Deadline’s Contenders Television Livestream Event Set For May 15 With 49 Shows, 129 Stars And Creatives Participating

For a second year in a row, Deadline’s popular Contenders Television is going virtual, with an astonishing 129 creatives and stars set to appear in the all-day event Saturday, May 15 that features a total of 21 networks participating and 49 different shows. This is the must-see happening of the TV awards season and it promises to be our biggest yet as we pull out all the stops to give voters a kind of one-stop shopping opportunity to check out the top contenders for TV’s highest awards.

The magnitude of what is on offer in all facets of television means this Contenders opportunity has grown to become the largest of all of them that we do. Last weekend, we launched our first separate Contenders Television Documentary + Unscripted event to great response, and now we tackle the hopefuls in key competitive categories for Primetime recognition.
