Excellent choice! A show that actually had me laughing 😆

A COMEDY winning best comedy?! I’m shook! 🤯

YES!!!! Hacks is so funny and this is so well deserved

The Bear is the better show, but Hacks is the better comedy.

Holy shit we actually got a real comedy to win.
Hacks is genuinely the best comedy of the 2020s. It has been funny, heartfelt and the relationship between the two leads is one of the best dynamics in recent years.

I just realized that a Max Original show is beating the HBO ones in the Emmys this year… which is pretty hilarious

Good.

I was ready to riot with all The Bear nonsense tonight. Well deserved
Pleasantly surprised and very happy with this decision.

Wow, I didn’t think it had a chance with The Bear as competition. Glad for the series and Jean’s win for best actress. Bring on season 4!

Tangential, but Jean Smart will probably win for every season similar to JLD for Veep—she’s obviously great, but everyone in that room ADORES her.

At least it’s not the fucking Bear.
Only Murders keeps getting robbed.

SO surprised, but maybe should have seen it coming with the writing win. I really wouldn’t have minded a near Hacks sweep this season, S3 was its best yet. Jean/Hannah/Kaitlin fully deserved to sweep the female comedy acting categories at least.
I’ll moan and groan about all the acting wins but this was good enough for me. Good job, Emmys.

Wanted Reservation Dogs to win but I’ll take an actual comedy series over The Bear.

Damn, I’m shocked as I thought for sure The Bear was going to win despite not being a comedy.

Well deserved. Season 3 was so well done, and the Bear is not a comedy.

Completely deserving. What a brilliant show. I was worried the bear would somehow beat this.

I enjoy The Bear but it’s a slap in the face to every other show in the comedy category to be submitted as one just because they know they wouldn’t win under drama. Hacks is fantastic and the win is well deserved
daIIiance on
I think a combination of the poor reception of S3 and the comedy backlash played a part. I feel like The Bear will not win a lot of awards next year, even if it’s in the comedy section.

Hacks is funny and that ending scene proves it has just as much pathology as The Bear, except it’s an actual comedy show instead of a drama changing categories so it can win.
WildMajesticUnicorn on
I like Hacks and I’m glad an comedy won. Did anyone else start feeling like Ava should just stay away from Deborah?
ooouroboros on
I don’t carry a ton of streaming services so there is a lot I have not seen, but I have had HBO and this season Hacks was just great and so well constructed from beginning to end.

Much deserved. True ensemble comedy.

The Bear S2 is legitimately a great season of television but it’s interesting how its summer release likely carried it’s S1 to a win, and weakness of S3 probably kept S2 from winning this time. Glad Hacks got writing and comedy this time around but it’s weird Einbinder wasn’t carried along with it. I hope Abbott Elementary can capitalize on the chaos and come out with a great 4th season to win next year.

This show and Jean Smart really doing the Lords work and block The Bear from another bullshit sweep.

I loved season 1 so much I’m always anxious that a new season will let me down and they never do
freddieredmayne on
I still can’t believe it!!! The Bear won a bunch of Emmys earlier this year partially because its remarkable second season had been released and seen while voters were still judging its first season, so it seems fair that the show “underperformed” while nominated for its second season considering the lukewarm reception of the third season, which had already been released while voting was underway. But most of all, it’s great to see Hacks – a GREAT comedy that doesn’t follow the traditional joke-per-second-ratio of traditional sitcoms – to win the top prize, and for its very best season to date (season 3 was awesome)!!!!

FX can’t keep getting away with this. They submitted a limited series as a drama and a drama series as a comedy.

Love Hacks. Glad it won. I would have been happy with Curb, Abbott, or Only Murders too though.

Probably laughed more to a single episode of Hacks than to the entirety of The Bear.

Holy shit it won over The Bear season 2.
I’m happy, but confused about the Hannah snub.
Pleasantly surprised and very happy with this decision.
