‘​The Studio’ and ‘​The Pitt’ Dominate the Emmys

With its wins, “The Studio” became the comedy series with the most Emmys ever for a single season.

‘The Studio’ won the Emmy for a comedy series.

Emmy Awards host Nate Bargatze shook up Sunday night’s ceremony—and created a cliffhanger comedy bit for the whole ceremony—by putting a financial penalty on long acceptance speeches.

‘​The Studio’ and ‘​The Pitt’ Dominate the Emmys

Genre-busting HBO Max medical show “The Pitt,” won best drama series, causing an upset by beating “Severance,” Apple TV+’s corporate dystopia story, which went into the night with more nominations than any series.

But Apple flexed with “The Studio.” The stress-inducing satire of the movie business was heaped with enough Hollywood glory to set Emmy records as it dominated the comedy categories.

Co-creator and lead actor Seth Rogen, who plays a hapless studio head, assured the industry audience that the skewering was all in fun, shouting, “Thank your executives!” as he accepted the award for best comedy series.

The Emmy for drama series went to ‘The Pitt.’

Netflix’s “Adolescence,” a bracing drama about teen rage, also had a big night, winning best limited series and nearly sweeping its other categories.

By the end of the evening, Bargatze’s ploy had mixed results on the speeches, but it eventually raised $350,000 for the Boys & Girls Club of America, he said.
