Emmy Awards recap: Biggest moments from the 75th annual awards show
The awards show saw several TV cast reunions and a new EGOT winner.
The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards honored the best in television Monday night.
"Succession," "The Bear" and "Beef" took home the top awards, winning for outstanding drama series, outstanding comedy series and outstanding limited or anthology series, respectively.
The three-hour telecast, hosted by Anthony Anderson, saw numerous cast reunions -- bringing together stars from iconic shows like "Martin," "Cheers" and "Grey's Anatomy" -- and paid tribute to those we've lost since the previous Emmy Awards, which aired in September 2022.
The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards were originally scheduled to air on Sept. 18, 2023, but were rescheduled due to the Hollywood strikes.
Check out a recap of how the night unfolded.
