Emmy Awards recap: Biggest moments from the 75th annual awards show

Sarah Snook of "Succession" won the Emmy for outstanding lead actress in a drama series. She shared a sweet dedication to her daughter during her acceptance speech.

"The biggest thank you I think goes to someone who won't understand anything that I'm saying at the moment but I carried her with me in this last season, and really, it was her who carried me," she said. "It's very easy to act when you're pregnant because you've got hormones raging, and it was more that the proximity of her life growing inside me gave me the strength to do this and this performance."

Other nominees in the category included Sharon Horgan in "Bad Sisters," Melanie Lynskey in "Yellowjackets," Elisabeth Moss in "The Handmaid's Tale," Bella Ramsey in "The Last of Us" and Keri Russell in "The Diplomat."

Kieran Culkin won the Emmy for outstanding lead actor in a drama series for "Succession."

Culkin thanked a number of people in his acceptance speech, including "Succession" creator Jesse Armstrong, his mother and his wife Jazz Charton.

"Thank you for sharing your life with me and for giving me two amazing kids," Culkin told his wife. "And Jazz, I want more. You said 'maybe' if I win."

Calista Flockhart presented the category after reuniting -- and having a dance break -- with her "Ally McBeal" co-stars Greg Germann, Peter MacNicol and Gil Bellows.

Other nominees in the category included Jeff Bridges in "The Old Man," Brian Cox in "Succession," Bob Odenkirk in "Better Call Saul," Pedro Pascal in "The Last of Us" and Jeremy Strong in "Succession."

"All in the Family" stars Rob Reiner and Sally Struthers took the stage to introduce the in memoriam segment for the 75th Emmys. Singers Charlie Puth and The War and Treaty delivered an emotional performance of the songs "See You Again" and "I'll Be There For You" for the segment, which honored those who have died since the last Emmy Awards in September 2022.

Norman Lear, Suzanne Somers, Angela Lansbury, Adan Canto, Richard Roundtree, Ron Cephas Jones, Treat Williams, Angus Cloud, Lance Reddick, Leslie Jordan, Len Goodman and Bob Barker were among the stars that were honored Monday night.

The segment ended with a tribute to "Friends" actor Matthew Perry, who died Oct. 28.

Sarah Kate Ellis, the CEO and president of GLAAD, accepted the 2023 Governors Award on behalf of the LGBTQ media advocacy organization.

"What the world sees on TV influences how we treat each other and the decisions that we make in our living rooms, schools, at work and at the ballot box," Ellis began.

Ellis continued, "The world urgently needs culture-changing stories about transgender people. More people say they have seen a ghost than know a transgender person. When you don't know people, it's easy to demonize them."

"Visibility creates understanding, and it opens doors. It's lifesaving. Our community has achieved so much, and yet we are still being victimized and villainized with cruel and harmful lies," Ellis said, adding that "sharing stories is the antidote."
