Pitt led the nominations with 25 in the second season of the reign, when Hacking led all comedies with 24 for its final season as Emmy nominations were announced Wednesday.
HBO Max emergency room series Pitt last year he was a musical who came away with big wins including best drama series, best actor for Noah Wyle and best supporting actress for Katherine LaNasa.
Already a veteran show favorite, it dominated this year’s acting categories. Wyle was reappointed, as was LaNasa. Taylor Dearden, Fiona Dourif and Sepideh Moafi also received nominations, and Pitt taking four of the seven supporting actor roles.
Three of their teammates were nominated for best supporting actor: Patrick Ball, Shawn Hatosy and Gerran Howell.
Emmy voters love an exit show, and they did Hacking since its first season. The two colliding events earned him a nomination for his fifth and final season.
Hacking star Jean Smart has won best actress in a comedy for all four of the past seasons. It would be amazing if he didn’t claim five in September.
