Favored shows like “Succession,” “The Bear,” “Beef,” and “Last Week Tonight With John Oliver” dominated the awards, while “Better Call Saul” went home empty-handed despite its 53 nominations over six seasons. However, there were still surprises, such as Niecy Nash-Betts’s passionate speech, Elton John achieving EGOT status, and Joan Collins’s timeless presence as a presenter.
Winners like Kieran Culkin, celebrating “Succession,” used their speeches for personal appeals, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach marked the Best comedy win for “The Bear” with a memorable kiss on his co-star Matty Matheson.
