9 Big Observations About the Emmy Nominations (Plus Plenty of Small Ones)
Briefly

The 2025 Emmys ballot featured 123 categories with a focus on 19 acting categories. Several key trends were identified, such as the performance of series like Andor, which despite its nominations for Outstanding Drama Series and other categories, did not receive acting nominations for its lead cast. Conversely, Netflix maintained a substantial presence through limited series despite a limited number of overall nominations. This pattern reflects the changing dynamics and voting tendencies that impact recognition across various Emmy categories, not limited to acting alone.
Netflix's presence in limited series was undeniable, showcasing a variety of strong entries, which, despite fewer nominations, solidified its foothold across genres and formats.
The tendency for fans and critics alike to focus primarily on acting categories can overshadow the broader talents and contributions of writers, directors, and technical teams.
