12 on NBC.

The ceremony begins at 8 p.m.

EDT, will be about three hours and streams for free on the Peacock service.

This year, 'SNL' veteran Kenan Thompson will host for the first time.

Among the shows that are repeat nominations for best series in the respective comedy and drama categories include the Apple+ series 'Ted Lasso' ... and HBO's 'Succession.'.

Viewer favorites that are newly nominated this year include the Netflix hit 'Squid Game' ... .

And Amazon's 'Only Murders in the Building.'.

'This Is Us' received just one nomination this year.

Dave Chappelle's controversial comedy show 'The Closer' also received a nomination.

The top individual awards are decided by industry peer groups.

While winners for 14 other categories are decided by the 17,000 voting members of the TV academy
