It could be recalled that in July 2022,  nominations were announced, revealing Lee Jung Jae from the popular television series Squid game as one of the nominees as well as “The White Lotus”, ” Succession” and “Ted Lasso” attaining big nomination lists.

American actor, Kenan Thompson was revealed as the show host earlier before the ceremony, it was also revealed that Chris Rock and Dwayne Johnson(The Rock) had been approached to host the ceremony but they declined.

The HBO series, “Succession,” which had 25 nominations, took home big awards for best drama and writing for a drama series.

Jesse Armstrong, the creator of the series had almost mocked King Charles III during his acceptance speech for Best Drama Series at the Emmys 2022, a speech which stimulated gasps and cheers from the audience.

He said;  “Big week for successions. The new king in the UK … for us…..Uh, evidently a little more voting involved in our winning than Prince Charles”

Popular comedian Pete Davidson was also present at the award ceremony, on his approach to present the award for Best Comedy Series, he was spotted in an outfit which was earlier worn by his ex-girlfriend’s estranged husband, Kanye West in the 2019 “camp” – themed Met gala in 2019.

“The White Lotus” also bagged big awards for best-limited series, best writing, best directing, also best-supporting actor and actress for Murray Bartlett and Jennifer Coolidge.

“Ted Lasso,” which was nominated for 20 awards, took home best comedy, and MJ Delaney won for directing.
