Everything to know about the 2023 Emmys, which were postponed to 2024

"Succession," "The Last of Us," and "The White Lotus" dominate the nominees for the awards ceremony, which was set to air last September before being postponed due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.

It's officially Emmys season.

The awards ceremony, which honors the very best in television each year, announced its star-studded list of nominees on July 12 — back before the actors' and writers' strikes caused the ceremony to be postponed from its original Sept. 18 date. Succession once again climbed its way to the top of the list with 27 total nominations. The HBO series is followed closely behind by Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey's post-apocalyptic drama The Last of Us, which scored 24 nominations, as well as Mike White's not-so-serene comedy-drama The White Lotus, which received 23 nods.

Other TV shows that dominated pop culture at the time — including Andor, Wednesday, Jury Duty, Dahmer — Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, and The Bear — also received their own nominations.
