Emmy Predictions: Documentary Programs — Nonfiction Races Spotlight Pee-wee Herman, Simone Biles and YouTube Creators


2025 Emmys documentary series and specials predictions include "Pee Wee as Himself," "Will and Harper," "Simone Biles: Rising" and more.

Meanwhile, Apple TV+ has two major entries: “Number One on the Call Sheet,” a celebration of Black excellence in Hollywood executive produced by Jamie Foxx and Kevin Hart, and “Bono: Stories of Surrender,” a theatrical and lyrical one-man show that could resonate with voters who love musical experimentation. Hulu’s “Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band” hits the sweet spot of rock doc and personal reflection, offering rare behind-the-scenes moments from the Boss himself. YouTube’s “Challenged Accepted” is vying for a spot in the Primetime lineup, hosted by former professional cyclist Michelle Khare, which could appeal to younger voters seeking adrenaline and empowerment.
