Julianne Nicholson (Hacks) and Bryan Cranston (The Studio), along with Shawn Hatosy (The Pitt) and Merritt Wever (Severance) were among the winners during night one of the Creative Arts Emmy Awards at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles.
Emmys were also given to Rebel Ridge for TV Movie, Arcane for Outstanding Animation, and to The Penguin for hairstyling, costumes, prosthetic makeup, visual effects, sound editing and sound mixing. Andor also racked up trophies for costumes, production design, picture editing and special visual effects.
Maya Rudolph kicked off night one by saying, “This is the real Emmys. This is the Emmys for the people who make all the magic happen … this is a room full of talented baddies.”
One of the highlights of the night was when Bridgerton took the Emmy for Outstanding Costumes and winner John Walter Glaser’s pants kept falling down (but not to his knees, mercifully). The Daily Show‘s Desi Lydic, who won in the Performer in a Short Form Comedy category, admitted to having to watch “too much Fox News” to win the award. She went on to thank “the Deep State” TV Academy.
And Hacks‘ Robby Hoffman vaped on stage before announcing the winner for cinematography.
The Creative Arts Emmys will continue Sunday with an additional 49 statues to be distributed in the writing, casting, makeup and picture editing categories.
The Creative Arts Emmys won’t air live, but they are set to run on FXX Saturday, Sept. 13 at 8 p.m. ET and PT, the night before the Primetime Emmys. The Creative Arts Emmys will also be available to stream on Hulu until Oct. 7.
