The 2026 Emmy Winners

The first round of Emmy awarding came and went last weekend, with the categories formerly known as the Creative Arts Emmys going to Outstanding Guest Performers like Betty Gilpin for Widow’s Bay and Outstanding Period or Fantasy/Sci-fi Hairstyling going to Bridgerton. Now, it’s time for the big ’uns. Heading into the night, Apple TV is in a good place: The streamer has won the most trophies already, and they have a good chance at winning Outstanding Comedy Series for the second year in a row if Widow’s Bay can beat out Hacks. In the Drama category, HBO seems primed to take home their second straight award for The Pitt. Can they pull it off? Wait and see.
