The 2025 Emmy Awards are upon us! Last weekend, we got the Creative Arts Emmys, and this weekend, the Primetime Emmy Awards will finally determine which shows reign supreme from the past year. Well, more accurately, from June 1, 2024, until May 31, 2025, as that's when shows have to air to be eligible for nomination.
As part of my job, I watch dozens of shows every year, and by my count, I've watched 23 of the shows. That's not everything up for an Emmy Award this Sunday, but it's a fair amount of them. Of those 23 shows, there are seven that rise above the rest, and that I think everyone needs to watch at some point. Sure, you probably can't binge them all between now and the ceremony on Sunday night, but you might be able to finish one or two of them, and you can certainly check them all off your watchlist by the end of the year.
