2021 Emmy Nominations: See The Full List

July 13, 2021
On Tuesday (July 13), father-daughter duo Ron Cephas Jones and Jasmine Cephas Jones announced the nominees for the upcoming Emmy Awards. The 73rd Emmy Awards will take place after a year of the pandemic, which affected many television productions' TV schedules and, as a result, their eligibility to be nominated. Previous awards favorites, such as HBO's Succession and Netflix's Ozark, won't be eligible for Emmy nominations until 2023 due to delayed production.
Despite some powerhouse shows missing out on nominations this year, there are a ton of new shows up for awards, including Bridgerton, Mare of Easttown, and WandaVision. Here's the full list of nominees for the 2021 Emmy Awards:
