The first set of Emmy trophies (54, to be exact) were handed out Saturday night, giving awards watchers some interesting clues as to how the big races may shake out next Sunday.
Drama nomination leader and two-time champion Game of Thrones claimed seven wins including Fantasy/Sci-Fi Costumes, Production Design for a Narrative or Fantasy Series, and more. Defending champion The Handmaid’s Tale notched three wins in key categories, including Picture Editing and Guest Actress in a Drama Series for Samira Wiley. Guest Actor in a Drama Series went to This Is Us’ Ron Cephas Jones, with both winners having been nominated the previous year in the Supporting categories.
In the Comedy categories, the Guest Acting categories saw wins for a seasoned industry veteran alongside one of Hollywood’s hottest new rising stars, as Katt Williams and Tiffany Haddish took home the trophies for Guest Actor and Actress for Atlanta and Saturday Night Live, respectively. FX’s Atlanta and Amazon’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, thought by many to be the top two contenders for the Outstanding Comedy Series trophy, took home three awards each.
Black Mirror: USS Callister took home the top prize of Outstanding Television Movie, a second consecutive title in the category for the acclaimed science fiction anthology series. American Crime Story: The Assasination of Gianni Versace led all movies and miniseries with four wins, including Contemporary Costumes and Hairstyling. In other Program categories, Rick and Morty won Animated Program on its first nomination, while Robot Chicken claimed a third win in Short Form Animated Program. Alex Borstein won in Voice Over Performance for Family Guy, and will hope to repeat in the Comedy Supporting Actress category next Sunday.
