We officially have our winners from the 2022 Emmy Awards, with some of the best of TV, including Ted Lasso and Succession, winning big.
The awards ceremony took place at the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles, with celebs descending on the event to celebrate a year in TV.
And it was a night to remember!
Succession scooped up the outstanding drama series award, while Ted Lasso won in the outstanding comedy category.
Squid Game’s Lee Jung-jae made history by winning the lead actor in a drama series award, and becoming the first Asian actor ever to win in the category.
He said during his speech: ‘Thank you to the Television Academy, thank you to Netflix and thank you to the director for making realistic problems we all face come to life so creatively on the screen with a great script. Thank you, Squid Game team. Thank you to everyone watching in Korea.’

Meanwhile, Zendaya scooped up another win for her role in Euphoria, with the lead actress in a drama gong.
She thanked her loved ones before going on to pay tribute to anyone suffering from addiction, adding: ‘My greatest wish for Euphoria was that it could help heal people.
‘I just want to say thank you to everyone who has shared their story with me. I want you to know that anyone who has loved a Rue or feels like they are a Rue, I want you to know I’m so grateful for your stories and I carry them with me, and I carry them with her.’
Lizzo won her first Emmy for her competition program Watch Out for the Big Grrrls, getting tearful in her speech.

‘The trophy is nice, but my emotion is for these people who are on this stage with me. The stories that they share are not that unique. They just don’t get the platform. Telling stories, let’s tell more stories,’ she said.
‘When I was a little girl, all I wanted was to see me in the media. Someone fat like me, Black like me, beautiful like me.’
Among the winners for Ted Lasso was Brett Goldstein, who won for supporting actor in a comedy series – and once again swore his way through his speech.

‘I’m really good at trying not to swear,’ the double Emmy winner said. ‘Last time I was here, I was told not to swear and I did and I’m sorry but it meant the feed got cut back home in the U.K. so my family never got to hear me say this,’ he said.
‘So thank you for this second chance’ before dropping a swear word. He joked: ‘I’m so sorry … thank you very much. Thank you.’
Abbott Elementary’s Sheryl Lee Ralph gave a speech to remember after winning for supporting actress in a comedy series, breaking into song. Some online even dubbed it the ‘greatest Emmy speech of all time’.
Also among the winners were Amanda Seyfried, Jennifer Coolidge, Matthew Macfadyen, and Michael Keaton.
