The 2024 Emmys took place on Sunday (September 15) night, with controversial Netflix show Baby Reindeer, kitchen drama The Bear and historical Japan-set series Shōgun all winning big.
The three-hour ceremony took place at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The broadcast is now available to watch on Hulu.
This year’s event was hosted for the first time by father-son duo Eugene and Dan Levy, who co-created and starred in the hit series Schitt’s Creek.
“We’re going to keep it light and bright,” Dan Levy told the Los Angeles Times, while his father added: “You’re setting a tone, and it’s our tone. It is what it is.
“It’s kind of tricky when you’re in the weeds, but ultimately we have to be ourselves and go with what we think is funny.”
Awards presenters will included Hollywood legend and Mary Poppins star Dick Van Dyke, 97, along with Allison Janney, Martin Sheen, Matt Bomer, Lily Gladstone and Kristen Wiig.

COMMENT: Are we witnessing the death of ‘distinctive’ British TV?
ITV had a huge hit with the powerful real-life drama ‘Mr Bates vs The Post Office’ back in January, but the broadcaster believes that it’s getting harder and harder to make ‘very distinctively British’ shows. Katie Rosseinsky explores why series like this might be a dying breed.

Eugene Levy: ‘I’m not ruling anything out – including retirement’
The Canadian comedian made his name playing the hapless dad in the raunchy 1999 comedy ‘American Pie’, and recently won a whole new fanbase with the Emmy award-winning sitcom ‘Schitt’s Creek’. In this interview from March 2024, as he returns to once again potter around Europe in the Apple travelogue show ‘The Reluctant Traveller’, he tells Annabel Nugent why comedy was more macho in the 1970s, why he hates leaving home, and why retirement is on the table
