“Succession” triumphed again as HBO’ feuding media dynasty took best drama honors for its final season at the 75th Emmy Awards Monday night, the third time the show has claimed television’s most prestigious prize.
“It was a great sadness to end the show, but it was a great pleasure to do it,” creator Jesse Armstrong said.
Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook and Matthew Macfadyen won acting trophies for their roles as part of the wealthy but miserable Roy family.
“You said maybe, if I win!” Culkin said to his wife, Jazz Charton.
Snook, also a first-time winner, recognized Armstrong, her co-stars and her parents as she accepted best actress in a drama.
Hulu’s “The Bear,” the story of a fine-dining chef trying to turn around his family’s Chicago sandwich shop, landed six awards, including best comedy series.
“I am so proud, so full of gratitude, to be standing in front of you all,” said Jeremy Allen White, who plays chef Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto. “I love the show so much.”
Jennifer Coolidge, who won her second supporting actress honor for playing a loopy vacationer on limited series “The White Lotus,” took the opportunity to thank “all of the evil gays,” referring to characters on the show involved in a murder plot.
“Everyone having fun at the chocolate Emmys tonight? We are killing it tonight!” said host and former “Black-ish” star Anthony Anderson.
