In a significant move that has been tried before, the Television Academy‘s Board of Governors voted to drop several categories from the 2026 Primetime Emmy show, set for NBC on Monday, September 14, and move them to the Creative Arts ceremonies held on the previous weekend of September 5 and 6.
For the first time, though, the Academy has decided to move some key categories for Limited Series/Anthology/Television Movie off the Primetime show, including Supporting Actor and Actress, Writing and Directing. Also being jettisoned to Creative Arts is Writing for a Variety Series.
