\n\tThe United Kingdom led all territories in nominations at this year\u2019s International Emmys<\/a>, landing 14 nods total \u2014 including Disney+\u2019s \u201cA Thousand Blows\u201d in drama and Netflix\u2019s \u201cMan vs. Baby\u201d in comedy. Brazil followed, with nine nominations, then Spain with five.<\/p>\n

\n\tMeanwhile, not making the cut was Bell Media\/Crave\u2019s \u201cHeated Rivalry<\/a>,\u201d although a Bell Media rep confirmed that it had been submitted. \u201cHeated Rivalry\u201d was a phenom earlier this year both internationally and in the U.S., where it ran on HBO Max \u2014 but because it was a Canadian commission with no U.S. production partners, it wasn\u2019t eligible for the Television Academy\u2019s Primetime Emmy consideration. Hence, it was eligible for an International Emmy, but it wasn\u2019t among the nominees announced on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\n\tBesides \u201cA Thousand Blows,\u201d other drama series that did make the cut included France\u2019s \u201cCar\u00eame,\u201d Argentina\u2019s \u201cMenem\u201d and India\u2019s \u201cReal Kashmir Football Club.\u201d On the comedy side, besides \u201cMan vs Baby,\u201d nominees include Argentina\u2019s \u201cDivisi\u00f3n Palermo \u2014 Season 2 [Community Squad],\u201d Spain\u2019s \u201cOld Dog, New Tricks\u201d and India\u2019s \u201cVir Das: Fool Volume.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAll told, the International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences revealed 64 nominees across 16 categories and spanning 22 countries. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe International Emmy Awards are as competitive as ever, with an outstanding range of entries from around the world vying for a coveted nomination,\u201d International Academy presidentCEO Bruce L. Paisner said in a statement. \u201cWe look forward to bringing the global television community together to celebrate these exceptional programs and performances.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWinners will be announced at the 54th International Emmy Awards Gala in New York on Monday, Nov. 23.<\/p>\n

\n\tNominees this year also came from Argentina, Belgium, Canada, Chile, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, Mexico, the Netherlands, Norway, the Philippines, Portugal, Qatar, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea and T\u00fcrkiye.<\/p>\n
