That’s a wrap on Television’s most prestigious awards, the Emmys in LA tonight
Royal drama “The Crown” was last year’s big winner, but will miss an award this year
Filming on the latest series was put on pause “as a mark of respect”
Succession was the favourite to replace it in the hotly-contested best drama category, and it pulled through.
Hilarious dig at royalty
Succession Writer Jesse Armstrong even joked about King Charles the third after winning Best Drama Series
The top categories saw many return winners, in Succession, Ted Lasso, Zendaya and Jean Smart.
But it was the Saturday Night Live” emcee turned Emmy’s host who’s dig at Leo DiCaprio stole the show.
The White Lotus emerged as the big winner too, sweeping best supporting actor and actress.
Outstanding Lead Actress went to Zendaya for Euphoria.
Meanwhile, the Ted Lasso folks had another very good night, picking up the award for Outstanding Comedy Series for the second year in a row.
Historic moment
Netflix sensation Squid Game made history, with its lead actor scoring an emmy, becoming the first actor from a non-English language series to win at the awards.
Winner of best speech
But the speech everyone is talking about is from Sheryl Lee Ralph, who won best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series
Viral moment
And when it came to funny moments… this takes the cake.
This is the footage going viral as we speak, Jennifer Coolidge deciding to dance when the Emmys attempted to play her off is a truly perfect moment.
