LOS ANGELES — It’s Emmy Award season in Hollywood and Emmy voters have so many great shows to choose from.

In a new episode of On The Red Carpet, we’re taking a closer look at some of this year’s contenders for Outstanding Drama, Outstanding Comedy, Outstanding Limited Series and more.

FULL LIST: 2025 Emmy Award nominations

Among the nominees for Best Drama is the Star Wars thriller, “Andor,” on Disney+. The show’s second and final season earned 14 Emmy nods for the team led by show creator Tony Gilroy.

“To do a show on that scale about rebellion, revolution, oppression, fascism, authoritarianism, colonialism — all these things that I’ve been reading about and really interested in my whole life,” Gilroy told On The Red Carpet, “It almost felt like a responsibility. If we’re gonna do it, we should really go for it and we should talk about all of it.”

Another Best Drama contender is Hulu’s “Paradise.” The twisty, post-apocalyptic whodunit about the murder of the president also earned Emmy nods for stars James Marsden, Julianne Nicholson and Sterling K. Brown.

“After I read the pilot, I was like, I’m as curious to find out what happens in this world as I think our audience will be,” Brown said.

ABC’s “Abbott Elementary,” which has won four Emmys over the years, has six more nominations this year including Best Comedy and acting nods for Quinta Brunson, Janelle James and Sheryl Lee Ralph.

“We are very happy that we continue to be in the hearts and the minds of the people who vote, who nominate, who watch, that means a lot,” Ralph told On The Red Carpet.

Other top comedy contenders you’ll hear from in this new special include the stars of “The Bear,” “Only Murders in the Building,” “What We Do in the Shadows,” and “Nobody Wants This.”

Among the Outstanding Limited Series hopefuls is FX’s “Dying For Sex.” Stars Michelle Williams, Jenny Slate and Rob Delaney were all recognized with Emmy nods for mixing heart and humor in the true story of Molly Kochan and her best friend Nikki Boyer as they navigated Molly’s terminal diagnosis. The series was based on the popular podcast of the same name.
