Television’s biggest night is nearly here.  

After all, the 2024 Emmy nominations have just been announced, and the anticipation will only continue to build until the ceremony airs live Sept. 15 from the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. 

Abbott Elementary’s Sheryl Lee Ralph and Veep alum Tony Hale announced every nominee for the small screen’s biggest honor in a livestream on July 17—and their list proves the 76th annual Emmy Awards could be the most competitive yet. 

Sofia Vergara made history with her nod for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology series for Griselda. While the 52-year-old already had four nominations under her belt for her performance in Modern Family, she is the first Latina to ever be nominated for her category. 

"Griselda was my first dramatic role ever, and it took us 15 years to bring her to life," the America's Got Talent host said in a statement. "I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who was a part of this series."

And in addition to thanking her collaborators including director Andres Baiz and her costar Alberto Guerra, she congratulated her fellow nominees Jodie Foster (True Detective), Brie Larson (Lessons in Chemistry), Juno Temple (Fargo) and Naomi Watts (Feud: Capote vs. The Swans).

"I never dreamed that after Modern Family I would be able to work on something as special as Griselda," Sofia continued. "I’m honored to be recognized alongside Jodie, Brie, Juno, and Naomi, incredible women who gave us incredible TV this year."

As for the frontrunners this year? The Bear set a record for the most nominations for a comedy series with 23 nods, beating out 30 Rock's 2009 feat of 22. Only Murders in the Building followed closely behind with 21 nods, while Abbott Elementary took eight total. 

As for dramas, Shogun leads with 25 nominations—the most nods overall. The Crown and The Gilded Age also recieved considerable honors with 18 nominations and six nominations, respectively. After the 2023 ceremony was somewhat swept by Succession and its cast—the show’s wins included Outstanding Drama Series, Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series, Outstanding Writing, and individual trophies for Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook and Matthew MacFayden—the ball could be in anyone’s court this year where drama series are concerned.

As for other notable nominations heading into the 2024 Emmys, Ayo Edebiri, who took home her first trophy at last year’s ceremony nabbed her second nod for The Bear this year. Meanwhile, 36 performers received their first nomination this year, including new Oscar winner Da'Vine Joy Randolph for her guest performance in Only Murders in the Building, Ryan Gosling for his April hosting gig on Saturday Night Live and Richard Gadd, who scored his first two for his buzzy semi-autobiographical horror thriller Baby Reindeer. 

But as the saying goes, it’s simply an honor just to be nominated. Keep reading to see how all the stars are celebrating the prestigious accolade.

"Wow," Sofia wrote in a statement. "Griselda was my first dramatic role ever, and it took us 15 years to bring her to life. I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who was a part of this series. I could have never done this without my director Andres Baiz, my costar Alberto Guerra, Eric Newman and the full creative team, my partner and producer Luis Balaguer, Ted Sarandos, Bela Bajaria, and their team at Netflix, and all the amazing cast and crew."

And the America's Got Talent judge also nodded to her Emmy-winning roots. 

"I never dreamed that after Modern Family I would be able to work on something as special as Griselda," she added. "I’m honored to be recognized alongside Jodie, Brie, Juno, and Naomi, incredible women who gave us incredible TV this year. Thank you to the Television Academy for this incredible honor!”

"It’s a real honour for me and the whole creative team for BECKHAM to be recognised by the TV Academy," the soccer star wrote. "Making this series was such a personal journey, a love letter to football and my family. It has been overwhelming for me and Victoria that we have had such a warm and positive response to the series. I’m so grateful to the incredible team led by Fisher Stevens and also to all those people from my life and career who took part and who have played such an important role in my story.”

Upon being informed she'd nabbed her second Emmy nomination for her Abbott Elementary performance by Television Academy Chair Cris Abrego during the July 17 nominations livestream, Sheryl exclaimed, "That never gets old!"

"90 percent sure my pottery studio thinks someone I love just died because I yelled WHAT and then started sobbing when i got the text that GIRLS5EVA WAS NOMINATED FOR 2 EMMY AWARD," the star wrote in an emotional Instagram post. "CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR FEARLESS LEADER @scardinoandsons AND ALL OF OUR WRITERS FOR THEIR NOMINATION FOR WRITING AND @sarabareilles FOR HER NOMINATION FOR BEST SONG FOR HER GENIUS SONG "MEDIUM TIME."

"It has been an absolute joy to be able to bring this moment in history to life alongside Netflix. A big thank you and congratulations to all of the artists and participants for making “We Are The World” happen, and thank you to the Television Academy for recognizing our documentary.”

Casey McQuiston wrote a joyful, wonderful book that captured the imagination of readers everywhere. We were honored to be trusted to turn it into a film and are so grateful to Matthew Lopez and our cast and crew, especially Nick Galitzine and Taylor Zakhar Perez, for this wonderful ride.
