2026 Emmys Winners List (live Updates)

Static Media

The 78th Primetime Emmy Awards are here — on a Monday, no less — and host and "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" star Mariska Hargitay is leading us through the annual ceremony that celebrates the best of the year in television. Well, technically, it celebrates the best of the year in television regarding shows that are either made by American creatives or in collaboration with American studios (sorry, Canadian gem "Heated Rivalry") that aired between June 1, 2025 and May 31, 2026.

So who's winning the night's big awards? Will the year's best comedy go to the swan song of HBO's "Hacks," or will Apple TV's freshman horror comedy "Widow's Bay" reign supreme? Will the HBO Max hospital drama "The Pitt" hang on to its title for best drama, or will it be knocked out of the top spot? Will Matthew Rhys win at least one award, considering that he's nominated for two different acting roles? Keep reading to see the full list of 2026 Emmy winners.
