For years, HBO limited series John Adams‘ 13 Emmys in 2008 seemed untouchable, with a number of acclaimed ongoing and limited series coming close but not being able to match the feat in a single year.
FX‘s Shōgun did it ahead of the main telecast on Sunday, scoring record 14 wins at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards. It was one of several highlights in a congratulatory email from Disney Entertainment Co-Chairman Dana Walden who took a moment from the tense carriage negotiations with DirecTV that have entered a second week to celebrate the achievement. “We kicked off the 76th Emmy Awards this weekend in SPECTACULAR fashion, taking home an unbelievable 51 Creative Arts Emmys,” she wrote.
This is a combined total for the various Disney distribution platforms that are tallied separately by the TV Academy. More than half of it came from FX, which also broke its all-time Emmy record with 27 awards, with Shōgun (14 Emmys) and The Bear (7) as the top two programs heading into Sunday.
With the two shows considered frontrunners in most drama and comedy series categories on the main telecast, FX and Shōgun are set to eclipse their own records, and The Bear has a shot at doing the same; it currently holds the record for most wins for a comedy series in a single year, 10.
