Jon Hamm Disqualified From Emmy Guest Actor Category for The Morning Show Due to Submission Error

Analysed 12 Jun 2026·2 sources analysed·Hamm, Germany·Entertainment
Jon Hamm Disqualified From Emmy Guest Actor Category for The Morning Show Due to Submission ErrorPreviousNext

Jon Hamm was disqualified from the Emmy guest actor in a drama series category for his role in The Morning Show Season 4 due to a submission error by Apple TV. The Television Academy's 2025 rule prohibits actors previously nominated in lead or supporting categories for the same role from competing as guest performers. Hamm appeared in three episodes and was mistakenly entered in the guest category despite a prior supporting actor nomination in 2024. He remains eligible for other Emmy categories.
