Regional Emmys 2021 Thread!

It’s Emmys time once again, and this year like last year, the handouts are being done virtually.

 

We start with the Northwest (my home region), which saw KGW repeating as Overall Excellence (while KTUU/KAUU (the latter formerly KYES) walks away empty handed on the Alaska side): https://static1.squarespace.com/static/589ccb1e15d5dbf1618a29c8/t/60c11905d5b9da134114c61c/1623267589878/Emmy+Award+Recipients_June+7.docx


And the Lower Great Lakes Emmys (covering Indiana and Northern Ohio (including Cleveland and Toledo)) were last night (6/12); WEWS cleaned up, taking News and Overall Excellence: https://nataslgl.org/nataswp/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/52nd-Winner-List.pdf


The Southeast Emmys are coming up this Saturday; WXIA as always lead the pack nominations-wise with WGCL not far behind (on the Spanish-language side, it’s MundoHispanico followed by Univision): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Hul2A5oMHKJqeMRNdCqT6-Vg-r2f2-lG/view

 

More of these yet to come, including New York, Los Angeles (aka the flagship; the Television Academy also hands out the Primetime awards), New England, etc., so feel free to contribute to this thread.

The Southeast Emmys were last night (6/19); WXIA took the most haul with 21 (Brendan Keefe now has 113 overall!) followed by WGCL with nine (including Morning Newscast). News Excellence and Daily Newscast belonged to WSB and in an upset, it was Alabama Public Television for Overall Excellence. WAGA managed to collect a couple, so it was not a complete shut-out (WYFF dominated the mid-markets).

 

On the Spanish-language front: Univision shared Overall and News Excellence with APT and WSB respectively (among many awards), Telemundo Atlanta co-won Daily Newscast with WSB, and MundoHispanico picked up several. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EnBKoDArSNA6J9vG8Tj_TuYgTiVY23Bu/view

Oh, and the San Francisco Emmys were a couple weeks ago as well; KNTV took home 16 awards among the English-language stations while KUVS dominated the Spanish-language field with 12 (both took Overall Excellence; there were a few wins for Hawaii as well). https://emmysf.tv/files/2021/06/Emmy-21-Recipient-Press-Release.pdf

This is indirectly turning into a list thread of which stations reimburse their employees the Emmy application fees. /s


No sarcasm necessary. One of the reasons you’ll see TEGNA stations atop many of the lists and advertising their copious nominations — because many of them can’t hang their hats on their ratings.

The 73rd Los Angeles Emmys were last night (7/24), and for the fifth year in a row...it was all KCET, still the most-honored PBS station in the country taking nine awards followed by KVEA (Telemundo) and Spectrum SportsNet both with six. KABC picked up four among the English-language commercial stations, while KTLA's two wins were for Morning and Evening Newscasts and KNBC…bupkis.

Same goes to Scripps.

This may be a Regional Emmys thread, but let’s not forget about the big guns:

 

As usual, PBS leads the News and Documentary Emmys with 52 nods followed by CNN (41) and CBS (30); HBO and Netflix got 13 apiece — the former narrowly reclaimed their lead in terms of Primetime nods — while newcomers Peacock and Disney+ received only one apiece (Prime Video, Hulu, and Apple TV+: zero).

 

In Spot or Breaking News on the regional side: WKYC, WPLG, WTVF (two), KMGH, KFOR, and WCCO; Investigative Report: WBBM, KNXV, KXAS, WXIA, and WVUE. As in last year, it’ll be a two-night affair with the News awards presented September 28 and the Documentaries to follow on the 29th.

Except for those already on YouTube, all of the other Regional Emmy ceremonies including New York (which saw WABC win the newly created News Excellence and Overall Excellence honors as well as Morning Newscast; WNBC took Evening Newscast) , Chicago/Midwest (WGN, WITI, WBBM, and WLS among the big winners), and Rocky Mountain among those handed out so far this year are on watch.theemmys.tv and the Emmys app; no need for me playing catch-up this time.
