73rd Emmy Awards: Full List of Winners

The 73^rd Primetime Emmy Awards held live yesterday, Sunday 19 September from the Microsoft Theatre in LA.

Ted Lasso boasted the most nominations in the comedy category going into the ceremony (20). The jocund Apple TV+ original follows an American football coach (Jason Sudeikis) who moves to London to manage a professional soccer team in the English Premiere League.  At the end of the ceremony, Ted Lasso had won the Outstanding Comedy Series, Lead Actor (Sudeikis), Supporting Actress (Hannah Waddington), and Supporting Actor (Brett Goldstein) awards, bringing their total to a haul of four on the night.

Switching to drama, Netflix original The Crown and Disney+ series The Mandalorian were tied with each other for the most nominated drama series (20), but the Netflix show which explores the reign of Queen Elizabeth II outperformed its Disney+ counterpart, pulling off a trio of sweeps: Olivia Colman and Josh O’Connor won Lead Actress and Lead Actor, Gillian Anderson and Tobias Menzies triumphed in the supporting categories, and the show also nabbed writing and directing statuettes. Including wins at the Creative Arts Emmys, The Crown tallied 11 wins.

The year’s Emmys, hosted by Cedric the Entertainer marked a shift from last year’s Zoom affair during the thick of the pandemic. It wasn’t particularly kind to heavily nominated popular shows: WandaVision, The Mandalorian and Lovecraft Country, which never made it to the spotlight on the night. (All three had better luck at the Creative Arts Emmys.) Things went much better for newcomer HBO Max comedy Hacks. In a category where three quarters of the Outstanding Comedy nominees were new – the beloved standup series starring Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder triumphed in the Lead Actress category (Smart) and edged fellow freshman Lasso in the writing and directing categories.

British actress Kate Winslet also took home the statuette for Lead Actress in the Limited Series category with The Mare of Easttown. Co-stars Evan Peters and Julianne Nicholson also emerged victorious in the Supporting categories. London-born multi-hyphenate Michaela Coel scored a writing Emmy in the limited series category for her work on I May Destroy You. And another Brit, Ewan McGregor, scored a surprise win in the Lead Actor in a limited series category for Halston. And let’s not forget Last Night with John Oliver, which took home two awards.

The Queen’s Gambit cornered the Limited Series trophy, Hamilton won for variety special, and Debbie Allen was honoured with the Governors Award.
