Searing teen murder saga “Adolescence” and Hollywood satire “The Studio” are expected to be among the big winners at Sunday’s Emmy Awards, television’s equivalent of the Oscars.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Apple TV+’s sci-fi office thriller “Severance” and HBO medical procedural “The Pitt” will vie for the highly coveted best drama series prize.<\/p>\n
Pundits say that race is too close to call at the ceremony, which kicks off at 5:00 pm in Los Angeles (0000 GMT Monday).<\/p>\n
Arguably this year’s most talked-about TV hit, “Adolescence” is the clear favorite to win best limited series — awarded to shows that end after one season.<\/p>\n
Earning a whopping 140 million views in its first three months on Netflix, it follows a 13-year-old schoolboy arrested on suspicion of murdering a female classmate with a knife.<\/p>\n
It is “inconceivable to see a way in which\u00a0‘Adolescence’ loses come Emmy night,” wrote Vanity Fair’s John Ross.<\/p>\n
“Cultural zeitgeist trumps all at the Emmys.”<\/p>\n
Each of its four episodes are shot in a stunning single take, and together form a timely and tragic examination of the impact of toxic masculinity on young boys.<\/p>\n
The show drew rave reviews and countless water-cooler discussions. A limited series win would be the second in a row for dark British Netflix shows, after last year’s “Baby Reindeer.”<\/p>\n
The best comedy series prize has a similarly prohibitive favorite — Apple’s “The Studio.”<\/p>\n
Starring its co-creator Seth Rogen as floundering movie executive Matt Remick, “The Studio” is both a love letter to Hollywood, and a searing send-up of the industry’s many insecurities, hypocrisies and moral failings.<\/p>\n
Its 23 nominations are the joint-most ever by a comedy in a single year, and it already won nine statuettes last weekend at the ceremony for the more technical Emmy categories.<\/p>\n
In a meta twist, a beloved episode of “The Studio” takes place during a Hollywood awards show, with a running gag in which nearly every winner thanks Remick’s underling Sal Saperstein (Ike Barinholtz) rather than the boss himself.<\/p>\n
Expect plenty of callbacks to that moment on Sunday.<\/p>\n
– Dramatic finish? –<\/p>\n
The ceremony’s most intriguing moment seems destined to be the announcement of the best drama series award — typically the final prize of the night.<\/p>\n
“Severance” — a psychological drama set largely in the near-future offices of a shadowy corporation — has the most nominations of any show this year with 27.<\/p>\n
The premise: the “innie” employees of Lumon Industries quite literally leave their outside lives, memories and personalities at the door, thanks to a dystopian new mind-splitting technology.<\/p>\n
Starring Adam Scott, the show’s acclaimed first season in 2022 missed out to “Succession” for Emmys glory, but this year’s sophomore run was the presumed drama frontrunner.<\/p>\n
Then along came “The Pitt,” a quietly released medical drama that was originally conceived as an “ER” spinoff, and emulates much of that show’s DNA.<\/p>\n
All 15 episodes are set consecutively during the same unbearably stressful shift at an inner city Pittsburgh hospital.<\/p>\n
Tackling everything from abortion rights to mass shootings, it has become a word-of-mouth sensation.<\/p>\n
“ER” veteran Noah Wyle is tipped to pip Scott for the best drama actor prize for his performance as the emergency room’s haunted leader.<\/p>\n
–\u00a0‘Celebrating television’ –<\/p>\n
In these divisive political times, the Television Academy — which hands out the Emmys — is determined to steer clear of controversy.<\/p>\n
“We’re definitely just celebrating television,” ceremony producer Jesse Collins told Deadline on Thursday.<\/p>\n
“Nobody’s trying to veer off that course. We want everybody to just have fun for three hours.”<\/p>\n
Host Nate Bargatze has even devised a novel way to keep things succinct.<\/p>\n
The comedian has pledged to donate $100,000 of his own money to the Boys & Girls Clubs of America.<\/p>\n
The catch? He will deduct $1,000 for every second that a winner’s acceptance speech exceeds the allotted 45 seconds.<\/p>\n
