‘Shogun’ and ‘Hacks’ win top series Emmy Awards and ‘The Bear’ and ‘Baby Reindeer’ take 4 apiece

LOS ANGELES (AP) — “Shogun” had historic wins in an epic 18-Emmy first season, “Hacks” scored an upset for best comedy on what was still a four-trophy night for “The Bear,” and “Baby Reindeer” had a holiday at an Emmy Awards that had some surprising swerves.

“Shogun,” the FX series about power struggles in feudal Japan, won best drama series for its first, while Hiroyuki Sanada became the first Japanese performer to win an Emmy when he won best actor in a drama and co-star Anna Sawai became the second moments later when she won best actress.

Jean Smart won her third best actress in a comedy award for the third season of “Hacks,” in which her stand-up comic character Deborah Vance tries to make it in late-night TV. Smart has six Emmys overall.

Despite losing out on the night’s biggest prize after winning it for its first season at January’s strike-delayed ceremony, FX’s “The Bear” came back for seconds with major acting wins.
