'The Bear' beat its own Emmy Awards record when it scooped four wins at the Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday (15.09.24).
The culinary saga set a new record for most wins in a single season for a comedy with 11 - one more than it received in 2023 - after Christopher Storer won Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series and stars Jeremy Allen White (Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series), Liza Colon-Zayas (Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series) and Ebon Moss-Bacharach (Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series) scooped acting honours at the ceremony, adding to the seven prizes it had received last weekend at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards. However, the show received a shock snub in the Outstanding Comedy Series category, with the night's final award going to 'Hacks'. And 'Hacks' also saw Jean Smart triumph in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series category.

Elsewhere at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, 'Shogun' picked up the Outstanding Drama Series accolade, while stars Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai won the Outstanding Lead Actor and Actress in a Drama prizes, and Frederick E.
O. Yoke won Outstanding Directing For A Drama Series, meaning that with its record-breaking 14 Creative Arts Emmy wins last weekend, the Japanese show took home an astonishing 18 prizes. 'Baby Reindeer' dominated the limited se.
