2025 Emmy Awards Winners Revealed [Updating Live]

"Competing for the Outstanding Drama Series award are a particularly grim collection of series, including end-of-the-world dramas The Last of Us, Paradise, and Andor (if you count what happened to Ghor). The shows based in our reality aren't much more upbeat, considering the politics of The Diplomat, the medical gore of The Pitt, the spycraft of Slow Horses, and the sociopaths of The White Lotus. At least this last season of Severance had a kinda happy ending?"

"In 2024, Netflix had a runaway awards hit on its hands with Baby Reindeer, and for the second year in a row it looks like it'll dominate the limited series categories again thanks to another British drama, the four-episode Adolescence. It does face some significant competition though, including the most recent season of past Emmy winner Black Mirror, the latest installment of Netflix's Monster series, HBO's dark The Batman spinoff The Penguin, and the acclaimed Michelle Williams-starring dramedy Dying for Sex."

Nominees span comedy, drama, and limited series categories with notable entries from networks and streaming platforms. Comedy contenders include returning favorites Abbott Elementary, The Bear, and Only Murders in the Building alongside first-time nominees Shrinking, The Studio, and Nobody Wants This, while FX's What We Do in the Shadows finishes its run. Drama nominees feature dark, often grim series such as The Last of Us, Paradise, Andor, The Diplomat, The Pitt, Slow Horses, The White Lotus, and Severance. Limited series competition highlights Netflix's Adolescence, Black Mirror, Monster, HBO's The Penguin, and Dying for Sex. Nate Bargatze will host the ceremony airing September 14 on CBS and Paramount+.
