The 69th annual Primetime Emmy Awards, hosted by Stephen Colbert, are this Sunday at 8 p.m. EST. Given the wealth of great TV this year, the competition is sure to be heated. Both Master of None and Atlanta are nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series, while Stranger Things, The Handmaid’s Tale, Westworld, and The Crown are all in the running for Outstanding Drama Series. A full list of nominees is available here.
