- Mariska Hargitay is hosting the Emmy Awards as winners are announced live Monday evening.
- The Pitt leads all nominees with 25 nods, nearly doubling its 13 nominations from last year when it won best drama; Noah Wyle is nominated for lead actor.
- Hacks earned 24 nominations for its final season, breaking the all-time comedy nomination record previously held by "The Bear" and "The Studio" at 23 each.
- Jean Smart could win her fifth Emmy for "Hacks" and her eighth overall, which would tie the all-time record for most Emmy wins by an actress in history.
- Apple TV's Widow's Bay debuted strongly with 19 nominations including outstanding comedy, while its fellow new show Pluribus earned 18 nods including best drama and lead actress for Rhea Seehorn.
- Netflix's Beef led the limited or anthology category with 16 nominations, with Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan both up for lead acting honors.
Why it matters: HBO's combined 49 nominations across 'The Pitt' and 'Hacks' underscore the network's dominance heading into the ceremony, while Apple's 'Widow's Bay' and 'Pluribus' signal the streamer is now a genuine Emmy force — and a Smart win would reshape the historical record book for most acting Emmys by a woman.
