The Excitement of Emmy Season is Back!
Louisiana, get ready to pop the popcorn because the Emmy nominations for 2025 are here! The dazzling world of television is once again in the spotlight, and this year, Apple TV+ has truly outdone itself. Leading the pack is the mind-bending series “Severance”, which snagged a whopping 27 Emmy nominations. Not far behind, the comedy “The Studio” has also made a splash with 23 nominations, tying the record for the highest nominations ever in the comedy category.
Breaking Barriers in Entertainment
Last year, you might remember that “Shogun” stole the show with 25 nominations and a record-breaking 18 wins. This year, as the nominations rolled in, “Severance” blew everyone away, not only with its creativity but also its relatable themes of work-life balance—something many of us can relate to, especially those of us who have been juggling family and work throughout our lives.
A Closer Look at “Severance” and “The Studio”
“Severance” takes viewers on a thrilling ride within a dystopian workplace, where employees have their memories surgically divided between their work selves and their personal lives. The combination of a gripping narrative and brilliant performances from actors like Adam Scott and Britt Lower has resonated with many, creating buzz that led to a well-deserved Emmy haul.
In the comedy realm, “The Studio” has quickly established itself as a fan favorite. Its clever writing and depiction of Hollywood satire resonated well with audiences, leading it to outperform heavyweights like “Hacks” and “The Bear.” With a strong showing of 23 nominations, including three for actor and co-creator Seth Rogen, it’s clear that humor has found a new home on Apple TV+!
Personal Touches from the Stars
Seth Rogen, who has put his heart and creativity into “The Studio,” was over the moon with the recognition, stating, “My ego is in shock.” Rogen’s multi-nominations for acting, writing, and directing show how much talent is bubbling at the surface in today’s entertainment scene.
Why These Shows Matter
But why should we care about these Emmy nominations? Television isn’t just entertainment; it’s a reflection of our society. Shows like “Severance” tap into the unique struggles of modern life, resonating with our experiences at work and at home. They provide a space for reflection and laughter, which is so essential as we navigate through life, particularly as many of us in Louisiana value family, connection, and community.
Get Excited for the Ceremony!

These nominations not only shine a light on exceptional storytelling but also offer a chance for us to celebrate the artistry within our communities.
