The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards Ceremony took place at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, USA. It was no surprise that “Succession”, “The Bear” and “Beef” collected awards in many categories.
The Primetime Emmy Awards Ceremony, whose candidate list was announced in July last year, was published last night due to the Hollywood strike. The strike, initiated by screenwriters and including actors in Hollywood, where the heart of the film and TV series industry beats, lasted for about five months and ended in September.
IT HAPPENED TO KENDALL AGAIN: “SUCCESSION”
“Succession”, which made the audience jump with its twists and turns in the last final season and received 27 nominations in various categories at the Emmy Awards; It collected awards in the Best Drama Series, Best Screenplay, Best Director, Best Actor, Actress and Best Supporting Actor categories.
Like the Golden Globes and Critics Choices, Kieran Culkin, who starred in the last season with the character of Roman Roy, the younger brother whose chin is even lower than all the characters, took the Best Actor award under his arm. Matthew Macfedyen also won the first Emmy of his career in the Best Supporting Actor category for his role as the family’s son-in-law, Tom Wambsgans.
PASCAL’S REVENGE WAS PAINFUL
The main rival of “The Last of Us”, Pedro Pascal, said to Culkin, “Do you know what happened to my shoulder? “Kieran beat me to death,” he said, introducing the candidates. So, while accepting Culkin’s award at the Golden Globes last week, he said to Pascal, “Suck it, Pedro!” He took revenge for the moment he said.
Sarah Snook, who played the only daughter of the family, Shiv Roy, in “Succession” was the undisputed candidate in the Best Actress (Drama) category. (Bella Ramsay from “The Last of Us” was not given much of a chance in this category anyway.) It was no surprise that she received the award. This year is his year… While Mark Mylod received the award in the Best Director category for “Succession”, the series’ creator Jesse Armstrong received the Best Screenplay award.
“YES CHEF!” A SUCCESS WE EXPLAIN: “THE BEAR”
“The Bear”, which we could never understand being in the Best Comedy Series category, also made a splash at the Emmys. “The Bear”, which tells the story of a talented chef’s new and challenging life, which begins when he leaves his career in a luxury restaurant and takes over his family’s run-down restaurant, where fights and noise are full, was nominated for the Emmy Awards with its first season. The production, which won the Golden Globes with its second season, also won the Emmy Awards with its first season eight days later.
“Yes Chef!” Jeremy Allen White, we exclaimed, won the Best Comedy Actor category.
Ayo Edebiri won Best Supporting Actress and Ebon Moss-Bachrach won Best Supporting Actor, making “The Bear” the star of the category. Ebon Moss-Bachrach’s lips pressed against famous chef and actor Matthey Matheson’s speech caused screams in the hall. Allen-White, Edebiri and Moss-Bachrach were nominated for Emmys for the first time.
We can say that we were pleased that “Ted Lasso”, which collected awards for two years and failed to deliver as expected with its final season, did not receive any more awards. However, we are wondering why HBO’s sweet and light series “Somebody Somewhere” did not receive any nominations in this category and why it was so ignored.
EMMY AWARDS HIGHLIGHTS:
“Beef,” “White Lotus” and “Abbott Elementary.”
The mini series “Beef”, which also shined at the Golden Globes, also made a show of its strength at the Emmys. Steven Yeun and Ali Wong became the first Asian-American actors to win Emmys in their respective categories. Yeun won Best Actor and Wong won Best Actress in the miniseries. The series’ creator, Lee Sung, won Emmy awards for Best Screenplay and Best Director. Thus, “Beef” won a total of 8 Emmy awards. (It would be a real surprise if “Fleishman Is In Trouble”, one of the best of 2023, received an award in this category.)
The winner of the award for Best Comedy Actress was Quinta Brunson for “Abbott Elementary.” Brunson became the first black woman to win this award in 40 years. Previously, the first black actress to receive an award in this category was Isabel Sanford from “The Jeffersons” in 1981.
Another black actress who received an award at the night was Niecy Nash-Betts, who won the Best Supporting Actress award in a miniseries for “Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.” In the series, Nash-Betts played Glenda Cleveland, Dahmer’s neighbor who was ignored by the police. While accepting her award, the actress said, “I accept it on behalf of all black women whose names are unheard but have been subjected to excessive police surveillance. My job as an artist is to tell the truth, and baby, I’ll do it until I die!” she said.
It was disappointing that Jennifer Coolidge received the Emmy award in the Best Supporting Actress (Drama) category for “The White Lotus”, which we could not understand why it was considered a drama. The favorite in this category was Elizabeth Debicki for her role as Princess Diana in “The Crown.” Rhea Seehorn from “Better Call Saul” could also be given a chance in this category.
Let’s see the productions that received the most awards in all categories: “The Bear” (10), “Beef” (8), “The Last of Us” (8), “Succession” (6), “Welcome to Wrexham” (5). , “The White Lotus” (5), “Still: A Michael J.Fox Movie” (4), “Wednesday” (4).
