Discover the winners of the 2025 Emmy Awards: Adolescence, The Studio and The Pitt are the big winners at the 77th ceremony in Los Angeles.
The Emmy Awards, created in 1949, remain one of the most prestigious American ceremonies, rewarding excellence in the television industry every year. Considered the equivalent of the Oscars for cinema, they recognize the best series, actors, directors and writers, whether on traditional channels or streaming platforms such as Netflix, Apple TV+ or HBO Max.
In 2025, Adolescence established itself as the big revelation, winning six major awards, including Best Miniseries, Best Actor for Stephen Graham and Best Supporting A ctor for Erin Doherty and Owen Cooper, the latter becoming the youngest winner in the ceremony's history at the age of 15.
The comedy The Studio, starring Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, triumphed on the comedy front. Broadcast on Apple TV+, it walked away with four statuettes, including Best Comedy Series and Best Actor for Seth Rogen, having already scooped nine technical awards at the Creative Arts Emmys.
Finally, the surprise came in the drama category, with the victory of The Pitt, a medical series broadcast on HBO Max. It beat off prestigious competition to win Best Drama Series, as well as two awards for Noah Wyle (Best Drama Actor) and Katherine LaNasa (Best Supporting Actress).
