- The Pitt leads the 78th Emmy Awards with 25 nominations, the top count of any series this year.
- Hacks Season 5 earned 24 nominations, making it the most nominated final season of a comedy and the most nominated season of a comedy in Emmy history.
- Apple TV placed two shows in the top tier — "Window's Bay" with 19 nominations and "Pluribus" with 18 — behind HBO Max's leading pair.
- NBC's "Saturday Night Live" leads the broadcast networks with 11 nominations.
- Noah Wyle, Sterling K. Brown, Gary Oldman, Mark Ruffalo, and Rufus Sewell are nominated for best actor in a drama series, alongside best actress nominees including Carrie Coon, Keri Russell, Rhea Seehorn, and Zendaya.
- "The Pitt" swept the supporting drama categories with three supporting actor nods (Patrick Ball, Shawn Hatosy, Gerran Howell) and four supporting actress nods (Taylor Deardon, Fiona Dourif, Katherine LaNasa, Sepideh Moafi) for its Season 2 cast.
Why it matters: Apple TV's two-show haul of 37 combined nominations places the streamer just behind HBO Max's dominant 49, while broadcast leader NBC's "Saturday Night Live" trails at 11 — illustrating how streaming platforms now control the prestige TV race that broadcast networks once owned, with "The Pitt" alone taking seven supporting-category slots in a single night.
