The Hollywood Reporter's awards columnist Scott Feinberg offers his assessment of 28 categories.

This forecast reflects how The Hollywood Reporter's awards columnist Scott Feinberg believes the Emmy standings would look if voting ended today. These projections are formulated using a combination of personal impressions, historical considerations (how shows with similar pedigrees have resonated), precursor awards (some groups have historically correlated with the TV Academy more than others) and consultations with industry insiders (including voters, content creators, awards strategists and fellow members of the press).
