Last night, Apple TV+ scored a record-breaking 22 wins at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Comedy Series for The Studio, which dominated as the most-winning series overall this year and the most-winning freshman comedy in history — setting a new record with 13 wins overall. Global phenomenon Severance led as this year’s most-winning drama with eight wins, including Outstanding Lead Actress (Britt Lower) and Outstanding Supporting Actor (Tramell Tillman), while hit spy drama Slow Horses earned a win for Outstanding Directing for a Drama.
“What an unforgettable, record-setting night for Seth, Evan, and The Studio creative team,” said Zack Van Amburg, Apple’s head of Worldwide Video, in a statement. “It has meant the world to all of us at Apple to watch fans embrace this series, alongside the year’s most-celebrated drama, Severance, and the acclaimed Slow Horses. We are so appreciative of the Television Academy and applaud all of these artists who have shown the power of storytelling to bring people together.”
“It’s an incredible honor to see this milestone for The Studio,” said Jamie Erlicht, Apple’s head of Worldwide Video. “Tonight’s wins — from Seth and Evan’s sharp comedy, to Britt and Tramell’s powerful work on Severance — show how great stories connect with audiences everywhere. Huge congratulations to all of tonight’s nominees and winners. Your creativity keeps us inspired.”
In addition to Outstanding Comedy Series, freshman comedy The Studio scored Outstanding Lead Actor (Seth Rogen), Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, and Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series. This is in addition to the previously announced wins for Outstanding Guest Actor (Bryan Cranston), Outstanding Production Design, Outstanding Casting for a Comedy Series, Outstanding Cinematography for a Series (Half-Hour), Outstanding Contemporary Costumes, Outstanding Picture Editing for a Single Camera Comedy Series, Outstanding Music Supervision, Outstanding Sound Editing for a Comedy or Drama (Half-Hour), and Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Comedy or Drama (Half-Hour).
In its celebrated sophomore season, Severance scored eight Emmy Awards, with star Tramell Tillman nabbing his first Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor, and star Britt Lower earning her first Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama. The honors are in addition to previously announced wins at the Creative Arts Emmys for Outstanding Guest Actress Merritt Wever, Outstanding Production Design for a Narrative Contemporary Program (One Hour), Outstanding Cinematography for a Series (One Hour), Outstanding Music Composition for a Series (Original Dramatic Score), Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Comedy or Drama Series (One Hour), and Outstanding Title Design.

MacDailyNews Take: “The Studio” is custom-made to win awards. There’s nothing more that Hollywood loves than itself. “The Studio” should rack up awards for as many seasons as it lasts.
That said, congrats on your Emmy awards and nominations, casts and crews of “the Studio,” Severance,” and “Slow Horses.”
Yet another hospital retread that everyone’s seen a thousand times is a better series than “Severance?” M’kay, Emmys. #Joke
