The best of television was celebrated in California’s lavish Peacock Theatre on January 15 during the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards. The glitzy evening dished out trophies in various categories in acting, writing, direction, and overall best shows on TV, among others. FX’s comedy-drama The Bear — about a young fine-dining chef who leaves behind his illustrious New York career and comes home to Chicago to run his family sandwich shop — won the maximum number of awards including Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series and Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series.
Jesse Armstrong’s satirical comedy-drama Succession — which revolves around a global media and entertainment conglomerate owned by the Roy Family — enjoyed the highest number of nominations in multiple categories. The series is now also the first ever to receive three nominations for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series.
In terms of limited series, Korean director Lee Sung Jin’s Beef emerged as an undisputed winner. There was something for video game enthusiasts as well! HBO’s Last of Us became the first live-action video game adaptation to be nominated in major Emmy categories.
Other winning programmes include Abbott Elementary, The White Lotus, Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver.
Repeating the roaring success at the Critics’ Choice Awards, HBO/Max dominated the nominations at the Emmys as well and became the first network with four Outstanding Drama Series nominees since NBC at the 1992 ceremony.
