Weekly Commentary (Updated Aug. 28, 2023): Emmy voting has officially closed. We won’t know the results until Jan. 2024. Such a long wait.

For over 115 days, Hollywood has remained shut down with the Writers and Screen Actors Guilds still on strike. Talks are ongoing, but the anger is palpable on the picket lines and on social media. That raises a question: with so many of these artists on strike, could fewer members turn out to vote for the Emmys, especially after the announcement that the ceremony wouldn’t happen until Jan. 2024?

There are over 20,000 members of the Television Academy. It’s safe to assume people in the industry are focused on the fight with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers and being able to secure a future in Hollywood, and not necessarily, giving out gold statuettes.

Nonetheless, there was a similar feeling during the nomination round of voting in June, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Still, in tight races in the acting categories, where “Succession,” “The White Lotus” and “The Last of Us” dominate, with other series bidding farewell after cancellations or moving on to new ventures (i.e., “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” and “A Black Lady Sketch Show”), there are many categories that are seemingly too close to call.

While “Ted Lasso” is the most nominated comedy, “Abbott Elementary,” “The Bear” and “Jury Duty” are pulling out all the stops to take it home.

The limited races have many 50/50 battles between two Netflix shows, “Beef” and “Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.” Still, television movies like “Prey” and “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story” have support that could upset in one (or several) key places.

The 75th Emmy Awards are scheduled to air on Monday, Jan. 15, 2024, at 8 p.m. ET/ 5 p.m. PT. The Creative Arts ceremony will occur on Saturday, Jan. 6, and Sunday, Jan. 7. An edited version will air on FXX on Saturday, Jan. 13, 2024, at 8 p.m. ET. All events will take place at the Peacock Theater at LA Live.
