Fallout's second season has been nominated for more Emmys, even if it's significantly fewer than last time

Fallout's second season has received nine Emmy nominations, a significant decrease from the 16 nominations it received for its first season. The show missed out on high-profile categories it was previously nominated for, including Outstanding Drama Series, Outstanding Lead Actor, and Outstanding Writing. Despite being considered a divisive season, Amazon declared it Prime Video's sixth biggest season of all time and its second biggest returning series behind Reacher's second season. The show faces stiff competition this year from series like The Pitt (25 nominations), Widow's Bay (19), and Pluribus (18).
