LOS ANGELES (AP) — “The Studio” seems to be a massive success, as the innies and outies of “Severance” might earn a place among the top-tier TV series, while Noah Wyle could finally have his well-deserved awards recognition as the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards approach.

Comedian Nate Bargatze is set to host for the first time on Sunday night when the event at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles airs on CBS.

Apple TV+ is expected to experience a standout Emmy year with “Severance” and “The Studio,” being the top contenders and most nominated shows vying for the prestigious awards.

How to watch and stream the Emmys and its red carpet

The Emmys air live on CBS at 8 p.m. Eastern and 5 p.m. Pacific time.

Paramount+ with Showtime subscribers may stream the show live. Standard Paramount+ subscribers can stream it Monday through Sept. 21.

There will be extensive live red carpet coverage by several outlets, with E! starting at 6 p.m. Eastern and “Entertainment Tonight” at 7 p.m. Eastern. People magazine and Entertainment Weekly will also offer a live red carpet stream on their social platforms. The Associated Press will provide a slightly delayed broadcast of celebrity arrivals and interviews via YouTube, beginning at 5 p.m. Eastern.

How the competition is shaping up at Sunday’s Emmys

“The Studio,” featuring co-creator Seth Rogen as the new leader of a movie studio, enters the evening with substantial enthusiasm for its debut season.

With 23 nominations, it has tied the record for a comedy series and already secured nine Emmys at the previous weekend’s Creative Arts ceremony. It would be unexpected if it doesn’t surpass the record of 11 Emmy wins for a comedy series in a single season.

It could win as many as 15, and Rogen himself could win four times, as an actor, a writer a director and an executive producer.

“The Bear” and “Hacks” which have dominated the comedy Emmys in recent years, are both again up for best comedy series but suddenly find themselves underdogs.

“Severance,” the Orwellian office drama about people who surgically split their psyches into workplace “innies” and home “outies,” was the top overall nominee with 27 nominations for its second season. It won six at the Creative Arts ceremony.

Along with best drama — which would be a first for Apple — it’s nominated in all four dramatic acting categories, with stars Adam Scott and Britt Lower each looking for their first Emmys.

Its top competition for best drama could be “The Pitt,” HBO’s acclaimed drama about one shift in the life of an emergency room.

Its star Noah Wyle could be both the sentimental favorite and the actual favorite for best actor. He was nominated five times without a win for playing a young doctor on “ER” in the 1990s, and now could finally take his trophy for what is in many ways a reprise of the role.

HBO’s prestige resort soap “The White Lotus” could also be in the mix for best drama its Thailand-set third season and has three nominees apiece in each of the drama supporting acting categories.

Older women could shine in actress categories

It could be an unprecedented night of Hollywood recognition for older women in an industry known for discarding female actors.

Oscar-winner Kathy Bates at 78 could become the oldest winner ever in the best actress in a drama category for playing the title role in CBS’ “Matlock.” She’d be the first woman from a network series to win the award in a decade.

And Jean Smart at 73 could extend her own record for oldest winner of best actress in a comedy if she wins for “Hacks” as she has for all three previous seasons of the show.

‘Adolescence’ and ‘The Penguin’ headline limited series

Netflix’s “Adolescence,” the story of a 13-year-old in Britain accused of a killing whose four episodes each take place in one continuous shot, may be the year’s most acclaimed show and is the consensus favorite for best limited series. Fifteen-year-old Owen Cooper could become the youngest Emmy winner in more than 40 years for playing the accused.

But HBO’s dark Batman universe show “The Penguin” got the biggest number of limited series nominations and won eight times at the Creative Arts ceremony.

Colin Farrell is nominated for lead actor playing the title character, and Cristin Milioti is nominated for actress for playing his nemesis. Both are considered strong contenders.

A send-off for Stephen Colbert

Not all of the CBS attention Sunday night may be positive.

Voters could give “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” the Emmy for best talk series for the first time as a sort of protest vote and tribute to its host, weeks after its cancellation by the network.

Many perceived the end of the show as punishment of Colbert and placation of President Donald Trump after Colbert was harshly critical of a legal settlement between the president and Paramount, which needed administration approval for a sale to Skydance Media. Executives called the decision strictly financial.
