LIST: 2025 Emmy nominations in key categories
Apple TV+'s dark sci-fi office drama Severance led the contenders for the 2025 Emmy Awards, television's version of the Oscars, with a whopping 27 nominations.
The Penguin, HBO Max's Batman villain spinoff series, came in second with 24.
Two satires—HBO Max's skewering of the rich, The White Lotus, and Apple's new Hollywood cringe fest, The Studio—tied for third with 23 nominations each.
In the comedy categories, behind The Studio were two past winners: Hacks at 14 and The Bear at 13.
