NextImg:Pedro Pascal Gets Bleeped At The Emmys In Reference To Kieran Culkin
Associated Press

The 75th Emmy Awards are set to honor the best and brightest on our TVs at a star-studded ceremony airing Monday night on Fox.

The show was postponed last year amid the writers and actors strikes that brought Hollywood to a halt for several months. This year’s Emmys honor TV series and television movies that aired June 1, 2022, to May 31, 2023.

“Succession” is up for 27 nominations for its final season, with its lead and supporting cast members nabbing big nods for the night. HBO and Max could dominate the ceremony as “The Last of Us” and “The White Lotus” also received a bunch of nominations. Netflix could also have a big showing at the ceremony with “Beef,” “Dahmer ― Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” and “Wednesday” each gaining a handful of nominations.

ABC’s “Abbott Elementary” is the only scripted prime-time series to earn nods in the major categories.

“The Bear,” “Beef” and “Succession” dominated their categories at the Golden Globes on Jan. 7; the Emmys could be a night of more of the same.

“Black-ish” star Anthony Anderson is hosting the show for the first time.

Could there be any surprise upsets? Will Anderson somehow win over the crowd in his opening monologue? Who will give the most rousing speech of the night?

HuffPost reporters and editors will be covering the show live. Stay tuned here for more updates.

Pedro Pascal Gets Bleeped At The Emmys In Reference To Kieran Culkin

While presenting, “The Last of Us” star Pedro Pascal joked about his broken arm, which has become his red carpet accessory lately. He jokingly claimed “Succession” star Kieran Culkin injured him (using some bleeped-out words), which is a nod to Culkin jokingly saying: “Suck it, Pedro!” at last week’s Golden Globes. — Marina

I would like to know what was bleeped! I would like to laugh, too! — Candice

This also reminds me that I would watch the two of them in a comedy. — Marina

I would like to see Pedro Pascal in more comedy, period. And I say this as someone who loves his dramatic performances very much — Candice

Jennifer Coolidge Confirms What We All Feared Most About 'The White Lotus'

In her win for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series, Jennifer Coolidge confirms that she is actually dead in the popular HBO series “The White Lotus.” But then right in the middle of her speech, Anderson’s mom, who is on “your time is up, so wrap it up” duty tonight, stood up to get her to hurry off stage. It was kinda funny, but I hope it only happens with people like Jennifer Coolidge who won’t take it so seriously. ‘Cause that could get not-so-funny quite fast.

Here’s The First Of Several TV Anniversary Tributes Tonight

HBO’s “The Sopranos” recently turned 25, so Anthony Anderson just did a little nod to Tony Soprano in Dr. Melfi’s office.

And now, here’s Dr. Melfi herself, Lorraine Bracco, presenting with co-star Michael Imperioli.

I’m really looking forward to these tributes and reunions tonight. I think they could add some variety to the show. — Marina

I love the idea of TV anniversaries. “The Sopranos” has such a sprawling, phenomenal cast that to see only Bracco and Imperioli there is a tad disappointing, but I’m happy to see the celebration anyway! — Candice

Quinta Brunson Wins For 'Abbott Elementary'

Quinta! She wins Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. — Erin

“Probably the Carol Burnett of it all…” was so cute for Quinta Brunson to say in between fighting back tears. Love to see the generational love for a comedy icon from a comedy genius of her own time. And I love that an actually hilarious performance won best comedic actress. Loved everything about her win. — Candice

So thrilled for Quinta. At last year’s Emmys, one of the disappointments was not enough recognition for her and “Abbott,” so I’m glad we’re already off to a great start tonight. — Marina

Ayo Edebiri Wins For 'The Bear'

Ayo Edebiri wins Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. No surprise here, but I’m still so so happy for Ayo Edebiri. Her frazzled energy is so perfect on this show. — Erin

I love her nervous humor in her acceptance speeches. — Candice

Christina Applegate Brings Emmys Audience To Their Feet

I was holding back tears as Christina Applegate made her way to the microphone. She shared her multiple sclerosis diagnosis in 2021. Her jokes at the top literally made me scream. What an icon. I’ve loved her ever since she was Kelly Bundy on “Married … With Children.” — Erin

I love that they played some of the “Married…With Children” theme song. And I love that Anthony Anderson’s monologue had some of the classic TV theme songs, like “Good Times,” too. Bring back great theme songs!

And I love to see Christina Applegate get the ovation she deserves! — Candice

Ayo Edebiri Fixing Rhea Seehorn’s Makeup Is The Sweetest Little Red Carpet Moment

Look, sometimes, fake eyelashes and mascara, and, hell, any makeup snafu can make or break your look when you’re out on the town. But thank benevolent queen Ayo Edebiri (“The Bear”) for stepping in when Rhea Seehorn (“Better Call Saul’) needed a little cosmetic help on the red carpet.

Ronald From ‘Jury Duty’ Reveals Which Celebrity He’s Most Excited To Meet

One highlight from the red carpet pre-shows so far: “Jury Duty” star (or really, the hero of the show) Ronald Gladden said of all the big names tonight, he’s most looking forward to meeting “Barry” star and creator Bill Hader.

Also, I should note he is looking very spiffy in his green velvet suit. If you have not seen “Jury Duty” yet, you absolutely must. When it was nominated, my first thought was that I was so thrilled Ronald would get to go to the Emmys, and now he’s here! — Marina

Why This Emmys Will Be Like A Weird Time Capsule

I'd be shocked if "Succession," "The Bear" and "Beef" didn't dominate tonight, as they did at last week's Golden Globes and last night’s Critics Choice Awards. And I'm not mad about that. They were easily three of the best and buzziest shows of 2023, and each of them demonstrated different forms of bold, inventive and breathtakingly brilliant television.

One thing to keep in mind about these Emmys: They're kind of like a weird time capsule because they were voted on last summer. Although the Screen Actors Guild and Writers Guild of America strikes meant the ceremony was delayed, the voting for these awards still happened at their original time. The nominations were announced in July, and Emmy voters turned in their ballots after that.

Also, these nominated shows had to air between June 1, 2022, and May 31, 2023, so some of them aired a year and a half ago — which might as well have been five years ago, honestly. The most recent shows that are nominated tonight are series like “Succession,” whose glorious finale aired on Memorial Day weekend. That’s recent compared with some other nominees, but still, it was almost seven months ago!
And keep in mind that because of this timeline, some of the winners will not be winning for their most recent seasons. For instance, if and when "The Bear" wins, it will be for its first season, not its second, which aired in June 2023, just after the eligibility period (but a convenient strategy for creating some recency bias for voters). Confusing, right? — Marina

OMG, I forgot that this is for the first season of “The Bear.” You’re right, Marina, I know all night I’m going to be saying: What is time??? Another series that feels weird to still be talking about is “Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.” It was released in September 2022, which feels like eons ago. FWIW, Niecy Nash-Betts was incredible in the series. If “The Bear,” “Beef” and “Succession” dominate, I won’t be mad at all. I’d also love to see a win for “The Last of Us,” which really surprised me. Sometimes it can be hard for me to watch end-of-the-world shows or films (ahem, “Leave the World Behind”), but I thought “The Last of Us” was so well done. — Erin

I know, Erin! I think in any other year, “The Last of Us” would be really dominant in all of these awards. But obviously, that final season of “Succession” was nothing short of spectacular and unforgettable television, and the Roys deserve their victory lap. The good thing is we’re getting more of “The Last of Us,” so they’ll get their due eventually, I’m sure. — Marina

I feel like genre series like “The Last of Us” are rarely honored among award committees, so I’m not surprised to see “The Last of Us” not run away with trophies. It’s rightly been nominated for the performances, which I think are its strongest aspect, but not enough committees take this kind of fare seriously. — Candice

This Star Is One Of The Few People To Make A Red Carpet Statement About Gaza

Spotted on the red carpet: Khalid Abdalla, who plays Dodi Fayed on “The Crown,” has written “never again” on his palm and is holding it up in his red carpet photos. Abdalla, who has called for a cease-fire in Gaza, is among the few stars to use award season to draw attention to atrocities in Gaza. At last week's Golden Globes and last night's Critics Choice Awards, he wore a white dove pin, which he's also wearing tonight. — Marina
