Australian actress Sarah Snook, who plays Tom’s wife Siobhan Roy in the show, was also nominated (her second time) but lost out to Ozark‘s Julia Garner.

On a win-to-nominations ratio, the only show to come close to The White Lotus was Abbott Elementary, the Disney+ comedy set in a Philadelphia public school. It collected three of the seven awards for which it was nominated.

Ted Lasso was one of last year’s big success stories, winning in seven of the 20 categories for which it was nominated. This year, despite the mixed reaction to its second season, which headed into much darker territory, it still won four out of 20. All were in the major comedy categories, too: outstanding lead actor (Jason Sudeikis), supporting actor (Brett Goldstein), directing (M.J. Delaney) and comedy series.

Only Murders in the Building was fancied to lead the comedy field this year, but while stars Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez provided some good moments on stage, the only cast member to score was Nathan Lane as best guest. With two technical wins a day earlier, the show wound up with three from 17 nominations.

Apple’s much-fancied series Severance was largely overlooked, collecting just two awards from 14 nominations, both of them in the technical categories – original score and title design – that had been handed out on Sunday. During Monday’s main event it went empty-handed.

But by far the biggest snub of this year’s Emmys was delivered to Better Call Saul. Nominated in seven categories – including actor and actress, writing, directing and best series – the Breaking Bad spin-off, which screens on Stan, won none.

Academy voters were at least consistent: across its six seasons, the show has been nominated 46 times in all, but has yet to win a single award.
