HBO has traditionally had a lot of success at the Emmy Awards, and this year’s nominations suggest that the premium cable channel will have another big night this year. HBO’s The Last of Us was second among all shows with 24 nominations including Best Drama. It was second only to HBO’s Succession, which had 27 nominations. Succession and The Last of Us will face off against two other HBO series in the Best Drama category: House of the Dragon and The White Lotus. Yellowjackets, Better Call Saul, Andor, and The Crown round out the Best Drama nominees.

For Best Actor in a Drama, The Last of Us‘ Pedro Pascal will go up against Succession‘s Brian Cox, Kieran Culkin, and Jeremy Strong, Better Call Saul‘s Bob Odenkirk, and The Old Man‘s Jeff Bridges. The nominees for Best Actress in a Drama are Bella Ramsey for The Last of Us, Melanie Lynskey for Yellowjackets, Elisabeth Moss for The Handmaid’s Tale, Keri Russell for The Diplomat, Sharon Horgan for Bad Sisters, and Sarah Snook from Succession.

The race for Best Comedy will feature the following series: Abbott Elementary, Barry, The Bear, Jury Duty, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Only Murders in the Building, Ted Lasso, and Wednesday. Best Actress in a comedy is down to Jenna Ortega (Wednesday), Christina Applegate (Dead To Me), Natasha Lyonne (Poker Face), Quinta Brunson (Abbott Elementary), and Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel). Bill Hader was nominated for Best Actor in a Comedy for Barry, and he will go up against Jason Segel (Shrinking), Martin Short (Only Murders in the Building), Jason Sudeikis (Ted Lasso), and Jeremy Allen White (The Bear).
