'Baby Reindeer' sweeps Emmy Awards 2024 with four wins; Richard Gadd says 'you don’t need big stars... success in television is good storytelling'

The 76th Primetime Emmy Awards saw a significant win for Netflix's gripping stalker drama 'Baby Reindeer', which captured four Emmys on Sunday night.

The series, a powerful adaptation of Richard Gadd's stage play and real-life experiences, secured victories in several key categories.

'Baby Reindeer' clinched the prestigious award for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series, marking a major achievement for the show.
Gadd, who not only stars in but also created the series, was honoured with Emmys for both Best Actor and Best Writer. Accepting his award, he said, “no matter how bad it gets, it always gets better.”

His portrayal of an aspiring comedian tormented by a relentless stalker has been widely praised for its intensity and depth. While taking the stage for the third time as “Baby Reindeer” won the top prize, creator and star Gadd noted that the industry has been in an economic “slump” — but that there’s a way out.
“I do believe no slump was ever broken without a willingness to take risks,” he said. “I think if ‘Baby Reindeer’ has proved anything, it’s that there’s no set formula to this. That you don’t need big stars, proven IP, long-running series, catch-all storytelling to have a hit.”

76th Primetime Emmy Awards: 'Shogun' creates history with record wins; Hiroyuki Sanada grabs Lead Actor

Hiroyuki Sanada made history at the Emmy Awards by becoming the second Asian actor to win the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series award for his role as Lord Yoshii Toranaga in FX’s “Shōgun.” It was the first Emmy for Sanada, who has been acting for almost 60 years! It was a double whammy, as the drama “Shōgun” too, won Emmy for Best Drama Series.
With this, Shogun has sets a record for most Emmys in a season with 18 awards! Sanada’s achievement come close to Lee Jung-jae’s groundbreaking win in 2022, where Lee became the first Asian actor to win the lead drama actor Emmy for his role in Netflix’s “Squid Game.”

Jessica Gunning wins her 1st Primetime Emmy for 'Baby Reindeer'

Actress Jessica Gunning, who essayed the role of Martha Scott, a former lawyer with a criminal past in the psychological black comedy-drama thriller miniseries 'Baby Reindeer', has won the Primetime Emmy Award for the Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series for the show.

This marks her first Emmy win.

During her acceptance speech, the actress said, "I've tried so many times to put into words what working on 'Baby Reindeer' meant to me, and I fail every time. So I'm going to sing."

Jennifer Aniston brings signature glam to Emmy 2024 red carpet in a dazzling champagne gown

Actor Jennifer Aniston made a spectacular return to the Primetime Emmy Awards red carpet on September 15, turning heads in a breathtaking champagne gown that shimmered under the lights.

The 55-year-old star, nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her role as Alex Levy in 'The Morning Show', dazzled in a dress that perfectly captured her timeless elegance and modern flair.

According to People magazine, complementing her gown were exquisite pieces of Tiffany & Co. jewellery that added an extra touch of sophistication.

Her effortless blowout was styled with a deep side part, and she adhered to her signature makeup look--classic and refined.

This year's Emmys mark Aniston's ninth nomination. Reflecting on her previous win at the 2002 Emmys, when she took home the award for Outstanding Comedy Actress for her iconic role as Rachel Green on 'Friends', Aniston's return is particularly poignant.

'Reservation Dogs' star D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai's look for Emmys 2024 is enough to catch the attention of the audience as he arrived for the 76th edition of the prestigious ceremony with a bold red handprint across his face.

As per The Hollywood Reporter, Tai painted a red handprint over his mouth to stand in solidarity with missing and murdered Indigenous women.

Emmy Awards 2024: 'The Bear' stars Jeremy Allen White, Liza Colon-Zayas and Ebon Moss-Bachrach lap up early wins in acting categories

"The Bear" is coming back for seconds in a big way at the Emmys, scoring repeat wins Sunday night for best actor, best supporting actor and best supporting actress in a comedy.

The star of the FX show Jeremy Allen White won best actor in a comedy for the second straight year, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach repeated as best supporting actor.

A surprise came when Liza Colon-Zayas won best supporting actor over major competition.

"How could I have thought it would be possible to be in the presence of Meryl Streep and Carol Burnett," Colon-Zayas said as tears welled in her eyes as she accepted the award on the stage of the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles.

She is the first Latina to win in the category.

"To all the Latinas who are looking at me," she said, "keep believing and vote."
"The Bear" could easily repeat the performance it had at the January strike-delayed Emmys, when it won six including most of the top categories in comedy.

While the third season of FX's "The Bear" has already dropped, the trio won their second Emmys for its second, in which White's chef Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto attempts to turn his family's grungy Chicago sandwich shop into an elite restaurant, with Moss-Bachrach's Richard "Cousin Richie" Jerimovich goes from foul-mouthed ruffian to mindful maitre d'.

Emmys open with Eugene and Dan Levy poking fun of broadcast TV and 'The Bear' as comedy

The father-son hosting duo of Eugene and Dan Levy opened the Emmys on Sunday night by poking fun of the show's strange and changing role.

"Welcome to the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards," Dan Levy said on the ABC telecast from the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. "Also known as broadcast TV's biggest night for honoring movie stars on streaming services."

The two Canadian stars of "Schitt's Creek" were among the big winners of the pandemic-era Emmys in 2020.

They went through the night's nominees, taking a shot at "The Bear" being placed in the category.

"In honor of 'The Bear' we will be making no jokes," Eugene Levy said, to laughs.

Emmy Awards 2024: Selena Gomez stuns in a silver-trimmed black halter gown on the red carpet

Last weekend she was at the ‘Toronto International Film Festival, then she made a pit stop for ‘The Tonight Show’ in New York and now she is turning heads at the Emmy Awards 2024 in Los Angeles. The ‘Only Murders in the Building’ star has been nominated for the ‘Best Actress’ in a comedy series category.

Will the Emmys be the 'Shogun' show?

“Shogun” could win six more trophies, including best drama series, best actor in a drama for Hiroyuki Sanada and best actress in a drama for Anna Sawai.

Though if it fails to win in the biggest categories, “Shogun” may end up feeling like a sports team that has a record-setting regular season then tanks in the playoffs.

Sanada, 63, is a revered veteran Japanese actor whose face may be familiar to most American viewers for films including “The Last Samurai" and “John Wick: Chapter 4” even if his name is not. He's favored by most experts to win best actor over more widely known performers including Gary Oldman, Donald Glover and Idris Elba.

Sawai, 32, even less known in the U.S., is in the same situation, favored over famous names like Jennifer Aniston — who had been considered a frontrunner for “The Morning Show” before the “Shogun” wave took shape — and her castmate Reese Witherspoon.

Either Sanada or Sawai would be the first Japanese actor to win an Emmy.

When “Shogun” led all Emmy nominees with 25 at the announcements in July, many — including The Associated Press — suggested it was at least in part because of the absence of last year's HBO big three: “Succession," “The White Lotus” and “The Last of Us.”

But its dominance at the Creative Arts ceremony put it in its own class. It wasn't just the number, it was the percentage. It won 14 of the 16 awards it was up for, getting snubbed only in two music categories. It won for its costumes, its hairdressing, its cinematography, its costumes, its casting and many more categories on its way to breaking the record of 13 Emmys set by the 2008 limited series “John Adams.”

Who is hosting the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards?

An ABC awards show not hosted by Jimmy Kimmel? It's about to happen. And the father-son duo of Eugene and Dan Levy make plenty of sense as replacements.

The four-time Oscar host Kimmel emceed the last time ABC aired the show in 2020, and those “Pandemmies” were among the only successful awards shows of the pandemic era. The novelty of an empty theatre, show's casts gathered together in remote locations, and a hazmat-suited representative comically handing out the trophies somehow worked.

The stars of that show were the cast members of the Levys' show “Schitt's Creek,” which swept the comedy categories including wins for best actor for Eugene Levy and best supporting actor for Dan.

Who are the TOP contenders for the Emmy Awards 2024?

“Shogun” is the leading nominee with 25, while “The Bear” has 23, including best comedy series and best actor in a comedy series for Jeremy Allen White — both awards it won at January’s strike-delayed ceremony. Ayo Edebiri, who won best supporting actress in January, is nominated in the best comedy actress field this time.

“The Crown” with 19 nominations and “Hacks” with 16 each return to the Emmys after their own years off. Elizabeth Debicki is nominated for best supporting actress in a drama for playing Princess Diana, while Imelda Staunton is nominated for playing Queen Elizabeth II.

Two-time Academy Award winner Jodie Foster is a good bet to win her first Emmy as best actress in a limited or anthology series or TV movie for her role in “True Detective: Night Country.”

Reigning best supporting actor Oscar winner Robert Downey Jr. could also become a first-time Emmy winner. He’s up for best supporting actor in the limited series category for playing five different roles in “The Sympathizer.”

Where to watch the Emmys outside the US?

The Emmys are watchable in dozens of countries. The Television Academy website has a handy list of broadcasters and in some instances, air times. You can access that at https://www.emmys.com/watch. Those tuning in from India, can stream the award show on Lionsgate Play.

How to watch and stream the 76th annual Emmy Awards

If it seems like the Emmys just happened, you're not wrong.

The 76th Emmy Awards are roughly nine months after the last celebration of the best television. Last year's Hollywood strikes delayed the show's 75th edition until January, when “Succession” and “The Bear” dominated the show.

“The Bear” will factor heavily in this weekend's show, but January's “Succession” celebration was for its final season, clearing the way for a new drama series winner.

Enter “Shogun.” The FX series about feudal Japan enters the show with 14 wins thanks to the Creative Arts Emmy ceremony last weekend. That makes it the record-holder for most wins for a single season, and it will likely extend that lead.

Here’s what you need to know about Sunday's Emmys, including how to watch and stream the red carpet and show, and who’s nominated.

2024 Creative Arts Emmys Winners List: Shogun, The Bear and Only Murders In The Building take the lead

The 2024 Creative Arts Emmys saw a weekend of celebration as winners across 99 categories were revealed in ceremonies held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The standout of the event was the epic drama series Shōgun, which made history by securing 14 awards, the most ever won by a single drama series in one season. Additionally, the series' companion film The Making of Shōgun earned another trophy, further cementing its dominance. This achievement surpasses the previous record held by the miniseries John Adams.

Alongside Shōgun, other notable winners included The Bear, Saturday Night Live, and Only Murders in the Building, each earning multiple accolades over the two-night event.

While much of the weekend’s focus was on the behind-the-scenes brilliance in categories such as directing, editing, casting, and production design, there were also key recognitions for on-screen talent. Jamie Lee Curtis and Jon Bernthal were awarded Outstanding Guest Actress and Actor in a Comedy Series, respectively, for their roles in The Bear's acclaimed episode "Fishes". Meanwhile, Néstor Carbonell took home Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series for his performance in Shōgun, and Michaela Coel earned Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series for her role in Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

Other highlights of the weekend included songwriters Benj Pasek and Justin Paul joining the exclusive EGOT club with a win for Best Original Music and Lyrics for Only Murders in the Building’s song "Which of the Pickwick Triplets Did It?". Pat Sajak claimed Best Host for a Game Show in his final season on Wheel of Fortune, while Alan Cumming broke RuPaul's eight-year streak by winning Best Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program.

First-time Emmy wins went to Angela Bassett (Outstanding Narrator), Eric André (Best Performer in a Short Form Comedy or Drama Series), and producers Sandra Oh and Awkwafina, whose film Quiz Lady won Best Television Movie.
