The Emmys, when compared with the Oscars and Golden Globes, are the most predictable of the screen media awards. If you watch the Emmys long enough, you become familiar with the Television Academy's game.

It's as simple as this: They choose a handful of shows they like, and make them sweep their genre categories, sometimes multiple years in a row. Notable examples of this phenomenon include "Game of Thrones," "Succession," and "The Bear." How many times did "RuPaul's Drag Race" win Outstanding Reality Competition Program despite middling seasons? If a show was good once, the Academy will lazily default to awarding the show consistently instead of critically assessing the quality of individual seasons.

It’s a feat in itself that “The Amazing Race” has been on for nearly 24 years now. However, perhaps the most amazing aspect of the CBS reality competition show is actually just how much coordination goes into making a race around the world.

For Season 37, 14 teams of two traveled across nine countries, 18 cities and over 29,000 miles to the finish line, earning six Emmy nominations in the process: Picture Editing, Cinematography, Sound Mixing, Directing, Casting and Outstanding Reality Competition Program.

According to series co-creators and real-life couple Elise Doganieri and Bertram van Munster, it’s a life-changing experience for everyone involved that you cannot find anywhere else.

Israeli filmmaker Yariv Mozer, whose documentary We Will Dance Again recently won a News and Documentary Emmy, has signed a first-look deal with Tel Aviv–based studio Sipur. The company said the pact is meant to “bring his next chapter to life,” while Mozer called Sipur “the home where I’ve found the freedom and support to tell meaningful stories.” The agreement follows the global rollout of We Will Dance Again, which premiered on Paramount+ last September and recounts survivors’ experiences at the Nova music festival during the Oct. 7 attack.

The deal formalizes an ongoing relationship. Sipur previously partnered with Mozer on The Devil’s Confession: The Lost Eichmann Tapes, a docuseries built around rediscovered recordings of the Nazi official; U.S. distribution on that project ran through Amazon’s MGM Television, which also maintains a separate first-look arrangement with Sipur. The studio has positioned itself as a bridge to...

He was also responsible for “Ben-Gurion, Epilogue” in 2016 and “The Devil’s Confession: The Lost Eichmann Tapes” in 2023, with all three of his films winning Israeli Academy Awards.

“The Nova Music Festival was supposed to be a celebration of life, love and music for thousands of young people but became one of the first targets when Hamas launched the deadliest terror attack in Israel’s history. In ‘We Will Dance Again...

Disney is being sued by Marian Price for the way she’s depicted in the FX series “Say Nothing,” which suggests she’s guilty of an execution-style murder.

Price – a former Provisional Irish Republican Army volunteer – filed her defamation complaint in Dublin High Court on July 2. Her issue with the series revolves around the assertion that she was involved in the murder of Jean McConville – a Belfast mother of 10. The “Say Nothing” finale shows Price – played in the series by Hazel Doupe – killing McConville by shooting her in the back of the head.

In the filing, Price called for damages from Disney and Minim UK Productions and the removal of the execution scene. The lawsuit comes after Price – who now goes by Marian McGlinchey – threatened to sue in November 2024 shortly after the series premiered on FX.

McConville became one of the Disappeared – people who were abducted and killed by the...

Fans of opulent costumes, simmering social wars, and sharp dialogue, rejoice! HBO has officially renewed its Emmy-nominated original drama series for a highly anticipated The Gilded Age Season 4. From the brilliant mind of Julian Fellowes (creator of Downton Abbey), the series continues to captivate audiences with its stunning portrayal of 1880s New York City’s elite.

The decision comes as no surprise, given the show’s immense success. The greenlight for The Gilded Age Season 4 follows remarkable growth for Season 3, with total premiere-night viewing climbing for five consecutive weeks, boasting an impressive 20 percent increase compared to last season. Fan engagement is also soaring, with social chatter rising nearly 60 percent week over week.

Critics agree it’s better than ever, with both Variety and Entertainment Weekly proclaiming this season as “the best yet,” while Vulture called it a “must-watch.” In its two eligible seasons,...

Comedy actor and writer John Early has added director to his resume as he brings his first feature, Maddie’s Secret, to open the Toronto Film Festival Discovery sidebar for first-time and emerging filmmakers.

The film about Maddie, a Food Network content creator trying not to allow her dark past to pierce her perfect veneer, stars many of Early’s colleagues in the L.A. stand-up comedy scene, including Kate Berlant, Vanessa Bayer and Connor O’Malley.

In all, Discovery programmers have assembled 23 world premieres for their 25th edition. Also booked into the Toronto section is director Nadia Latif’s The Man in My Basement, which plays with the horror genre and stars Corey Hawkins as an African American man about to lose his family’s home, until a white businessman (Willem Dafoe) offers to rent his basement to clear his debts in a deal he chose not to refuse, but should have.

“Maddie’s Secret,” the directorial debut of comedian John Early, will open the Discovery program at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival. This section of the annual festival (celebrating its 50th year in 2025) premieres the first and second feature films from new directors. Every film in the section will have its world premiere at TIFF this September.

On the opening night, Early’s film “Maddie’s Secret” will screen, a satire of the current “content culture” that dominates the internet. The comedian has appeared in a number of films and television shows, though “Maddie’s Secret” marks his first movie in the director’s chair. Fellow comics Vanessa Bayer, Kate Berlant and Connor O’Malley also appear in the film.

Another entry in the section, “The Man in My Basement” stars Corey Hawkins and Willem Dafoe. Directed by Nadia Latif, the thriller adapts Walter Mosley’s novel of the same name. Latif...

“Saturday Night Live” ended Night 1 of the 76th Creative Arts Emmys with the most awards (six), including Outstanding Directing for a Variety Series, which went to Liz Patrick, who directed the episode hosted by Ryan Gosling.
