Episode notes
Emmys Reflect Industry Churn
- The Emmy nominations reflect a shift away from recurring series with ongoing stories and character development.
- This trend creates a sense of unsustainable churn, where each year's awards focus primarily on new shows rather than established ones.
FX's 'Shogun' Strategy
- FX strategically renewed 'Shogun' and submitted it as an ongoing series, capitalizing on a less competitive Emmy landscape.
- This calculated move, based on the show's quality and success, paid off with numerous nominations.
The Bear's Genre Ambiguity
- 'The Bear' blurs genre lines, making its categorization as a comedy debatable.
- While its first season had comedic elements, its dramatic intensity resembles shows like 'Succession', raising questions about Emmy category placement.
