This was from a Parade magazine list and has been updated through 2022. Of all the various lists, this was the closest to being the best. One important note. The reason the #1 show has the least Emmy wins and noms is because the Emmys began as a local award in 1949. As TV grew, in 1951 it became a national award with only eight categories. From the late 50’s to today they have continued to add more and more categories. With the advent of cable, streaming, etc. it has also allowed for even more categories and productions to be included in the Emmy voting. As of 2022 these are the shows and numbers of noms and wins.
