Actor in a Drama Series increased from 94 last year to 102 this year, and Emmy rules say that gender-divided categories should have parity in the number of nominees, which will keep the guest actress category at six.Overall, more than half the categories that are shrinking in size this year are specifically devoted to comedy – and others, including Character Voice-Over Performance and Sound Editing and Sound Mixing for a Comedy or Drama Series (Half Hour) and Animation, are dominated by comedic shows.Other categories that are slated to shrink include Outstanding Reality Competition Program and Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program, both of which are dropping from six nomination slots to five, as well as Main Title Design, Music Supervision and Original Music and Lyrics.Only a handful of categories are in line to grow in size, including Variety Special (Pre-Recorded), Scripted Variety Series (which has different qualifying requirements this year) and Directing for a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie.Overall, more than half the Emmys’ 120 categories had fewer entries than they did last year, while only 30 had more entries.
But in most cases, the change in the number of entries was not enough to trigger a change in the number of nominees.(Note: While the Emmy rules set the number of nominees by the number of contenders, several categories each year will end up with more or fewer nominees because of ties.)The result of this year’s submissions will make some of the comedy races even more competitive than they already were.
