When HBO scored four slots on this year’s list of outstanding drama Emmy nominees, it wasn’t quite a huge surprise. The pay cabler is holding a hot hand at the moment — and I said as much in my February Variety magazine cover story of HBO and Max content chairman/CEO Casey Bloys. With “Succession,” “The Last of Us,” “House of the Dragon” and “The White Lotus” among the biggest shows of the year, and eight available slots in the category, of course HBO would land those four.
And yet, let’s give credit where credit is due. It is extremely impressive. And it has only happened twice before: In 1992, when NBC scored four of five slots, with “I’ll Fly Away,” “L.A. Law,” “Law & Order” and “Quantum Leap”; and 1973, when CBS landed four of six with “The Waltons,” “Cannon,” “Hawaii Five-o” and “Mannix.”

Evan Peters and his “Dahmer — Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” dad Richard Jenkins are the odds-on favorites to take home the Emmys for Best Limited Series/TV Movie Actor and Best Limited Series/TV Movie Supporting Actor, respectively. They’re already Emmy winners in the opposite categories, and if they prevail in September, they’ll join a small group of men who’ve won both limited/TV movie acting prizes.
Just six actors have swept both categories, which have undergone various name changes over the years. Laurence Olivier reigns supreme with five trophies total. He has four in lead for “The Moon and Sixpence” (1960), “Long Day’s Journey into Night” (1973), “Love Among the Ruins” (1975) and “King Lear” (1984), and one in supporting for “Brideshead Revisited” (1982).
Michael Moriarty has four, but they come with an asterisk. He owns lead and supporting statuettes for “Holocaust” (1978) and “James Dean” (2002), respectively, and won two Emmys...

Three seasons ago, "Brothers & Sisters" matriarch Nora Walker (Sally Field) romanced a political operative played by Danny Glover. The pair had co-starred in 1984's "Places in the Heart," which won Field her second Best Actress Oscar. Now comes word, via Michael Ausiello, that Beau Bridges -- Field's husband in 1979's "Norma Rae" which got her that first Oscar -- will be appearing in a multiple episode arc of the ABC drama as another love interest. Bridges may never have contended at the Oscars, but he is a 12-time Emmy nominee. Among those dozen bids have been two for Guest Drama Actor -- in 1995 for "The Outer Limits" and this year for "The Closer." While he lost both those races, Bridges has won three Emmys: Lead Movie/Mini Actor in 1992 for "Without Warning: The James Brady Story" and Supporting Movie/Mini Actor for both "The Positively True Adventures of the Alleged...

Ted Danson earned his 15th Emmy nod for "Damages." He also contended in this category last year while he was a supporting actor nominee for his first season on this crime drama. He won two (1990, 1993) of his 11 consecutive lead actor bids for "Cheers" and was also nominated for his lead performance in the landmark TV movie "Something About Amelia" in 1983. Beau Bridges made it an even dozen Emmy bids with his nomination for "The Closer." Last year, he contended for guest actor in the comedy series "Desperate Housewives." Bridges has won three Emmys: lead actor in a movie/mini in 1992 for "Without Warning: The James Brady Story" and two supporting wins...

Emmy winner Beau Bridges has been tapped to star in Lifetime's drama pilot Family Practice.
Meanwhile, Krista Allen is set to co-star opposite Jack Carpenter in Comedy Central's half-hour pilot Held Up.
Practice, from Sony Pictures TV and Lost co-creator Jeffrey Lieber, centers on a South Philly girl who becomes entangled personally and professionally with the affluent, Kennedyesque family members of one of the city's most prestigious law firms.
Bridges will play the family's patriarch, a brilliant, radical, Machiavellian lawyer who once defended the most controversial clients he could find. He is a peerless legal mind but not so successful as a father and a husband.
Bridges won Emmys for his roles in the telefilms The Second Civil War, Without Warning: The James Brady Story and The Positively True Adventures of the Alleged Texas Cheerleader-Murdering Mom.
He earned his 11th Emmy nomination this year for his guest-starring role on NBC's My Name Is Earl.
Bridges is repped by CAA.
Held Up, also from Sony Pictures TV, centers on Ray (Carpenter), a bored bank teller whose life changes dramatically when two teams of crazy robbers -- disguised as James Bond, Spider-Man, Batman and The Three Stooges -- hold up his branch.
