Emmys 2020: List of Nominations

Nominations for the 72nd annual Emmy Awards were unveiled Tuesday, and Netflix walked away with a massive 160 nods — the most of any network or streamer.



Netflix’s “Ozark” and HBO’s “Succession” led drama categories with 18 nominations each, while Amazon’s “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” dominated the comedy side with 20 nods. However, HBO’s “Watchmen” landed the most nominations of any series, securing 26 nods for the Regina King-led show.
