The 76th Primetime Emmy Awards turned out to be a big night for some shows, just not for one of our personal favorites. Shōgun had a record-setting evening at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. As did The Bear, even though it didn’t take home the top prize for a Comedy. Unfortunately, Fallout got completely shut out by the Television Academy at the Emmys and did not take home a single prize during the 2024 ceremony.
Shōgun took home a whole lot more than just the Emmys’ most prestigious award at the 2024 awards show. The Best Drama Series winner racked up three more of the event’s biggest awards. That included Anna Sawai for Best Actress in a Drama Series. Her co-star, the great Hiroyuki Sanada, also nabbed Best Actor. And Frederick E.O. Toye went home with the win for Best Directing in a Drama Series. That gave the show’s first season 18 total Emmys, as it had previously won 14 during the Creative Arts Primetime Emmys. That is the new record for a single season of a show. Shōgun shatters the previous record of 13 Emmys held by Game of Thrones and HBO’s John Adams miniseries. All that said, we were rooting for Shōgun‘s Tadanobu Asano to take home “Best Supporting Actor in a Drama,” but Asano lost out the 2024 Emmy to Billy Crudup in The Morning Show.
The Bear, that very funny show everyone is always laughing at, had another successful Emmy Awards, competing in the Comedy categories, although many out there aren’t quite sure it counts as a comedy. It broke its own Primetime Emmys record for a single season by taking home 11 total 2024 Emmys for the show’s sophomore outing after adding four at the Peacock Theater. Jeremy Allen White (Best Lead Actor), Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Best Supporting Actor), and Christopher Storer (Best Directing) all won their Comedy categories. As did Liza Colón-Zayas, who took home a historic Best Supporting Actress win. She is the first Latina winner in the category’s history.
Despite The Bear‘s continued stranglehold on the Television Academy, it was Hacks that earned Best Comedy Series and Best Lead Actress (Jean Smart) at the 2024 Emmys. That surprise win also meant Curb Your Enthusiasm finished its run setting the wrong kind of record. The iconic series was nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series 11 times. That’s the most ever without actually winning. (A travesty!)
While the show featured some other wins that made us very happy (The Crown‘s Elizabeth Debicki, Fargo‘s Lamorne Morris, True Detective: Night Country‘s Jodie Foster), it was disappointing to see Fallout never get called to the stage at the Emmys. Despite the fantastic first season’s 16 Emmy nominations, it ultimately only took home one for Outstanding Music Supervision at the Creative Arts Primetime Emmys.
You can find the full list of winners below.
While you won’t find anyone from Fallout down there, it’s okay. If season two is anywhere as good as season one it will have many opportunities to win more Emmys long after 2024. It’ll just be easier as long as Shōgun season two doesn’t air that same year. And also if no one forces The Bear to admit it is not a comedy.
