Disney+’s Loki is following behind Succession with shows like Beef, Abbott Elementary, The Bear, Lessons In Chemistry, Reservation Dogs, and A Small Light. In addition to Best Drama Series, Loki has also landed nominations for Best Actor in a Drama Series for Tom Hiddleston and Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for Ke Huy Quan and Sophia Di Martino, respectively.
Another standout of 2023, Max’s The Last of Us, earned three nominations, including Best Drama Series, Best Actor, and Best Actress in a Drama Series for Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, respectively.
