Like 'Ted Lasso' before it, 'The Bear''s second-season premiere during the Emmy campaign window may boost its chances to secure the prize for best comedy series for its debut season.
Similar unwritten rules apply to the Emmys.

Unlike the Oscar season, there is a lack of precursor awards ceremonies that can help keep contenders at the front of the race .
While a late release date for a new series that proves a fan favorite may seem to be an ideal scenario to capture an Emmy for best comedy series, what may be even more perfect is if a fan favorite drops its second season during the eligibility window. Just look at Apple TV+’s, which took home the top comedy prize in the past two years. The series first landed on the streamer in August 2020, when Apple debuted the first three episodes.
Then the comedy returned to Apple TV+ on July 23, 2021 — 10 days after that month’s Emmy nominations announcement. Suddenly, the cast and creatives extended their already busy press tour for the second season into an Emmy campaign for the first. The sophomore outing’s critical acclaim — it scored 98 percent on Rotten Tomatoes — added fuel to the fire. Not only wouldscore a win for best comedy, but it also netted Emmys for stars Jason Sudeikis, Brett Goldstein and Hannah Waddingham.
