Here are all the winners from the 2022 Emmy Awards

Television’s biggest has come and gone. With Saturday Night Live’s Kenan Thompson as our emcee, as the program sought to further improve its ratings as it returns to pre-pandemic form.
And, generally, it did feel like a return to form. There were no slaps to be had, only slightly-cringy choreographed openings and the most tepid of edgy jokes. HBO’s Succession topped the nominations with 25 award nods, picking up three, including Outstanding Drama Series. Nearly every lead cast member was up for an award, including Brian Cox, Jeremy Strong, Sarah Snook, Kieran Culkin, J. Smith Cameron, and Nicholas Braun, while Matthew Macfadyen took home Emmy gold for his portrayal of Tom Wambsgans. The drama still faced tough competition this year from Netflix’s Squid Game, which upset the HBO darling in more than one category.
In the comedy category, Ted Lasso largely came out on top, while newcomer sitcom Abbott Elementary managed to take home a couple of awards, reminding everyone that network TV still exists and can, in fact, be pretty great. When it comes to the limited series category, HBO’s The White Lotus cleaned house against (almost) everything Hulu had, including Dopesick, The Dropout, and Pam & Tommy.

Why the hell is Barry under comedy??
Has a show ever jumped categories before? Barry definitely started out as a dark comedy in seasons 1 and 2, but it has morphed into something beyond that, or maybe something that defies categorization.
Yeah, the category of not being recognized as one of the best shows on TV.
Barry is so over-rated.
Orange Is the New Black: first nominated as a comedy, then as a drama.
Well done!
It’s 50/50
Not the way most people count.
Because no matter how heavy and dark it gets, it always still manages to be funny as hell.
Having finally binged the season over the weekend, blame the Beignet King.
I’m so glad for Matthew Macfadyen because he was so, so good in Succession this past season. Goldstein’s win for Ted Lasso is a bigger surprise for me because I thought Roy (and the show overall) was better written in the first season. My vote would have gone to Henry Winkler, who blew the doors off of season 3 of Barry. Two actors that I was really pulling for but who I knew wouldn’t win: Himesh Patel and Natasha Rothwell. To me, both were the standout performances in their categories. Patel’s affecting work as Jivan in Station Eleven haunts me. And Rothwell was heartbreaking on White Lotus and felt more true than Jennifer Coolidge’s imo. I really wanted her to win.
I’m super bummed Patel didn’t win. He was amazing.
Station Eleven was a gift .. Thank you for helping me feel during some tough times.
Station Eleven should have gotten way more than just his nomination, too. It was one of my favorite things I watched last year. It is outstanding.
I wish the show had covered more of the early years right after the pandemic with him featured. It got a little plot-crazy later on, resulting in plot-armor on too many occasions.
I hate having to root against Succession so other deserving shows like BCS can win some Emmys, because its SO DAMNED GOOD.
It’s really hard! Succession really is just that damned good.I just think that the Emmy voters need to judge winners based on what they submit, and not on the reputation of the show. Succession deserves all the accolades, but Ted Lasso is coasting on goodwill. Plain and simple.
Yeah, typically, I’m not a fan of spin-offs and you can probably guess how I felt about Breaking Bad but Goddamn, BCS is THAT DAMN GOOD.
Ugh. I can’t believe Rhea didn’t win AGAIN.Look, I love Julia Garner’s Ruth, and it was a great performance, but nobody I saw this year gave what Rhea did with Kim Wexler.
I thought she should have been nominated for Lead Actress, rather than Supporting. Those few episodes towards the end aside, she seemed to have as much screen time as Odenkirk and commanded as much if not more of the audience’s attention and carried the series every bit as much as he did , and that’s saying something given how amazing Odenkirk was, as well. One of greatest series of all time and it goes out getting a huge shaft all-around.
I *think* they are still eligible for next year?
We’ve still got next year for the back half of the season, and that was some of Rhea’s best work.
You have to be worried though, especially since astoundingly enough, BCS has never won ANY emmy in its entire run.Some things are just completely inexplicable—-you’d think they’d snare at least a minor one.
It might end up like The Wire, all time great show that the Emmys just never showed any love. But I think it’ll probably be like The Americans, where they wait until the last possible second (next year) to shower the show with some awards (though I think Margo Martindale might have won prior to its last season). The Emmys are stupid like that sometimes. A show/actor is great, everyone sees its great, yet they pass it over until they know they can’t pass it over anymore.All I know is if Rhea and Bob don’t win next year, burn that award show to ground
Wow, did not know that about The Wire. Could’ve swore they at least won a couple.
BoJack Horseman pats the bench, “Join US.”
100% with you. We’re in an unfortunate place where there’s too much competition, and the Emmys have had a fierce love for HBO content of late. I still can’t believe Game of Thrones beat The Americans’ final season (to say nothing of Keri Russell being absolutely robbed).Plus, like it or not, cultural cache is huge. Succession is all over the zeitgeist. BCS never got anywhere close to the cultural saturation that Breaking Bad achieved, and that level of exposure certainly helps prospective winners have momentum.
Keri was up against stiff competition—-she had to take on Tatiana Maslany in one of the great performances anybody has ever had in TV ever.Orphan Black.I like Keri, but Tatiana absolutely deserved that Emmy. Just MHO.
No. Keri all the way.
Can’t agree there. What Tatiana did with Orphan Black is so far above what really anybody else has done in TV that I’ve seen in the past decade or so, Keri never really stood a chance.I’ve never seen anybody able to pull off what she did on that show.
I guess if that shtick impresses you, have fun. Keri managed to play a Russian playing an American who sometimes played a totally different woman. But sure, Tatiana did a totally unique and impossibly difficult job! /s
I can’t tell if the /s was for just the last sentence or the entire post.You say Keri was playing a Russian who was playing an American who played an entirely different woman.In one episode, Tatiana (Canadian) played a Russian clone who was pretending to be another one of her clones who was British. With her other distinct clones in the same scene helping her.But yeah, Keri playing a Russian agent undercover as American pretending to be another American is just as impressive. /s
Get behind Carol Burnett – she’ll lead the charge and punch it through for everybody.
She’s 89 – hopefully she’s nominated and can make it to next year’s ceremony. If not, she’ll definitely score the posthumous trophy.
If voter memory can hang on that long. Out of sight, out of mind, I suspect. If Succession is still airing, then the award will just go to Sarah Snook.
I’ve never been THAT impressed with Snook’s acting, but I think she’s at a disadvantage because they do a fair amount of extemporaneous riffing and I think the American accent gets in her way at those times. When she knows exactly what to say, in American terms off a script, she does okay. (I wouldn’t say Emmy-worthy, but fine nonetheless…) But when she needs to just banter I think she locks up a lot of time. I noticed a lot of eye-rolling and boring “uhhhs” with her at those times, but I didn’t know it was because the cast was winging that dialogue until a season or more in to the run of the show. That’s just not her thing.
Absolutely ridiculous! Who the hell watches Ozark?
I did. Never got into Better Call Saul. Ill give it another try someday. Also, who watches it or doesn’t doesn’t dictate the quality of the performance.
I watched all of it and then stopped about 5 episodes in to the final season when I realized I just didn’t care anymore. It was like running a marathon and then turning around about a mile from the finish line and walking home.
I watched a ton of Ozark, then burned out on it (there’s only so many times you can repeat the basic plot). I ended up skipping to the last episode or two just to see how it all ended just because. I will say this about Richard Thomas: I grew up on watching him playing John-boy Walton and it’s all kinds of fun to watch how good he is at playing an evil asshole.
Correct me if I’m wrong but the fact that BCS hasn’t won a single Emmy in 5 seasons is just baffling to me.I know it’s still eligible for next year but I wouldn’t be at all surprised, at this point, if shares the same WTF bench as BoJack Horseman.
I watch “Ted Lasso.”I like “Ted Lasso.”I’ll watch the upcoming season of “Ted Lasso.” I’ll probably like it fine.But it’s such standard fare that hits all the same old traditional beats it hardly deserves a nomination let alone a win. It’s like if “Coach” had won for Best Comedy in 1992. Another good/fine/standard fare-type show. But that’s it.It’s not as funny as “Curb.”It’s not as entertaining as “Maisel.”It’s not fresh like “Abbott.”Or as inventive as “Barry.”I don’t get it.
I’ve never watched it, but everything I’ve heard and the little bit I’ve seen of it is totally in line with your description.When I think of that show I think of the phrase, “Aw, shucks!” complete with a sideways swing of the arm.
Whereas Barry and Bill Hader are downright inventive, with a great supporting cast. But you know the Emmys. Play it safe, every time.
You say this like Hader hasn’t already won multiple Emmys for Barry.
It’s still ridiculous. Succession has won Emmys too, but it’s still been robbed before.
Yeah, an emotionally confused hitman protagonist struggling to move past his occupation is definitely breaking new ground.I like Barry but come the fuck on.
I agree with everything you said, except for the assertion that Abbott Elementary is “fresh.” It’s an Office clone with likable actors. Grown up Chris even gives the camera Jim looks. The show isn’t bad by any means—the cast really is great—but it’s not redefining the genre.
Every character except the wise, old teacher does the “Jim” thing.Out of morbid curiosity I counted the the number of times characters Jim the camera. between two commercial breaks the number well over 20.People seem to think looking at a camera is the funniest thing ever these days.
Come on, Ted Lasso has more substance than Coach. At its best, the series can be quite life-affirming, when things are at their worst. This was very pronounced in Season 1. Less so in S2, but still some strong stuff when it came to Ted’s therapy, and Nate’s emotional downfall. It may not have some things other comedies have, but other comedies don’t have some things this show has, and I think it very much deserves the nominations at least, if not the wins.
It does have more substance. But just about everything these days has more substance than 30 years ago (Are we that old?!). The bar has been raised.I was being a bit pithy comparing it to “Coach.” But “Ted Lasso” is standard fare, just like “Coach” was in its day. Not great/not terrible. Just very good but not groundbreaking.
It’s a low point for comedies in general. There aren’t a lot. And dramedy has taken overBut there is nothing that is better than Ted Lasso.Barry…. hasn’t been a comedy for a couple seasons.
Abbott… is a MUCH less funny The Office set in a school
Curb… is hilarious, but if your concern is substance, this isn’t the remedy
Hacks… is possibly a contender, but dramedy
Ms Maisel… is possibly a contender, but dramedy
Only Murders… meh
Shadows… is hilarious, but I understand why something so niche gets passed over.
The bar was raised (mostly by Norman Lear) back in the 70s.
Allow me a foreigner perspective here: “Ted Lasso” benefitted from 2 main factors.- It came out at the “right moment”. It run through the worst parts of the COVID-19 pandemy, a period where its uplifting positivity, even when being saccharine, connected with a lot of people;- No judgement here, but American audiences tend to love when one mixes concepts familiar to them with some “exotic” element. It keeps them confortable, in known territory, while also giving them something to feel curious about. So Ted Lasso had that “sports underdog overcoming difficulties” element so familiar to Americans, but in this case set up not only overseas (it helps that England isn’t too culturally different beyond the usual “cliches”), but with the soccer elements, a sport pretty much alien to many Americans. That’s what give it a huge edge over “Coach” and other sports shows.
I had the same feeling when Schitt’s Creek won every single award it possibly could a couple of year ago. It’s a fine show. I watched every episode and enjoyed it. But it’s ridiculous to me that it won not just all the awards (when The Good Place and What We Do In The Shadows especially were doing stellar, original work), but the most awards ever for any comedy.
Oh, ‘The Good Place.” I’m ready for (another) rewatch. But it’s hard to have on as background TV while I work because I get sucked in easily. I can have “West Wing” or “Boy Meets World” (don’t ask) on for hours and still get my work done. They’re like background music for me.
Definitely agree as far as Schitts Creek. Some great episodes here and there, but overall, its not as consistently good, smart, and witty as The Good Place and What We Do In The Shadows.
I think it deserved it for the first season just for being a totally unexpected yet funny and wonderful show. But I agree that this time around it should have gone to a more inventive show.
I think there are a lot of mee-maws and pep-peps who vote for the Emmys
and they would love it if they could vote for “Coach” as best comedy
series. If my 82 year-old father could vote for them, he would vote for
“Coach” and “Evening Shade” every single year.
So if Ted Lasso is like “Coach,” that explains why it won.
My 85 year old father would also vote for “Evening Shade”.
Comparing Ted Lasso to Coach is like comparing, Scrubs to ER. Yeah, they’re both about coaches.And, Abbott Elementary is the most over-rated comedy in ages. If you took away the “break the 4th wall”… joke?… of Jim-ing the camera you’d lose 4 minutes of runtime every episode.
#JusticeforRhea
Jesus Christ, who did Jason Sudeikis have to serve custody papers to in public to keep winning all these Emmys? It’s Modern Family all over again.
Do Emmy voters know what directing is? I genuinely love Ted Lasso but literally every single episode of Barry, Atlanta, and Only Murders in the Building is better directed than the best directed episode of Ted Lasso.
Emmy voters have latched on to Ted Lasso as The Next Best Thing in TV comedy. I think Abbott Elementary will be next. Stuff that really pushes the boundaries, like Barry? Nah.
What boundaries is Barry pushing?
What boundaries? Seriously. Tell me how Barry stands out from other tragic dramedies. Get over it ferchrissakes.
Ted Lasso is a fine show but it’s greatness is extremely overblown. Only Murders deserved more than that.
Only Murders would be openly mocked for being a 25 year old TV show being made today without the names attached.
Some cool wins for Squid Game. Still not down for the supposed Season 2 Netflix wants. The last episode alone showed that digging too deep into the concept just unravels it in bad ways.
Sounds like the John Wick Effect.
I enjoyed Squid Game but it succeeds on a collective whole. I didn’t find any particular aspect or character to be stellar. Most of the acting was pretty terrible, tbh. Fine for an Asian soap opera but little else.
“Winner: Matthew Macfayden, Succession”MacfaDYen. Seems counterintuitive, but that’s his name.
He probably hangs out with Dwyane Wade
Yo is 리유미 my girl? (I did spell Lee right? It is 리?) Is that the one who killed the main baddie in the glass one? The smart take no prisoners chick? The one who fucked in a toilet?Edit: Really? You gave the one to the one that’s literally the same character as the North Korean one? You gave it to Suicide Girl? What the heck bro, you should’ve given it to the best character in the show. Not North Korean Aubrey Plaza’s BFF. Yo this awards show sucks.
I did spell Lee right? It is 리?Possibly not interested, given the misidentification, but no. It’s 이, pronounced “ee”. I’m not sure why, but when it’s a name South Koreans commonly prefer to romanise it as “Lee”, even though there’s no “L” sound in the original.
Thank you yeah this is a reminder that Romanisation isn’t always the best way to pronounce Korean names.
So glad Murray Bartlett won for White Lotus – would have been thoroughly bummed (tee hee!) if he hadn’t! Also happy Stifler’s Mom won – her first Emmy! I think I’ll have her performance in the boat and ashes scene forever ingrained in my memory …
“Stifler’s Mom”? I think you mean Jodi the masseuse from Seinfeld.
I’ve watched most of those nominated series.
Just give everything to “Barry” and head to the after-parties.
I’m surprised you haven’t mentioned this yet. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/music/story/2022-09-12/rapper-pnb-rock-shot-at-l-a-restaurant
Ted Lasso winning over Barry in any fucking category is so fucking dumb I’m legit angry about it, which makes ME feel like an idiot, which is the exact same feeling I had after watching s2 of Ted Lasso.
Also Abbott Elementary is aggressively fine, why the fuck is it winning anything?
Darker =/= betterBarry is no more or less trope infested than Ted Lasso. Also, Barry isn’t a comedy.
Because not everyone thinks that tonally inconsistent hitman narratives are interesting? Just a guess.Sorry, a *fucking* guess.
I can tell I’m going to be annoyed with people coming at Abbott Elementary. It’s a wonderful showay. It’s full of heart but also funny as hell. It’s not just a Office clone. It’s a really good show on its own terms. I’m happy to see it break through and get some real love. Shery Lee Ralph is the rock that holds it all together.
It’s the definition of “meh”The next time you watch an episode… count how many of the “jokes” are a character looking at the camera.
Man, really bummed about the lack of Severence awards. It’s one of the few shows I’ve watched twice that not only held up but deepened the second viewing.
I’m at the point where if the show I’m pulling for doesn’t win I feel vindicated. Trust me when I say none of us should want to have the same opinions/tastes as the Emmy Award voting body.
The Barry stans need to seriously get some Kleenex and go cry themselves to sleep. You are, to quote the Coach, “Fucking embarrassing!!!”
