Chloe Williams serves as B+C’s Entertainment Editor and resident Taylor Swift expert. Whether she’s writing a movie review or interviewing the stars of the latest hit show, Chloe loves exploring why stories inspire us. You can see her work published in BuzzFeed, Coastal Review, and North Beach Sun. When she’s not writing, Chloe’s probably watching a Marvel movie with a cherry coke or texting her sister about the latest celebrity news.

With phenomenal television shows like The Last of Us and Only Murders in the Building, and outstanding work both behind the scenes *and* in front of the camera, 2023 might just be one of the toughest Emmyscompetitions yet – but we'll have to wait to see the winners, because the awards ceremony has officially been delayed.
The ongoing SAG-AFTRA writer and actor strikes have already put pressure on upcoming TV show and movie releases, halting almost all productions and promotions. According to Variety, the Emmys are feeling the tension, too. Originally spot for September 18, 2023, the awards show has officially been pushed to January 15, 2024.
Nominations for the Emmys awards dropped around the same time strikes began. Though upsetting, this unpredictable waiting period gives viewers and fans like us the opportunity to get those Emmys predictions set in stone. While there are some serious snubs (how did Elizabeth Olsen not get nominated?!), a lot of our favorites did make the list (Jenna Ortega! Keke Palmer!). Keep reading to see if your go-to show or actor got an Emmys nod.
When are the 2023 Emmys?
The 2023 Emmys won't actually take place in 2023. They've been pushed to Martin Luther King, Jr. Day on January 15, 2024, which is also one week after the Golden Globes. You'll be able to tune in at 8 pm EST/ 5 pm PST.
What is the difference between the Oscars, the Grammys, the Tonys, and the Emmys?
All four shows give out awards to different kinds of performers. The Emmys focus on television, while the Oscars are all about film, the Grammys honor music, and the Tonys focus on theatre.
What is the next award show 2023?
The Venice Film Festival will be the next award ceremony for the entertainment industry, but the next televised awards show will be MTV's VMA Awards on September 12.
