Everything The Bear Won at the 2024 Emmy Awards
The Bear dominated at the 2024 Emmy Awards on Sunday. After coming in with a record number 23 nominations in a single year in the Comedy category -- including noms for Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri, Jon Bernthal, Jamie Lee Curtis and Ebon Moss-Bachrach -- The Bear kept the wins coming fast than you can say, "yes, chef!" The show, of course, already picked up seven trophies at the Creative Arts Emmys last month, where Curtis walked away with the trophy for Best Guest Actress in a Comedy Series. She won for the Season two Bear episode "Fishes," in which she played the alcoholic mother of star White's Carmy, at a nightmare holiday family gathering. Bernthal, who played White's older brother, Michael, in the episode, won Best Guest actor in a Comedy. Their winning streak continued Sunday with Moss-Bachrach taking home the trophy for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for the second year in a row. "Wow, thank you so much. I don't know what to say, I'm, so grateful for this show and to work with these beautiful people," Moss-Bachrach said Sunday. "... I work with this incredible family. Every day, it's such a privilege to work with Ayo and Jeremy. Lionel, Liza, Abby, Matty, Ricky, Oliver. All little my forks crew. Andrew and Sarah. Olivia. Thank you, Jeanie Bachrach. She put such a nice family together. Thank you to my parents, they're taking such nice care of my cat. And thanks to Mari and Sasha, my sweet daughters. Yelena, I love you so much. I do everything for you." Because of last year's postponed show, Moss-Bachrach also became the first person to win two Primetime Emmys in the same calendar year for the same role. White won for a consecutive year in the Lead Actor in a Comedy Series category as well, thanking his cast and his family, including his two daughters watching at home, and his sister, who accompanied him to the show Sunday. "Thank you to The Academy. My fellow nominees: I'm so honored to be in your company. Chris and Joe, thank you for choosing me. I'm so, so, so lucky. I'm so grateful, thank you," White gushed. "My beautiful cast, I love you forever. I love to work with you, and I want us to be in each others lives forever... This show has changed my life. It has instilled a faith that change is possible. That change is possible if you are able to reach out, you are really truly never actually alone. I thank this show." He continued, "My parents, I love you. Anabelle, my sister. You're here. I love you so much. Thank you for coming with me tonight. Ezer and Louie, I love you so, so, so, so much. You are my heart. Thank you. Thank you, everybody." Making history was Liza Colón-Zayas, who became the first Latina actress to win an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. Emotional and overwhelmed, Colón-Zayas admitted that she did not write a speech because she wasn't sure she would take home the trophy, but still delivered a powerful message, as she encouraged Latinas watching around the world to "vote for your rights." "Thank you to my husband, David Zayas. He told me to write a speech, and I didn't, because I didn't think it would be possible," Colón-Zayas told the crowd. "How could I have thought it would be possible to be in the presence of Meryl Streep, and Carol Burnett, and Janelle, and Sheryl Lee Ralph, and Hannah... Anyway, I love you all, I revere you. To the bottom of my heart." She continued, "And other women. My mommy. Mommy, thank you. My family. My grandkids. Thank you. And thank you to my beautiful cast. Chris Storer. Joanna. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, for giving me a new life with this show." Lastly, Colón-Zayas, who plays Tina on the beloved Hulu series, thanked the Latina community, addressing them directly: "And to all the Latinas who are looking at me, keep believing and vote. Vote for your rights. Thank you. Thank you. Gracias." The Bear's director, Christopher Storer, won in the category once again, taking home the trophy for Outstanding Directing in a Comedy Series for the Season 2 episode, "The Fishes," the same episode Curtis won her Emmy for at the Creative Arts Emmys in August. Storer won three total awards for the show last year -- in the writing, directing and producing categories. "Thank you so much for FX for investing in the thing that you probably shouldn't invest in, which is a restaurant," Storer quipped. "Hulu. Disney. On this episode, it was one of those weird ones where we were all kind of cramped into a smaller house. It was one of those instances where I could sort, for the first time, see our whole crew. And it was special, 'cause I could see how hard everybody worked and how much everybody cared and how much they cared abut each other." He continued, "And I just want to accept it on their behalf, just 'cause they're so wonderful. And I think we've been able to do this for a few yea
The show went into the night with a record number of nominations in a single year in the Comedy category -- picking up 23 noms, including ones for Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri and Outstanding Comedy Series.

And to we all know how lucky we are to get to do this. And to anybody watching 'The Bear,' it means so much to us. Thank you very much. This is great."
Storer's win brought The Bear to a record-breaking 11 awards for most Emmy wins ever for a single comedy season, shattering the show's previous record of 10.
Surprisingly, the show didn't win Outstanding Comedy Series -- that honor went to Hacks.
