NEW YORK (AP) — The 76th Primetime Emmy Awards are over, with “Shogun” claiming the top drama prize and “Hacks” winning best comedy. The hosts, father-son duo Eugene and Dan Levy, opened the show Sunday night. They won Emmys at the 2020 awards for “Schitt’s Creek.
” “Shogun,” “The Bear” and “Baby Reindeer” were favorites going into the night. “Shogun” emerged with the top drama prize and “Baby Reindeer” snagged the limited series trophy. “Shogun′′ extended its lead for most wins by a show in a single season, collecting 18 Emmys this year.
But “Hacks" emerged as the top comedy series, denying “The Bear” a comedy series repeat. The Emmys are back in their traditional mid-September spot after a single strike-delayed edition in January. The show began at 8 p.
m., Eastern time, and is airing on ABC from the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles. Here's the latest: An ‘overwhelmed’ and Emmy-laden Richard Gadd reflects, but declines to comment on lawsuit “I’m blessed with all the people around me who helped me make it happen.
I kind of just feel a bit overwhelmed right now. I wasn’t expecting this,” Richard Gadd said backstage after his three wins for “Baby Reindeer.” “I’m just so glad that the show has touched the lives of so many people, and the Academy have acknowledged it in this way.
It’s the greatest night of my life. What can I say?” Gadd also initially declined to answer a question about the $170 million.
