00:19This year's Emmy's host, Kenan Thompson, kicked things off for television's biggest night,

00:23putting a very musical spin on the traditional opening monologue

00:27by performing a remix of some of TV's best and most classic opening theme songs.

00:38The night was off to a hot start with none other than Oprah Winfrey gracing the stage

00:42with an empowering speech before presenting the first award of the night

00:45to Michael Keaton for lead actor in a limited or anthology series or movie for Dope Sick.

00:51I've had some doubters. You know what? We're cool.

00:58Among the early big wins of the night were Murray Bartlett, who won for supporting actor in a

01:02limited or anthology series or movie for White Lotus, Matthew McFadyen, who nabbed the award for

01:07supporting actor in a drama series for Succession, and Julia Garner, who took home the award for

01:12supporting actress in a drama series for Ozark. Over on the comedy side, Brett Goldstein took home

01:17the award for supporting actor in a comedy series for Ted Lasso, and Cheryl Lee Ralph gave a moving

01:23speech and powerful performance of Diane Reeves' endangered species, which earned her massive

01:33actress in a comedy series for Abbott Elementary.

01:36I am here to tell you that this is what believing looks like.

01:45Among the night's other memorable moments was Kenan Thompson roasting

01:48Leonardo DiCaprio while wishing Zendaya a happy birthday.

01:5126 is a weird age in Hollywood. I mean, you're young enough to play a high school student,

01:56but you're too old to date Leonardo DiCaprio.

01:59Bowen Yang attempting to steal hosting duties from Thompson.

02:02Is that a threat? Because if it is, it's a hate crime.

02:06Not if I do it, because then it's representation.

02:08Kumail Nanjiani working the bar with a memorable Kenan and Kel reunion,

02:13and a fabulous appearance and emotional win for Lizzo.

02:17Someone fat like me, black like me, beautiful like me. If I could go back and tell little Lizzo

02:25something, I'd be like, you're gonna see that person, but it's gonna have to be you.

02:29This year's Emmys also featured a moving in memoriam with a performance by John Legend.

02:34Wasn't it cute? Told me the queen was a teacher.

02:37And everything you ever loved could leave you, leave you alone.

02:43major wins were handed out to Jason Sudeikis and Jean Smart for the comedy lead actor and actress

02:49categories. Squid Game had a historic night with wins by Hwang Dong Hyuk for outstanding directing

03:00Thank you to Director Hwang for making realistic problems we all face come to life.

03:10And lead actress in a drama series once again went to Zendaya for her work on Euphoria.

03:22stories and I carry them with me and I carry them with her, so thank you so much.
