Congratulations to legend Norman Lear, who became the oldest Emmy winner in history tonight, at age 97
Yes, Game of Thrones won 10 Creative Arts Emmys over the last two nights, but you know what? There are way too many Emmy categories for me to be listing all the winners, so because GoT’s wins were all in very technical awards (costumes, sound, visual effects, etc.), I did not list them here, as I restrained my post to the bigger trophies handed out tonight. As such, RuPaul took the best host award again, Leaving Neverland won Best Documentary special, and Hannah Gadsby took home a writing win for Nanette (yay!). On a side note, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel also cleaned up in technical awards as well as the guest acting wins, so that show could very well be on its way to a second comedy series award next week (annoying, since I’d prefer Barry).
