Max Streaming For Your Consideration Panels Ahead of Emmy Voting; Watch Eligible Shows With Max’s Free Trial
Shows like ‘True Detective,’ ‘Hacks,’ ’ The Sympathizer,’ and others are putting their best foot forward for Emmy voters.
The Primetime Emmy Awards are still three months out, but campaign season is in full gear. The nomination round of voting began this week and runs through Monday, June 24. As is often the case, Warner Bros. Discovery has dozens of titles up for consideration between the premium prestige programs of HBO and the buzzy streaming-exclusive shows on Max. To help remind voters of the series that they loved over the past year, Max is launching For Your Consideration (FYC) panels featuring the cast, producers, and crews of titles to make the case for their nominations. Subscribers can find a large selection of panels on Max now, and those who aren’t already signed up for Max can take advantage of the streamer’s limited-time free trial to check out the panels and the shows themselves!
Key Details:
- For Your Consideration panels are now available for titles like “The Righteous Gemstones,” “STAX: Soulsville USA,” and more.
- Viewers can find the promotional videos in the “Extras” tab on the content details page.
- Max is offering new customers a seven-day free trial between now and June 23.
FYC panels are a tried and true component of every Hollywood awards campaign season. They give voters an opportunity to get a deeper understanding of the eligible titles; not to mention the chance to hobnob with the A-list creators. However, this marks the first time that HBO and Max have brought the erstwhile exclusive events to the masses. The videos feature insights and anecdotes from the teams behind the shows, movies, and documentaries, allowing viewers to get candid from the stars and creators of their favorite shows.
Fans who want to watch FYC panels can find them on a show’s “Extras” section of its most recent season).
