The 77th Primetime Emmys Awards generated another slate of viral moments, from cash awards for short speeches to history-making wins and heartfelt thank yous.
This year's big winners of the night were HBO's medical drama The Pitt, Apple TV+'s Hollywood satire The Studio and Netflix's chilling psychological miniseries Adolescence.
Trammell Tillman made history as the first black man ever to win an Emmy for supporting actor in a drama series.
The Late Show host Stephen Colbert pulled off a big win after his fellow nominees in the talk show category rallied behind him following his show's abrupt cancellation.
And awards night host Nate Bargatze implored winners to keep their long-winded speeches snappy with a running gag that saw his charity donation docked if speech-givers went over their allotted time.
First-time host Nate Bargatze, known for his family-friendly humour, knocked it out of the park with his idea to keep winner speeches short: He started off the night with a $100,000 pledge to the Boys and Girls Club of North America that would be docked $1,000 for every second someone went over.
Severance star Trammell Tillman, who plays the enigmatic Seth Milchick in Apple TV's mind-bending drama, became the first black man ever to win an Emmy for supporting actor in a drama series in the award show's 77-year history. During his speech, Tillman dedicated the award to his mother, whom he described as his first acting coach.
Colbert, who was cancelled by CBS earlier this year, offered up his vintage headshot and made a public plea for work when he took the stage as a presenter early in the telecast. He also received a standing ovation and rapturous chants of 'Stephen, Stephen!'
