2018 Emmy Awards list of winners
The 2018 Primetime Emmy Awards wrapped Monday night. Hollywood actors gathered at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles for TV's biggest night. The 70th edition of the Primetime Emmy Awards show was hosted by Michael Che and Colin Jost.
Henry Winkler won the first award of the night. The "Barry" actor said in a fiery acceptance speech, "I only have 37 seconds; I wrote this 43 years ago. Can I just say, Skip Brittenham said to me a long time ago, 'If you stay long enough, the chips come to you.' " Winkler went on to thank his colleagues and loved ones in an exuberant acceptance speech.
During director Glenn Weiss' acceptance speech for best director for variety special, he said his mother had died two weeks ago and launched into an epic marriage proposal. "You wonder why I don't like to call you my girlfriend? Because I want to call you my wife," he said to cheers from the audience.
