Wakanda could be proof that Marvel still has a few cards left to play. This animated series seems like it will be largely disconnected from the rest of the MCU, as it tells the story of Wakandan warriors who travel around the world to recover vibranium artifacts. The animation looks beautiful, and Ryan Coogler's involvement is a good sign that this show will be a reflection of the Wakanda we've fallen in love with on the big screen. Eyes of Wakanda will be available on Disney+.

Billy Joel speaks out about rumors he's had DUIs in new documentary
The Piano Man is defending his reputation. In the newly released second part of the HBO documentary 'Billy Joel: And So It Goes,' the 76-year-old music icon responded to the longstanding rumor that he's gotten multiple DUIs over the years. 'You know, along with fame comes a lot of gossip, rumors. I didn't like the tabloid kind of press,' Joel said in the doc. 'For example, there's this rumor that I have all these DUIs. That never happened, but people keep repeating the myth: 'Oh, he's got so many DUIs.'' Advertisement 6 Billy Joel performs at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas in Nov. 2024. Getty Images 'I never had a DUI,' he added, 'so f–k you.' Joel was first accused of drinking behind the wheel when he crashed a Mercedes-Benz in East Hampton, New York in June 2002. Less than a year later, he drove into a tree in Sag Harbor and had to be airlifted to a hospital. Advertisement 6 Billy Joel at Madison Square Garden in NYC in June 2023. Getty Images The 'Uptown Girl' singer suffered another accident in April 2004 when he crashed into a house in Long Island. The rumors about Joel led to 'Saturday Night Live' referencing his alleged drunk driving in a 2004 sketch that featured Horatio Sanz, who played the singer, chugging a bottle of pineapple schnapps and crashing into several walls and mailboxes while driving a group of girls to a party. However, Joel has repeatedly denied that he's ever gotten a DUI. Advertisement 6 Billy Joel performs in Melbourne, Australia in Dec. 2022. WireImage 'I had gone through a breakup and was really broken up about it, and I decided, 'I'm drinking too much. I should go to rehab,'' Joel told The New York Times Magazine in 2013. 'But people made a connection, like, 'Oh, he went there because he was in a car accident from drinking.' No.' 'I never had a DUI in my life,' he stated. 'That's another fallacy. Look at the police records.' 6 Billy Joel on Father's Day 2025. billyjoel/Instagram Advertisement In his documentary, Joel called the press 'mean' and admitted that he doesn't always enjoy being in the spotlight. 'Having that much attention paid to you is not easy,' he said. In 2005, Joel entered rehab following what he called an 'ultimatum' from his then-wife, Katie Lee. He entered the Betty Ford Center for a stint, then temporarily stopped touring once his time at the center was over. 6 Billy Joel attends MSG Entertainment and Billy Joel special franchise announcement at Chase Square at Madison Square Garden. Getty Images The 'Honesty' singer has been sober for several years now. 'I stopped [drinking] a couple of years ago,' Joel told the Los Angeles Times in 2023. 'It wasn't a big AA kick. I just got to a point where I'd had enough.' 6 Billy Joel at SiriusXM Studios in Los Angeles in Oct. 2024. Getty Images for SiriusXM Advertisement 'I didn't enjoy being completely inebriated, and it probably created more problems in my life than I needed,' he added. Both parts of 'Billy Joel: And So It Goes' are now streaming on HBO Max.
