With the Primetime Emmy Awards less than two months away, nominations for 2024's biggest TV night have been announced.

Leading the pack in the comedy categories is FX's hit The Bear with 23 nominations, improving upon the 13 for its first season last year and setting a record for a comedy series, an achievement previously held by 30 Rock, which earned 22 nominations in 2009.

Newcomer Shogun, also from FX and streaming on Disney+ in the Middle East, scored the most nominations overall, with 25 in the drama categories. The show, based on the 1975 book by James Clavell, has proven to be the breakout hit of the year so far. Originally set to be a limited series, it was renewed for a second season in May after the first's outsize success.

In the limited series category, Netflix's Baby Reindeer, inspired by a true story from its creator and star Richard Gadd, had 11 nominations.

There were numerous surprises throughout, including several nominations for the acclaimed FX comedy series Reservation Dogs, which follows four indigenous teenagers in Oklahoma, which had been snubbed in previous years despite widespread acclaim and accolades from other awarding bodies. Netflix's Ripley earned several unexpected nominations as well.

Kristin Wiig's Palme Royale, meanwhile, was a surprise in the other direction, as it was tepidly received from critics and audiences when its first season was shown on Apple TV+.

Two awards darlings found themselves shut out – one being Kelsey Grammar, who returned for a reboot of his beloved series Frasier in 2023 and failed to receive a nomination despite winning five Emmys in years past. Actress Kate Winslet, meanwhile, did not receive a nomination for her HBO series The Regime, despite two previous Emmys which has helped her become one of the few actresses to earn three out of four achievements on the way to an EGOT. The series did score a nomination for Outstanding Drama Series overall.

HBO overall did not receive the Emmy love that it has in years past, with its acclaimed series The Curse, created by Nathan Fielder and Benny Safdie and starring Oscar-winner Emma Stone, also snubbed.

Fallout, based on the game series, also earned several nominations, proving once again that video game adaptations have officially come of age and are now a dominant force across television and film.

The Primetime Emmy Awards, set for September 15, will be the second ceremony that the awarding body will hold this year, after 2023's strikes in Hollywood delayed the ceremony until January.

Other must-tries

Tomato and walnut salad

A lesson in simple, seasonal eating. Wedges of tomato, chunks of cucumber, thinly sliced red onion, coriander or parsley leaves, and perhaps some fresh dill are drizzled with a crushed walnut and garlic dressing. Do consider yourself warned: if you eat this salad in Georgia during the summer months, the tomatoes will be so ripe and flavourful that every tomato you eat from that day forth will taste lacklustre in comparison.

Badrijani nigvzit

A delicious vegetarian snack or starter. It consists of thinly sliced, fried then cooled aubergine smothered with a thick and creamy walnut sauce and folded or rolled. Take note, even though it seems like you should be able to pick these morsels up with your hands, they’re not as durable as they look. A knife and fork is the way to go.

Pkhali

This healthy little dish (a nice antidote to the khachapuri) is usually made with steamed then chopped cabbage, spinach, beetroot or green beans, combined with walnuts, garlic and herbs to make a vegetable pâté or paste. The mix is then often formed into rounds, chilled in the fridge and topped with pomegranate seeds before being served.

The smuggler

Eldarir had arrived at JFK in January 2020 with three suitcases, containing goods he valued at $300, when he was directed to a search area.
Officers found 41 gold artefacts among the bags, including amulets from a funerary set which prepared the deceased for the afterlife.
Also found was a cartouche of a Ptolemaic king on a relief that was originally part of a royal building or temple. 
The largest single group of items found in Eldarir’s cases were 400 shabtis, or figurines.

Khouli conviction

Khouli smuggled items into the US by making false declarations to customs about the country of origin and value of the items.
According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, he provided “false provenances which stated that [two] Egyptian antiquities were part of a collection assembled by Khouli's father in Israel in the 1960s” when in fact “Khouli acquired the Egyptian antiquities from other dealers”.
He was sentenced to one year of probation, six months of home confinement and 200 hours of community service in 2012 after admitting buying and smuggling Egyptian antiquities, including coffins, funerary boats and limestone figures.

For sale

A number of other items said to come from the collection of Ezeldeen Taha Eldarir are currently or recently for sale.
Their provenance is described in near identical terms as the British Museum shabti: bought from Salahaddin Sirmali, "authenticated and appraised" by Hossen Rashed, then imported to the US in 1948.
