Paris”; “The Flight Attendant”; “The Kominsky
Method” and “PEN15.”

Railroad”; “WandaVision.”
Father-and-daughter actors Ron Cephas
Jones (“This Is Us”) and Jasmine Cephas Jones
(“Blindspotting”) and TV Academy head
Frank Scherma announced the nominees.
There were awkward moments when the
pair mispronounced some nominees’ names,
including referring to Anya Taylor-Joy
as “Anna.”
The Sept. 19 ceremony, which last year was
held virtually because of the COVID-
pandemic, will air live on CBS from a theater
and include a limited in-person audience of
nominees and guests. Cedric the Entertainer is
the host.
