Since 2003, the Best Competition Program Emmy has been awarded annually in recognition of reality entertainment structured around talent or endurance contests. This year, there are 59 such options for TV academy members to choose from on their first-round nominations ballots, which means there will be five nominees announced on July 12. This is down from 81 entrants in 2022 and 67 in 2021.
