The Emmys took place in Los Angeles and, while Succession was once again the big winner, the main talking points revolved around Squid Game’s success – and Better Call Saul’s lack thereof.

Succession beat out the likes of Stranger Things, Euphoria, and Severance to once again land the award for Outstanding Drama Series. Squid Game’s Lee Jung-Jae became the first cast member of a non-English speaking series to take home the Emmy for Best Actor in a Lead Series, while Better Call Saul went home completely empty-handed. Actor Michael McKean, who played Chuck on the AMC show, tweeted "fuck that noise" after the ceremony, perhaps echoing the thoughts of many after Rhea Seehorn – who was largely seen as a frontrunner for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series – was overlooked by the awards body.

Here's the full 2022 Emmys winners list, including wins for Zendaya and Jean Smart, and a repeat success for Ted Lasso.

Senior Entertainment Writer

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer here at GamesRadar+, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.
