Tonight, the biggest names in Hollywood will come together at the Primetime Emmys to celebrate the best in television at TV's biggest night of the year.

Entering the night, HBO leads the pack with the three most-nominated shows of the evening in Succession, The Last of Us, and The White Lotus which landed a collective 74 nominations this year. These shows will face off against some of TV's top contenders from HBO's rival networks including Netflix's The Crown and The Diplomat, Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale, and Showtime's Yellowjacket.

Then there are the comedy and limited series races which will see the likes of Abbott Elementary, Ted Lasso, The Bear, Beef, and Daisy Jones & the Six facing off in hopes of walking away with television's top honor.

Fans are eager to see their favorite stars hitting the red carpet and are even more eager to see who will take home the night's top honors. While we have to wait until the evening to find out who exactly will be walking away victorious, the winners have likely already been revealed.

Award Shows once were full of surprises, but they've become more predictable in recent years which makes it easier than ever to predict who might walk away with an award on awards night. The winners at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards were nearly identical to the winners of the 2024 Golden Globes, which seems to suggest the same actors, actresses, and shows will take home the Emmys as well.
