Acclaimed FX comedy-drama The Bear has beat its own record at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday, scooping four wins in major categories . The culinary saga set a new record for most wins in a single season for a comedy with 11 awards - one more than it received in 2023 - after Christopher Storer won Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series. Earlier in the evening, Jeremy Allen White secured Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series, Liza Colon-Zayas won Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series, and Ebon Moss-Bacharach took out Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series - adding to the seven prizes The Bear received last weekend at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards.

Hacks also saw Jean Smart triumph in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series category, an honour she has now won three times for her role as Deborah Vance in the HBO Max hit . She previously took home the award in 2021 and 2022.
