Top price favourites
Despite the immense list of entrants, it is common for the favorites to take the trophy at every award. This year, the 2022 Emmy has three successful series with great odds.
With 25 nominations, the series “Succession” is the biggest highlight of the TV Oscar race, but other productions are hot on the heels of this phenomenon. Because the series “Ted Lasso” and “The White Lotus” each have 20 nominations.
In the Best Drama Series category, it’s to be expected that “Succession” will really take the lead, but we can’t deny that the phenomenon can surprise “Round 6” and take the statuette.
In the Best Actor and Actress in a Drama Series categories, favorites are Lee Jungjae who even won the SAG Awards for Round 6 and Bob Odenkirk, who was the series’ highlight of Better Call Saul’ .
After winning the Emmy for the first season of Euphoria, Zendaya emerges as a big favorite in the female category. But we can’t ignore the presence of Ozark’s Laura Linney. After all, the actress already has 4 Emmys under her belt. Another Emmy Award coming up in 2022?
