The 77th edition of the coveted award ceremony took place overnight at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, with Colin Farrell, Sharon Horgan and Ruth Negga all up for gongs.
The ceremony was hosted by stand-up comedian Nate Bargatze, with Apple TV+’s office sci-fi "Severance" nominated for 27 awards.
It was a big night for Netflix’s "Adolescence" with stars Owen Cooper and Stephen Graham both receiving recognition for their stellar performances.
Owen Cooper made history becoming the youngest ever-male actor to win an Emmy at the age of just 15 years old.
The British actor took home the award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie, while Stephen, who played his on-screen father, was awarded Best Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series/ Movie.

The mini-series also picked up awards for Best Limited or Anthology Series; Best Writing for a Limited/ Anthology Series/ Movie and Best Directing for a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie, while Erin Doherty won Best Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie.
Graham and Doherty’s acting awards meant there was no recognition for Irish stars Colin Farrell for his role in "The Penguin" or Ruth Negga in "Presumed Innocent".

While Colin wasn’t recognised for his role as "The Penguin", co-star Cristin Milioti did pick up the gong for Best Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for her role as Sofia Falcone.
Sharon Horgan, who was up for Best Lead Actress in a Drama Series, was beaten by "Severance’s" Britt Lower.

"The Pitt" won Best Drama Series, while the Best Comedy Series went to the cast of The Studio.
Fortunately, those who didn’t win didn’t leave empty handed, with all nominees taking home a gift bag worth $25,000 (€21,000).
The bags were said to be jam-packed with a range of wellness, beauty and lifestyle products.
