- Bisha K. Ali, Jessica Gao. Now in its second year, Marvel’s massive Disney+ push made interesting genre swings with Ms. Marvel, a rare YA effort, and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, the closest thing to a straight comedy that the 11-figure IP empire has attempted to date.
- Lucia Aniello, Paul W. Downs, Jen Statsky. Defying the near inevitability of a sophomore slump, the second outing of the trio’s Hacks pleased critics and Emmy voters — scoring 17 nominations and another win for star Jean Smart.
- Isaac Aptaker, Elizabeth Berger, Dan Fogelman. NBC’s This Is Us, overseen by Aptaker and Berger, and created by Fogelman, ugly-cried its way across the finish line in May as the top-rated network drama among adults 18-49 in each of its six seasons.

- Greg Berlanti. One of TV’s most prolific makers saw his roster take a hit with Nexstar’s gutting of The CW, but Berlanti produces three of the four originals (All American, spinoff Homecoming and a final season of Superman & Lois) on the evolving broadcast network.
- Quinta Brunson. The creator, star and executive producer of ABC’s Abbott Elementary continues to almost single-handedly keep broadcast in the awards conversation.
- Gloria Calderón Kellett. The former One Day at a Time showrunner helped keep Amazon flush with originals during the two-strike summer, with the debut of drama The Horror of Dolores Roach and a second season of the rom-com With Love — which both stemmed from her overall deal with the streamer and studio.
