Public broadcaster Kcet — part of a PBS duopoly with Koce “PBS SoCal” — is back on top at the Los Angeles Area Emmys. Thanks to locally produced series like “Artbound” and “Broken Bread,” Kcet dominated the L.A. area Emmy nominations, announced Tuesday, with 24.
That’s a return to the top spot among nominees, and up from 15 last year. Cable news outlet Spectrum News 1, which dominated last year’s Emmy nominations, was down to 14 this year (vs. 23 in 2022) — still good enough for third place.
Meanwhile, Telemundo outlet Kvea (part of a duopoly with NBC-owned Knbc) saw a huge surge as well, with 20 nominations — up from just 8 last year. That meant Kvea was not only tops with Spanish outlets, but it was also tops with all commercial broadcasters. That includes its sibling NBC4, just posted just two nominations.
As usual, all stations that enter are immediately nominated in the daily morning newscast (4 a.

Maybe we could have waited awhile longer.
After five years of bruising lawsuits and ownership changes that delayed the release of ''Brenda Starr, '' the film that limps into a limited release this week hardly warrants the fuss.
This live-action version of Dale Messick's 50-year-old comic strip is a slight and forgettable action comedy. By now ''Brenda Starr'' should have been a dusty video shelf-item, rented occasionally to entertain undemanding family audiences.
In a few more months it will fulfill that destiny. Triumph has little hope of attracting any kind of theatrical response other than from the insatiably curious.
Brooke Shields is certainly glamorous enough as the red-headed reporter-cum-clothes horse. And Timothy Dalton cuts a dashing figure as her mysterious admirer and helpmate, Basil St. John.
But a multitude of writers force the humor at every turn. Director Robert Ellis Miller pushes even harder for farcical action to wearying effect.
The only glimmer of a potentially amusing satirical film lies in the comic-strip ambiance provided by John J. Lloyd's production design and in a provocative character played by Tony Peck, the illustrator who draws the strip and somehow becomes entangled in the heroine's escapades.
But rather than playing with the intriguing possibilities of an artist getting involved with his fictional creation, Miller and the writers allow Peck's character to become a third wheel to the romance between Brenda and Basil.
The filmmakers compound the missed opportunities in not fully deploying fiery Diana Scarwid, who plays a rival reporter.
The story about Brenda's hot pursuit of a Nazi scientist in the South American jungle is thinner than a ''Saturday Night Live'' skit.
Bob Mackie's terrific '40s costumes worn by Shields are decked out with more imagination. Indeed some sequences come together for the express purpose of displaying Mackie's creation. At least that opportunity wasn't missed.
