The 9 best moments at the 2024 Emmys — and the 5 worst
The 75th annual Primetime Emmy Awards finally happened on Monday night after a months-long delay due to the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/why-sag-aftra-actors-wga-writers-unions-strike-hollywood">WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes</a>. And for the most part, they pulled through.
- The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards took place on Monday.
- "Succession," "The Bear," and "Beef" led wins during the evening.
- Here were some highlights and lowlights from the show.
Shows like "Succession," "The Bear," and "Beef" each took home multiple major awards, with their stars like Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook, Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri, Ali Wong, and Steven Yeun getting plenty of love from the Television Academy.
And as a production, the Emmys were generally smooth, celebrating television through reunions of shows like "Cheers," "Grey's Anatomy," and "Martin." Host Anthony Anderson even enlisted his mother, Doris Bowman, to cut winners off with signs from the audience, rather than the traditional play-off music.
Still, there were some specific highlights, as well as a few disappointing moments. Here were the best and worst bits of the show.
Highlight: Niecy Nash-Betts' speech
Highlight: Pedro Pascal and Kieran Culkin's ongoing faux feud
Lowlight: 'Better Call Saul' was completely shut out once again
Highlight: The 'Ally McBeal' and 'Cheers' cast reunions
Highlight: Green goblin Princess Poppy stole the show on the red carpet
Highlight: Christina Applegates Emmys return
