The 78th Emmy Awards are underway, with several shows vying for top honors. HBO Max's "The Pitt" is among the contenders, having won Best Drama Series last year. Its star, Noah Wyle, took home Best Actor, while Katherine LaNasa won Best Supporting Actress. The series is expected to compete in these categories again and may add to its Emmy collection.

Further details about the awards and nominations are available. "The Pitt" has received a total of 25 Emmy nominations, with seven in the supporting acting categories. Another show, "Hacks", has received 24 nominations, leading all comedies in its final season.

A special blue carpet will be rolled out for the event, as NBC celebrates its 100th anniversary.
