The limited series format is a monster. And that has created a problem for the Television Academy.

Year after year, limited series are among the buzziest shows on television and the ones that attract the biggest stars. Contenders this year in those acting categories include one 2024 Oscar winner, Robert Downey Jr., and a formidable array of other luminaries that includes Jodie Foster, Lily Gladstone, Brie Larson, Kate Winslet, Nicole Kidman, Julianne Moore, Annette Bening, Austin Butler, Michael Douglas, Jon Hamm, Ewan McGregor and Laura Dern. 

(Granted, the drama series acting categories can counter with Emma Stone and Gary Oldman, but still.)
