Children’s & Family Emmy award

The first ever Children’s & Family Emmy Awards, part of the official Emmys, has announced its nominations, and The Walt Disney Company has received 86 of them.

These nominations reach across its various content brands and studios: Disney Branded Television, Disney Channel, Disney Junior, Disney Television Studios’ 20th Television, Lucasfilm Ltd., Pixar Animation Studios, and Walt Disney Studios.

Disney+ alone received 62 of the nominations for various shows. “The Mysterious Benedict Society” series, and the movie “Sneakerella” lead the pack with 11 nominations each.

The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) announced the new stand-alone awards show in November 2021, after a surge in submissions in the children’s genre.

“Putting a spotlight on children’s & family programming after years of unparalleled growth in content quality and quantity in this space is an exciting moment for the television industry,” NATAS President and CEO Adam Sharp said in a statement. “These programs entertain, inform and educate family members of all ages, and NATAS is proud to mark this milestone event and give these creators the stage they deserve.”

The award winners will be announced on Saturday and Sunday, December 10-11, 2022, at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles. No word on if it will be broadcast to the public or not.
