"Sunday's 77th Primetime Emmy Awards arrive with clear favorites but few sure things. Will the acclaim for Adolescence carry it to limited series dominance, or will The Penguin complete a run that began with big nomination numbers and continued with a big performance at the Creative Arts Emmys? Will top overall nominee Severance reign like Succession and Shogun did before it? And can any comedy stop The Studio?"
"RANCILIO: Severance and The White Lotus were the most talked about shows of the year. But The White Lotus seems made more for the acting categories. I'm going to say Severance will take this trophy. DALTON: Severance felt like the peak of the prestige TV year when its episodes were rolling out. Yet as Emmys week arrives a Shogun-style sweep seems extremely unlikely. Still, it has felt destined for this award since halfway through its second season and despite the surges of The White Lotus and The Pitt, it's going to win here."
"DALTON: Noah Wyle's narrative is too powerful to deny. He gets five nominations without a win for ER, only to come back 30 years later and triumph for playing an older, warm-but-world-weary version of an emergency doctor on The Pitt. Fortunately, his actual performance was even more powerful than his personal story. His win will be well deserved on the merits."
Predictions for the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards identify clear favorites while acknowledging uncertain outcomes. Severance emerges as the leading contender for best drama, competing with The White Lotus and The Pitt. The White Lotus is portrayed as especially poised for acting-category wins, while Severance is described as destined for the top prize despite other surges. Noah Wyle is highlighted as a likely best-actor winner, framed as a comeback after earlier nominations. Other potential contenders include Adolescence, The Penguin, Andor, The Last of Us, and The Studio, with comedies facing stiff competition.
