The Mandalorian was the big winner of night three of the Creative Arts Emmys Awards, taking home five trophies in the scripted categories for cinematography, sound editing, sound mixing, production design and visual effects. They are the first Emmy wins ever for Disney+, which launched last November.

HBO’s Watchmen also fared well with four wins, for cinematography, sound mixing, picture editing and fantasy/sci-fi costumes. Watchmen is the most-nominated show overall, with 26.

HBO’s Succession bested Netflix’s Ozark and The Mandalorian in the highly competitive picture editing for a drama series category, which can be a strong bellwether for a drama series win. Pop’s One Day at a Time won its second Emmy for multi-camera picture editing and Netflix’s The Ranch won its second multi-cam cinematography award.

Some firsts and runs tonight: black-ish won their very first Emmy ever, for hairstyling. Stranger Things won its third sound editing Emmy, The Crown won its third costume design award and The Handmaid’s Tale won production design for the fourth year in a row.

Creative Arts Emmy Awards: Night One – ‘Apollo 11’ leads Reality and Non-Fiction winners

The Mandalorian is now the Emmy leader with its five wins from tonight, with RuPaul’s Drag Race (from night one and night two) and Watchmen with four Emmys, followed by Saturday Night Live and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. All have a chance to increase those numbers on the last night of the Creative Arts Emmys before the Primetime Emmys on Sunday.

Tonight’s presenters included Rose Byrne, Bobby Cannavale, Laverne Cox, Giancarlo Esposito, Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Hilarie Burton Morgan, Justin H. Min and Monica Raymund.

The show repeated the same pieces from night one and night two: the In Memoriam and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar introducing a piece on the importance of inclusive representation in the television making process as well as Byer’s COVIS-compliant fake awards.

Thursday night will bring the second part of the scripted programming awards including the music categories, short form and casting.

Presenters for the five nights include Monica Aldama (Cheer), Jeff Bridges (The Old Man), Rose Byrne (Mrs. America), Bobby Cannavale (Homecoming), Laverne Cox (Orange Is the New Black), Desus Nice & The Kid Mero (Desus & Mero), Giancarlo Esposito (The Mandalorian; Better Call Saul), Brandee Evans (P-Valley), Chris Hardwick (The Wall; The Talking Dead), Jerry Harris (Cheer), Thomas Lennon (Reno 911), Daryl Mitchell (NCIS: New Orleans), Hilarie Burton Morgan (Friday Night In With The Morgans), Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Friday Night In With The Morgans; The Walking Dead), Erin Moriarty (The Boys), Lamorne Morris (Woke), Leslie Odom Jr. (Central Park), Jeremy Pope (Hollywood), Issa Rae (A Black Lady Sketch Show; Insecure), Monica Raymund (Hightown), Drew Scott (Property Brothers) and Wanda Sykes (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel).
