2026 Emmy Awards Winners Revealed [Updating Live]

The 2026 Emmy Awards winners were announced on Monday, September 14th, with Mariska Hargitay as the host. The nominees were a strong representation of the current television landscape, with many streaming shows, such as The Pitt, Hacks, Paradise, The Bear, The Diplomat, and Shrinking, receiving multiple nominations. Notable new entries included Apple TV series Pluribus and Widow's Bay.

Abbott Elementary was the only broadcast show nominated for any major awards, highlighting the industry's evolution over the past decade. The Pitt was considered the frontrunner for drama series, while the comedy race was more competitive, featuring Hacks against Widow's Bay. Rhea Seehorn's performance in Pluribus earned her a nomination for Lead Actress in a Drama, alongside Zendaya for Euphoria's final season.

Variety Series saw a change in the automatic winner, with Saturday Night Live and two other shows vying for the title. The Limited Series category narrowed down to Beef, Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette, and DTF St. Louis, with DTF emerging as the frontrunner.
