The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards will finally take place on Monday (January 15) after a four-month delay.

The annual celebration of the best television shows of the year takes place six months after the nominations are announced in July.

Although the ceremony was originally scheduled for September, it was postponed due to the strikes by Hollywood writers and actors that brought the industry to a standstill last year.

The series with the most nominations is Succession, whose fourth and final season aired on HBO last year. HBO counterparts The Last of Us and The White Lotus are also heavily nominated, while the final season of Ted Lasso on Apple TV+ has the most nominations in the comedy categories.

Here are the nominations and who will win (and should win) in the main categories.

Jenna Ortega could make history tonight

The 21-year-old Wednesday star already made history as the youngest Latina to receive an Emmy nomination for acting. So if she goes on to win the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series award, Ortega would become the youngest Latina actress Emmy winner ever.

She competes against Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs Maisel), Quinta Brunson (Abbott Elementary), Natasha Lyonne (Poker Face) and Christina Applegate (Dead to Me).

Did the Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards offer a sneak peek at tonight's winners?

So far, Succession and The Bear have completely dominated the TV competition at the Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards. Beef also topped several limited series categories.

The Emmys often come before the Golden Globes, but this year the order is reversed due to the postponed Emmy Awards. Much like the Golden Globes act as a predictor for the Oscars, I think the same will be the case with the Emmys.

Succession's brutal finale cements the Shakespearean tragedy as one of this century's greatest works of art
