The Emmy Awards are prestigious awards that recognise excellence in the television industry. They are presented annually in various categories, including drama, comedy, limited series, variety shows, and documentaries. The Emmy Awards are considered one of the most significant awards in television, akin to the Oscars for the film industry or the Grammy Awards for the music industry. In 2023, the Emmys entered its 75th year. The Emmys 2023 award show will premiere in India on 19th September on Lionsgate Play but the announcement of nominations has gotten fans all excited, everybody rooting for their favourite shows. We also place our bets on a few shows who will win big this year at the Emmys.
The Emmys
The Emmy Awards are divided into two main ceremonies: the Primetime Emmy Awards and the Daytime Emmy Awards. Winners of the Emmy Awards are selected by the members of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (ATAS) and the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS). These organisations consist of industry professionals, including actors, writers, directors, and producers.

The White Lotus, Ted Lasso, The Marvelous Mrs Maisel, The Bear, Beef, Dahmer, Wednesday, Barry and The Crown were among the other shows that received a good number of nominations at the Emmys.
While these shows have been absolutely brilliant, creating a separate fanbase with their extraordinary storyline, great work and fabulous direction, we have still picked our top 3 shows who we are rooting for at the Emmys and are hoping will win the maximum number of awards under various categories. Succession will definitely be the leader of the highest-win pack. We are hoping and predicting a good year for the Crown as well. Ted Lasso we think will be another series that will receive appreciation.
