In his first Emmy award, Jeremy Allen White won for “Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series” for his role in “The Bear.” The Television Academy shared a post on X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, “Congratulations to @JeremyAllenWhite on his first #Emmy nomination and win for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for @TheBearFX (@FXNetworks/@hulu)! The 75th Emmys are here.
The award show is happening right now at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles. It was supposed to be September 2023 for the 75th Emmys, but the strikes in Hollywood pushed the date back. Besides him, Ebon Moss Bachrach won the Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for his role in “The Bear.” The show won the Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series as well.
The American comedy-drama TV show “The Bear” was created by Christopher Storer. It first aired on Hulu on June 23, 2022. Jeremy Allen White plays a young, award-winning cook who goes back to Chicago to run his late brother’s sandwich shop’s chaotic kitchen. Lionel Boyce, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ayo Edebiri, Liza Colon-Zayas, Abby Elliott, and Matty Matheson are in the supporting group.
The Hollywood Reporter says that the FX-produced Hulu show won three awards at the Globes. Ayo Edebiri and Jeremy Allen White both won awards for their main acting. Also on Saturday, “The Bear” got four Emmys at the Creative Arts awards, which were pushed back from September. It was a big weekend for the show.
The Bear beat Abbott Elementary on ABC (which won the award last year), Barry on HBO, Jury Duty on Freevee, Only Murders in the Building on Hulu, and Ted Lasso on Apple TV+ to win the Globes.
The Bear’s popularity went through the roof after its second season. According to Nielsen, more than 3.5 billion minutes of watching time were spent on Hulu in the five weeks after its premiere. The show was nominated for 13 Emmys for season two, including one for Best Comedy Series. ‘The Bear’ won the 2024 Golden Globe Award for Best Comedy Series.
