'Shogun', 'The Bear' dominate 76th Emmy Awards

FX’s Shogun and The Bear dominated the 76th Emmys in Los Angeles on Sunday night with 18 and 11 wins apiece, despite an upset in the comedy series category where HBO/Max’s Hacks was the surprise winner.

Shogun was named best dramatic series and took home both lead acting wins for Hiroyuku Sanada and Anna Sawai, who became the first actress of Asian descent to win the category.

Although comedy series favourite The Bear ceded its crown towards the show’s climax at Peacock Theater, it garnered a best lead comedy actor win for Jeremy Allen White, while Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Liza Colón-Zayasc swept the supporting categories.

Jean Smart won best lead comedy actress for HBO/Max’s Hacks in another prestige win for the show, which won three awards on the night.

Netflix’s UK hit Baby Reindeer came third in the pecking order with six wins, including best limited or anthology series or movie, best lead actor for Richard Gadd and best supporting actress to Jessica Gunning for portraying his on-screen nemesis. Gadd won three Emmys on the night, including writing and executive producer.

Jodie Foster earned best lead actress in a limited or anthology series or movie for HBO/Max’s True Detective: Night Country.

Shogun and The Bear started the night as the two most-nominated shows on 25 and 23 nods apiece, followed by Hulu’s Only Murders In The Building with 21. HBO/Max’s True Detective: Night Country earned 19 nods, and Baby Reindeer 11.
