2022 Emmy Awards: Complete list of winners and nominees

The 74th Primetime Emmy Awards were held Monday evening, a shift from the award ceremony's usual spot on Sunday night due to opening week of the NFL season. Keenan Thompson of "Saturday Night Live" fame hosted the show, which was broadcast live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

"Succession" came into the night with 25 total nominations, the most of any show, and took home the award for outstanding drama series while Matthew Macfaden won the award for best supporting actor in a drama series. "Ted Lasso" snagged 20 nominations and won best comedy. "The White Lotus" was the top limited series, also with 20 nominations, and won best limited series, with several actors from the show also taking home awards.

On the comedy side, Quinta Brunson, the creator, writer and star of "Abbott Elementary," became the first Black woman to be nominated for three awards in the same year. She won for outstanding writing for a comedy series.
