Emmy Awards 2022

The 2022 Emmys handed out awards to Succession, Squid Game, Abbott Elementary, The White Lotus, Ted Lasso, Lizzo's Here's To The Big Grrrls and others.

Jean Smart won for Hacks for lead actress in a comedy series for the second year in a row. It's more an observation of public reaction than of the show itself, but standards seem to have changed for when a show has won "too much." Even a second or third win can seem rote by now, so bring on the new contenders, and we'll be glad to see them. Zendaya, who won the award for outstanding lead actress in a drama series for Euphoria two years ago, won again. Even the great Jean Smart, beloved by so many over such a tremendous career and absolutely marvelous on Hacks, might not have been the first choice of many people. The Emmys are starting to have an enviable problem: Even when people disagree with the outcome of a contest, it might be less that a show is undeserving and more that there's simply something else that deserves a shot in a stacked category. Lee Jung-jae won lead actor in a drama series for Squid Game, the first Asian man to ever be so honored. Amanda Seyfried took lead actress for The Dropout and Michael Keaton won for lead actor in Dopesick. Plus, Ted Lasso actors Jason Sudeikis and Brett Goldstein won again in the lead and supporting categories. Perhaps the nicest surprise was Lizzo's Watch Out For The Big Grrrls, which broke RuPaul's Drag Race streak of four wins in the reality competition category. But there were also great speeches and encouraging wins, and we're here to look at five takeaways from the ceremony as a whole. At the same time winners fought for spare seconds, dull montages that were little more than "here are some TV shows" were allowed to linger, as were scripted bits that seemed less satisfying than the cut-off speeches, even when those sketches were performed by able comedians like host Kenan Thompson and the very funny Bowen Yang.

There’s no time to think about it, we have to get to the next thing, and the next thing, and the next.

A key to good comedy is having a distinctive voice. Sheryl Lee Ralph, the former “Dreamgirls” actress who won best supporting comedy actress for “Abbott ...

“The Amazing Race” has won 10 times, “The Voice” and “RuPaul’s Drag Race” each four times, and no show had won the category in its first season. “The White Lotus,” the hit HBO series that skewered the entitled behavior of wealthy vacationers, scooped up five Primetime Emmys, including the award for best limited series. The series, Netflix’s most watched new series ever, according to the streamer, was also up for the Emmy for best drama, an award “Succession” ultimately won. Both “Barry” and “What We Do in the Shadows,” two of TV’s best comedies, got shut out. The point of the show is the speeches! The show played off engaging winners like Quinta Brunson and Jennifer Coolidge while making plenty of time for inane “copaganda” segments and slow bits that went nowhere. This year’s broadcast included a massive Kia ad, smuggled in under the guise of a sketch about TV dialogue. Of its seven total nominations, one was for best comedy; had “Abbott” won, it would have been the first network comedy to do so since “Modern Family” in 2014. The rhythm of the show was weirdly off. Based on its performance in its first time out, “Abbott” should be a top Emmy contender for years to come. There was also, in the success of series like “Abbott Elementary,” evidence that the broadcasters still have some Emmy relevance left in them, even as prestige cable and streaming services claimed the biggest prizes. Along the way, there was the usual array of leaden gags, shameless commercialism and genuinely poignant moments that transcended all the award-show contrivance.

The Television Academy honored a broadcast comedy and a foreign-language upstart, but mostly brought a parade of familiar faces to the stage.

[ Jean Smart](https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/jean-smart-jokes-rachel-brosnahan-tried-to-sabotage-emmy-win-1234591449/) from Hacks was a repeat winner. [Squid Game](https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/squid-game-emmy-wins-history-1234588988/) director Hwang Dong-hyuk beating former winner Jason Bateman from Ozark, presumed favorite [Ben Stiller from Severance](https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/severance-finale-ben-stiller-interview-1330692/), Yellowjackets pilot director Karyn Kusama, and three different Succession directors for the drama directing prize. [Dopesick](https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-reviews/dopesick-review-1236351/) star Michael Keaton and [The White Lotus](https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-reviews/white-lotus-review-1190058/) scene stealer Murray Bartlett got the evening off to a nice start. Or they could have gone both new and old simultaneously, by honoring either Steve Martin (whose last Emmy win was 53 years ago, as a writer on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour) or Martin Short for the first season of Only Murders in the Building. [Euphoria star Zendaya](https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-reviews/euphoria-season-2-review-1278174/) won her second award for the series after sitting out last year’s ceremony while the high school drama was on a long hiatus. Dropout lead Amanda Seyfried — by far the best example of this spring’s Movie Stars Play Infamous Real People In Prestige Miniseries boom — was a worthy winner and gave a sincere and pithy speech, and [Lizzo](https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/lizzo-wins-first-emmy-award-watch-out-for-the-big-grrrls-1234590634/) brought herself and many people in the crowd to tears talking about how she grew up desperately wanting to see “someone fat like me, Black like me, beautiful like me” on television. (And nobody in the Academy seemed to care that the (*) Initially, it seemed as if the music only kicked in when someone past their allotted time was reading off a list of names. But mostly what made it great is that Sheryl Lee Ralph is great on that show and in life, and her response to winning — beating reigning champ [Hannah Waddingham](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/hannah-waddingham-emmy-supporting-actress-comedy-win-ted-lasso-1235015360/) and several other Ted Lasso actresses — was an award-worthy spectacle in and of itself. She was frozen at first, and eventually costar Tyler James Williams helped steer her to the stage, where she again stood silent for what seemed like an eternity, especially on a night when so many other winners seemed terrified of the clock. The easiest way to win an Emmy is to have already won an Emmy, and the last few Emmy ceremonies were rendered tedious by a handful of shows hoovering up every trophy in sight. The telecast itself was a pretty dire production as usual, with even Thompson’s trademark gameness failing to elevate most of the dumb material he was given, and with lots of other bad choices in terms of comedy sketches or presentations.

Matthew Macfadyen was honored for his supporting role in “Succession,” for which he was previously nominated in 2020, but did not land the win. On the actor side, the honors were given to Michael Keaton for Hulu’s “Dopesick” and Murray Bartlett for his supporting role in HBO’s “The White Lotus.”

Michael Keaton took home the award for best actor in a limited or anthology series or movie for his role playing Dr. Tune in to NBC to catch the show live. The roster of shows vying for top honors at this year’s Emmy Awards includes plenty of familiar names, including previous champions like “The Marvelous Mrs. The second installment is scheduled to debut in October.

Undeniably the most sublime of all was [Ralph’s acceptance speech](https://www.vulture.com/2022/09/emmys-2022-sheryl-lee-ralph-sings-acceptance-speech.html), when she launched into “Endangered Species,” using every molecule of oxygen in her lungs to celebrate her first Emmy win after years of working on the stage and screen. The rare time Zedd played something perfectly evocative of the past year in TV — Kate Bush’s [“Running Up That Hill”](https://www.vulture.com/tags/running-up-that-hill/) — it came during a moment that had absolutely nothing to do with Stranger Things. It was emotional, inspirational, the sort of spontaneous expression that makes you appreciate what it’s like to watch a talent be overtaken by their gift on live television. In other words, the Emmys felt different and the same, filled with familiar characters as well as shout-outs to shows that some people didn’t even know existed. And while a lot of the major winners were predictable, this year’s awards also reflected the wide spectrum of places to find good television. There was a sense that the voters, as well as the producers, had decided to try some things. [Elaborately dressed](https://www.vulture.com/2022/09/emmys-red-carpet-2022-photos.html) actors and creators accepted trophies, some of them well deserved (Sheryl Lee Ralph!), some of them less so (a directing award for a Ted Lasso episode instead of that episode of Barry with the motorcycle chase?). These served as reminders that, as much as television is about great storytelling and allowing audiences to feel seen, it’s also being made in an environment where every network and streaming conglomerate is more desperate than ever for money and eyeballs. [A lot of those trophies](https://www.vulture.com/2022/09/emmys-2022-winners-full-list.html) went to shows that have won before — Ted Lasso, Succession, Last Week Tonight With John Oliver (which nabbed Outstanding Variety Talk Series for the seventh consecutive year), and Saturday Night Live (named Outstanding Variety Sketch Series for the sixth year in a row). After a largely virtual ceremony in 2020 and one held half-indoors and half-outdoors because of a rise in COVID-19 cases in 2021, this was the first “normal” Emmy Awards in three years. And it was normal in a lot of ways. Yeah, [the Emmys don’t make sense sometimes](https://www.vulture.com/2022/07/emmy-award-nominations-limited-series-limitations.html).

Matthew Macfadyen won best supporting actor in a drama for “Succession,” and Julia Garner won best supporting actress in a drama for “Ozark.

For this year’s race, HBO’s “Succession” is the favorite for best drama, with competition from Netflix’s “Squid Game” and the Apple TV+ rookie series, “Severance.” “Ted Lasso” is looking to repeat in best comedy with ABC’s “Abbott Elementary” and Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building” hoping to pull off an upset. Or can Laura Linney (“Ozark”), a four-time Emmy winner, or Melanie Lynskey, a first-time nominee for “Yellowjackets,” put a stop to it? The second season of “Only Murders” streamed during the Emmy voting period, keeping it fresh in the minds of Emmy voters. Emmy producers of last year’s show made official what everyone already knew: The best limited series award is now right up there with the one for best drama as the most prestigious in television. “TV is all we have,” he added. Agree about both of those — and I love that both of them nod to old Hollywood icons and traditions in their gowns. Not only does “Abbott Elementary” get its first Emmy but it’s the right one: Sheryl Lee Ralph brings her character instantly to life. The first was Jackée Harry, who won for her role in the NBC sitcom “227” in 1987. The first was Jackée Harry, who won in 1987 for her role in the NBC sitcom “227.” “I am an endangered species,” sang Ralph, who is also a Broadway performer, “but I sing no victim’s song.

Held on Monday, September 17, 2018, on NBC, the Lorne Michaels-produced event hosted by SNL‘s Michael Che and Colin Jost featured appearances from Thompson and John Legend, like this year. The Cedric the Entertainer-fronted show saw the 2021 Emmys bop up from the then-all-time low of the 6.4 million who watched the semi-virtual 2020 shindig on ABC. Here in the City of Angels, there was a bit less drama and more déjà vu with HBO’s Succession, Euphoria’s Zendaya, and AppleTV+’s Ted Lasso scoring big Emmy wins for the second year in a row. There was a white-knuckle 17-16 win for the Seattle Seahawks over former teammate Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos in the Emerald City.

Succession, Ted Lasso and The White Lotus picked up major awards. Here's the complete list of 74th Emmy Award winners.

Zendaya is also primed to make history again: In 2020, the actor and singer became the youngest person ever to win a Best Actress Emmy at 24. As for Stranger Things, it stands much more of a chance in the Creative Arts categories, including special effects. Last year, The Crown swept the seven major categories, including winning best drama. All that being said, seven other shows are in the running, including the HBO Max standout Hacks and Hulu's buzzy series Only Murders in the Building. With 20 nods, the series about an optimistic American coach who heads an English soccer team is the most nominated of the best comedy contenders. Some very funny series are competing for best comedy at the 74th Emmy Awards. As is Toheeb Jimoh, a nominee in the same category who plays the lovable Sam Obisanya. She could take home the award again this year. The feel-good Apple TV Plus show nabbed 20 nominations this time around, including best comedy. Squid Game already made history as the first non-English nominee to be nominated for best drama. An in memoriam segment just played, set to a live performance of the song Pieces by John Legend. HBO's lauded series grabbed three Emmys in total (four including Creative Arts Emmys), despite leading the pack with 25 nominations.

No, the award show wasn't sequined themed, though the red carpet may have convinced you otherwise.

Coming in the form of overskirts starting at the waist, split up on separate shoulder blades, or tied around the neck to turn the wearer into a sort of fashionable Wonder Woman off-duty, they all had the effect of adding strength and glamour to the looks on which they were attached.
