Maya Rudolph wins her first Emmy while Reznor & Ross get one step closer to their EGOT during the fourth night of the 2020 Creative Arts Emmy Awards.
Tonight the Television Academy continued their week long Emmy event with the fourth of five virtual Creative Arts Ceremonies. This time the ceremony was focused on the music composition and music supervision awards as well as awards celebrating the short form categories, the interactive media categories. and the casting awards.
Because of the category layout the night didn’t lead to too many big winners. #FreeRayshawn won both short form acting categories bringing Quibi its first two Emmys and some much needed positive press for the new streaming service. Big Mouth also won its first two Emmys both for derivative interactive program and character voice-over performance. This also marks the first Emmy of Maya Rudolph and one that we at ADTV have been championing all season long!
The two casting awards went to Succession and Schitt’s Creek hinting that both frontrunners are on their way to a successful Sunday night. While the peer group is relatively small they’ve had immense influence over the years with their winners going on to win the top prize of the night and/or a couple of major acting prizes.
Watchmen won another Emmy bringing up its current total to five. It needs to win eight more awards to tie the record set by John Adams. While not impossible it will need to win at least four awards on Saturday and another four on Sunday to tie. Can HBO achieve the impossible again?
Some of the other winners of the night include The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Shameless, Hollywood, and Euphoria.
