LOS ANGELES — "Succession," to borrow a phrase from Kendall's eulogy for his father, Logan, is going to be a "terrible force" this Emmy season. Jennifer Coolidge is the only sure thing to defy it. People love her, adore her work and simply can't get enough of her digressive awards speeches. Encore!
But otherwise, that might be it. So get ready to hear Nicholas Britell's theme song played again and again Emmy night — and who doesn't want to bathe in that melancholic piano a few more times? — as we celebrate the end of one of the greatest shows in the history of television. It's going to be a night of good TV!
But we're getting ahead of ourselves. A number of series will be in play when nominations are announced next month. Let's sort through them in our Emmy drama power rankings. (Note: The total haul predictions include every category, not just the ones specifically noted here.)
