In addition to Gilpin’s victory, the Apple TV comedy horror series also won for casting for a comedy series; cinematography for a series (half- hour); production design for a narrative program (half-hour); music composition for a series; music supervision; sound editing for a comedy or drama series (half-hour) and animation; and sound mixing for a comedy or drama series (half- hour) and animation.
The ceremony also included the presentation of the Television Academy’s inaugural Legacy Award to the groundbreaking 1951-57 CBS comedy “I Love Lucy.”
The 78th Emmy Awards began Saturday with the presentation of 49 awards for reality, nonfiction and variety programming and mainly in such technical categories as picture editing, sound mixing and lighting.
The awards presented Saturday and Sunday had been known as the Creative Arts Emmys, but a shift of seven awards from what had been known as the Primetime Emmy Awards to the earlier ceremonies prompted the recent rebranding of all three ceremonies to the 78th Emmy Awards.
The awards that were shifted were writing for a variety series, supporting actor and actress in a limited or anthology series or movie; directing for a limited or anthology series or movie; writing in a limited or anthology series or movie; and variety special (live).
