The 2022 Emmy Award nominations have been unveiled overnight, and Succession, the all-conquering drama about the interfamily struggles of some awful people, secured 25 nods. That includes stars Jeremy Strong and Brian Cox going head-to-head for best actor. The other top shows: Apple’s Ted Lasso and HBO’s The White Lotus earned 20 nominations each. And plenty of others earned double-digit nominations to put on your watching shortlist. Hacks (17), Only Murders in the Building (17), Euphoria (16), Barry (14), Dopesick (14), Severance (14), Squid Game (14), Ozark (13), Stranger Things (13), The Marvelous Mrs Maisel (12) and Pam & Tommy (10) are the ones to watch. Note: Squid Game is the first series to be produced outside of a Western country and not in English to score major-category nominations. The full list is here – the winners will be announced on 12 September.
