At the 78th Emmy Awards on Monday night, Apple TV's horror-comedy Widow's Bay swept every category it was nominated for and won outstanding comedy series, collecting 14 Emmys and breaking the single-season comedy record. The previous single-season comedy record of 13 wins was set last year by Apple TV's The Studio. The Pitt won outstanding drama series, giving that show the top drama prize of the evening. Actor Matthew Rhys made Emmy history by winning two lead-actor awards in one night. The telecast included a touching tribute to Catherine O'Hara, and Michael J. Fox received the Bob Hope Humanitarian Award, a prize that has been given seven times in Emmy history. Apple TV now has won outstanding comedy series four times in six years.
