The 76th Emmy Awards celebrated television’s biggest achievements on Sunday night in Los Angeles, with FX’s “Shogun” making history by winning 18 awards—the most ever won by a series in a single season. The Japanese epic claimed top honors for Outstanding Drama Series, with Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai taking home the awards for Lead Actor and Lead Actress in a Drama Series, respectively.

The night also saw a surprise in the comedy category as HBO’s “Hacks” took the prize for Outstanding Comedy Series, beating out fan-favorite “The Bear.” Jean Smart’s performance in “Hacks” earned her the Lead Actress in a Comedy award, while Jeremy Allen White of “The Bear” secured the Lead Actor prize.

In the limited series category, Netflix’s word-of-mouth sensation “Baby Reindeer” won for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series. Richard Gadd’s portrayal in “Baby Reindeer” earned him the award for Lead Actor in a Limited Series, while Jodie Foster won Lead Actress for her role in “True Detective: Night Country.”

Supporting role winners included Billy Crudup (“The Morning Show”) and Elizabeth Debicki (“The Crown”) in drama, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Liza Colon-Zayas from “The Bear” for comedy. “Baby Reindeer” also saw Jessica Gunning win for Supporting Actress in a Limited Series, while Lamorne Morris took Supporting Actor for “Fargo.”
