#88 – Shogun Ascends the TV Throne
The one with all the Emmy buzz.
Aug 19, 2024
We’re less than a month away from the Primetime Emmys and one show is poised to sweep the Drama categories with a big pivot (and an even bigger renewal): It’s the FX not-so-limited series Shogun. We talk about the big 2-season renewal, its awards chances, and the shocking series-turned-season finale. (We’ll have some follow-up about the season 2 plans next week, too!)
But first: It’s America’s favorite unlicensed game show! RENEWED OR CANCELED?!
