With the 2024 Oscars now in the rearview mirror, Hollywood’s focus turns to Emmy season. A number of TV awards shows are set to take place over the next few months, including the BAFTA TV Awards, the newly announced Gotham TV Awards, the Critics Choice Real TV Awards and, of course, the Primetime Emmys, which are returning to September after the strike-delayed 2023 Emmys was pushed to January 2024.

Oscar season is also already marking some key dates, including for 2025’s Academy Awards and Golden Globes.
