Dana Walden On Disney’s 183 Emmy Nominations & Commitment To Linear In Integrated Ecosystem
Dana Walden, Co-Chairman of Disney Entertainment, talks about the company's' 183 Emmy nominations and its commitment to linear.
As Co-Chairman of Disney Entertainment, Dana Walden oversees FX, Hulu as well as ABC, whose Abbott Elementary continued to carry the flag for broadcast series with 9 Emmy nominations, and various other television divisions of the company. Walden took a subtle jab at the way Emmy nominations are tallied, since HBO and Max consolidated their awards presence years ago, and Netflix, along with most of the other streamers with tech pedigree, put all of their shows on a single platform. With 25 Emmy nominations to add to that, would Walden consider FX getting a larger budget for more shots at epic series like Shōgun and Noah Hawley’s upcoming Alien amid other possible strategy tweaks going forward?
