Deadline’s Contenders Television: Los Angeles, a veritable smörgåsbord of awards-worthy TV for your Emmy voting perusal, kicks off its two-day run Saturday morning at the DGA Theater in Los Angeles. The livestream begins at 9:35 a.m. PT for both today and Sunday’s showcases.
With the Oscars barely in the rearview, it’s time to shift focus to the small screen in a big way. And when we say “big,” we mean a two-day extravaganza with 20 networks and streamers spotlighting 35 shows, ranging from drama and action to documentaries, comedies, unscripted and late-night.
Apple TV+ is bringing a whopping seven shows: Masters of the Air, Lessons in Chemistry, The Morning Show, Silo, Palm Royale, The New Look, Loot, and in co-production with Legendary, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. Prime Video has four with Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Fallout, Expats and Red, White & Royal Blue, and Showtime is bringing three with Fellow Travelers, The Curse and The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial. We’ll also have gems from Paramount+, CBS Studios, Hulu, Netflix, National Geographic, NBCUniversal, Sony Pictures Television, Lifetime, Masterpiece on PBS, AMC/AMC+, ABC, Marvel Studios/Disney+, Warner Bros Television and FX.
As you’ve come to expect, our stage will once again be packed with stars, including Rebecca Ferguson, Common and Tim Robbins (Silo), Kristen Wiig and Josh Lucas (Palm Royale), Kiefer Sutherland (The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial), Maya Erskine (Mr. & Mrs. Smith), Tom Hiddleston, Owen Wilson and Sophia Di Martino (Loki), Brie Larson, Lewis Pullman and Aja Naomi King (Lessons in Chemistry) and Lily Gladstone (Under the Bridge). It’s a veritable who’s-who of household names here.
How about Bill Pullman (Murdaugh Murders: The Movie), Andrea Riseborough
