Adele: One Night Only’s five awards included outstanding pre-recorded variety special. With the win, Adele is now just a Tony away from achieving EGOT status.

Chadwick Boseman received a posthumous Emmy for his voice performance as T’Challa in Disney+ series What If…? Boseman’s wife, Taylor Simone Ledward, accepted, saying, “What a beautifully aligned moment it really is that one of the last things he would work on would not only be revisiting a character that was so important to him and his career and to the world, but also that it be an exploration of something new, diving into a new potential future.”
Former President Barack Obama won his first Emmy, for narrating the Netflix docuseries Our Great National Parks. He is now halfway to EGOT, having previously won two Grammys.
Riot Games and Netflix’s animated series Arcane received four Emmys, including animated series and three juried awards. The Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show was a big winner for three Emmys, while Netflix’s Love on the Spectrum also nabbed three.
Programs that won two Emmys include A Black Lady Sketch Show, Drag Race, Lizzo’s Watch Out for the Big Grrrls, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, Luci and Desi and the Love Death + Robots episode “Jibaro” (including one juried award).
