The nominations for the 73rd annual Emmy Awards are here, and they include a few surprises. After a few years where we were so dependent on television, it's incredible to see the diverse and interesting list of shows that made the cut. Emmy winners Ron Cephas Jones (This Is Us) and his daughter Jasmine Cephas Jones (#FreeRayshawn) made the announcement this morning. 

While last year was mostly a virtual event, this year will have an actual audience. It happens on Sunday, Sept. 19, at the Microsoft Theater in downtown Los Angeles, and is hosted for CBS by The Neighborhood‘s Cedric the Entertainer. 

Check out the full list of nominees below.
