Father-daughter Emmy winners Ron and Jasmine Cephas Jones announced the Television Academy's nominees.
It's time to honor the TV that kept us sane this past year: The 2021 Emmy nominees represent the best of what we watched, streamed, binged and then re-watched while stuck inside, AKA Outstanding Pandemic Viewing.
On Tuesday, the Television Academy and father-daughter Emmy winners Ron Cephas Jones and Jasmine Cephas Jones unveiled nominations for the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards.
The Crown and The Mandalorian are the year's most nominated series, with 24 total nominations apiece, followed by WandaVision with 21 nominations, The Handmaid's Tale and Saturday Night Live with 20 nominations and Ted Lasso with 20 nominations. (Of course, there were also a number of notable snubs and surprises.)
Winners will be announced during the Cedric the Entertainer-hosted Emmy Awards on Sunday, Sept. 19, airing live at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT on CBS and Paramount+. (This year's ceremony will be hazmat suit free.)
