The race permit
FX has the opportunity to make the most fun.
The reigning network in Outstanding drama series Race does not have a great challenger this time, as it has already interrupted “The Old Man” (who earned star Jeff Bridges an Emmy nomination for Season 1) and has not received the biggest ratings and reviews for New Ryan Murphy Show “Grotesquerie.” Maybe it’s time for FX to call NaySayers Bluff and Submit ‘Bear“Like a drama.
When you look at the more realistic opportunities, HBO has a large comeback year. For two Emmys then tied that record for most nominees in a serial category with “House of the Dragon”, “The Last of Us”, “The White Lotus” and “Success” fills four of the eight nomination sites. Although the latter series, which won, is over, HBO is still in strong standing now that “The Pitt” from its sister network Max has become one of the breakthrough shows in this current TV season. It can be argued that “House of the Dragon” is most vulnerable, but it had one of the first FYC events in the season at the TV Academy head office, and the theater was completely packed with eager participants.
That HBO/Max-dominance is all good for Warner Bros. Discovery, which can use a profit, but makes the Drama Awards Landscape not super-ideal for other companies. When he goes back under the Disney umbrella, which includes FX, ABC, Hulu, etc., the latter streaming service is the only one that has a previously outstanding drama series winner. In fact, “Handmaid’s Tale” First streaming series ever To win the category and did it for their premiere season. The question becomes, would the TV Academy members want to book their love for the show by nominating their last season? Or are they already more partial to “Paradise”, the latest Hulu hit that already had its FYC event where its Emmy-winning stars Sterling K. Brown and Julianne Nicholson really charmed participants in the huge room?
Then Netflix looks and looks at the usual suspects and has “Squid Game” and “Bridgeton”, both of which have been nominated in the category before, but still figure out which drama will put its full weight behind. For example, “The Diplomat” Season 2 went over even better with the audience who votes on Emmys (the addition of seven times the winner Allison Janney really helps), but is still ready to premiere “Forever” and “Department Q”, from Veteran-Showrunners Mara Brock Akil and Scott Frank, so it will be interesting to see how Netfi If it was nominated “3 body problems”, which did not have as passionate reaction as some of the other programs stated above, it is safe to count on Netflix to secure at least one nomination site.
Finally, the drama is the most penetrating culture right now “Severrance” on Apple TV+, which was nominated for outstanding drama series its first season and has only become exponentially more popular. It is the strongest of the remaining previously nominees back in the race that has not been mentioned so far, such as “Andor” (Disney+), “Slow Horses” (Apple TV+) and “Yellowjackets” (Showtime), and can even win this time.
When it comes to more lively new show, Peacock’s “The Day of the Jackal” appeared in a lot of Winter Awards -race, but there are two shows under the Paramount Paralyt, “Matlock” (CBS) and “Landman” (Paramount+), which seems to have a little more momentum.
Current challenger (in alphabetical order):
“Andor” (Disney+)
“The Day of the Jackal” (Peacock)
“Diplomat” (Netflix)
“Handmaid’s Tale” (Hulu)
“House of the Dragon” (HBO)
“The Last of US” (HBO)
“Landman” (Paramount+)
“Matlock” (CBS)
“Paradise” (Hulu)

Last year’s winner: “Shōgun”
Still eligible: No.
Hot streak: With “Shōgun” off the table, and FX that has no big drama in the race yet, 2025 Emmy’s more likely will start a new hot streak for a show and/or network rather than building up any previous successes.
Remarkably unjustified series: “The crown” (end); “Morning Show” (Season 4 is not eligible); “The Gilded Age” (Season 3 is not eligible); “Shōgun” (season 2 is not eligible); “3 body problems” (Season 2 is not eligible); “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” (Season 2 is not eligible); “Fallout” (Season 2 is not eligible).
