The FX Network/Hulu original series Shōgun led all contenders for the 76th annual Emmy Awards Wednesday, capturing 25 nominations, including recognition for best drama series and best dramatic actor (Hiroyuki Sanada).

Shōgun was nearly matched in the comedy series category by another FX/Hulu show, The Bear, which garnered 23 nominations, which included not only a series nod but nominations for best comedic actor (Jeremy Allen White) and best actress (Ayo Edebiri). 

Hulu comedy series Only Murders in the Building captured 21 nominations, followed by HBO's True Detective: Night Country (19) and Netflix's The Crown (18).

The 2024 Primetime Emmy Awards will be broadcast live by ABC on Sept. 15 from the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, just months after the strike-delayed 2023 Emmy Awards event, which took place in January. 

FX ended up with an all-time high of 93 Emmy nominations, two better than HBO at 91.
