The show, held live at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, saw fierce competition across all categories. While “Severance” was the night’s most-nominated series and biggest winner, the comedy awards were split between beloved hits “The Bear” and “Abbott Elementary,” while the star-studded limited series categories saw “The Penguin” take top honors. For those who missed the action, here is the complete list of winners from last night’s ceremony.
The Night of ‘Severance’: Apple TV+’s Dystopian Thriller Takes Top Honors
After two seasons of critical acclaim and building cultural buzz, the brilliantly unsettling workplace drama “Severance” finally had its moment at the Emmys. The series, which led the pack with an incredible 27 nominations, was crowned the winner of the night’s most prestigious award, Outstanding Drama Series. This marks a massive victory for Apple TV+ and a powerful statement from the Television Academy, which chose to reward a bold, unconventional, and thought-provoking series with its highest honor.
The wins for “Severance” didn’t stop there. Adam Scott took home the trophy for Lead Actor in a Drama Series for his masterful and complex portrayal of Mark Scout, a man grappling with a surgically divided consciousness. It was a long-awaited and well-deserved win for Scott. The show’s incredible ensemble was further recognized when John Turturro won for Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for his moving performance as the fastidious and heartbreaking Irving. Combined with its Creative Arts Emmy win for Guest Actress Merritt Wever, “Severance” was the undeniable champion of the evening, cementing its status as one of the best shows on television.
Comedy Race Sees “The Bear” and “Abbott Elementary” Share the Spoils
The comedy categories featured a tight race between several fan-favorite and critically adored shows. In the end, voters chose to spread the love between two of television’s most acclaimed comedies. FX’s “The Bear” took home the award for Outstanding Comedy Series for its intense and emotional second season. The show’s star, Jeremy Allen White, also won for Lead Actor in a Comedy Series, his second consecutive win for his role as chef Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto.
However, ABC’s heartwarming sitcom “Abbott Elementary” also had a fantastic night. Creator and star Quinta Brunson won the Emmy for Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, a huge victory for the beloved network show. Her co-star, the legendary Sheryl Lee Ralph, also took home the award for Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series, her second win for her role as the dignified and inspiring Barbara Howard. The shared success of both shows highlighted the incredible strength and diversity of the current comedy landscape.
