You may experience a bit of time travel while watching the 2024 Emmy Awards. Honoring television shows released between June 2022 and May 2023, and voted on last August, the ceremony was delayed from its regular September date due to the SAG-AFTRA strike, and now arrives right in the thick of the film awards season. But, as we learned at the Golden Globes last week, there’s never really a wrong time to honor something like Succession or The Bear—so on we go!
While the winners of the biggest awards ceremony in television were meant to be announced way back in September, due to the Hollywood writers and actors strikes, the Emmys were pushed back from their original slot to January.
This meant that it felt a bit like we were going back in time… Hulu’s high-octane kitchen drama The Bear, for example, which has now run for two seasons, has 13 nominations. But all the nods were for its first season, which was released in June 2022, rather than for its sublime second run, which has now been out for nearly seven months. The 75th Emmy Awards was a great success.
The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards bore significant importance for Hollywood, occurring nearly four months later than originally planned due to strikes involving both actors and writers.
The ceremony was broadcast from the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles. In India, the award ceremony was live-streamed on Lionsgate Play, starting at 6.30 am on January 16.
Anthony Anderson hosted the ceremony and frequently incorporated his mother into comedy routines. She stood up whenever an acceptance speech threatened to run too long.
Jesse Armstrong’s satirical comedy-drama series Succession was named the Best Drama Series at the 75th Emmy Awards, 2024. The show’s Kieran Culkin and Sarah Snook bagged the awards for Outstanding Lead Actor and Actress, respectively, in a Drama Series. Succession won six awards at the ceremony after it entered the show with 27 nominations for its final season.
