The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences didn't let the looming threat of a Screen Actors Guild strike get in the way of announcing the nominees for the 2023 Emmy Awards. HBO seems to be living it large with this year's nominations. The top two most nominated shows, Succession and The Last of Us, are products of HBO.
Succession leads the charge with 27 nominations but The Last of Us isn't far behind with 24 different nominations. While I'm sure Succession is great, that show doesn't exactly fall under the Total Gaming Network umbrella, so the focus here is solely on those nominations for The Last of Us. If you would like to see all of the categories and all of the nominees, simply head on over to Emmys.com.
Below are all of the categories for which The Last of Us has been nominated for. Included alongside each category is either the episode for which it was nominated or the actor that was nominated. The 2023 Emmy Awards will take place on Monday, September 18 at 8PM (ET).
