‘The Bear’ sets new record with 11 Emmy wins for best comedy

FX’s hit series "The Bear" has once again rewritten the Emmy record books, securing 11 wins at the 76th Primetime Emmys. 

This marks an improvement from last year when the series took home 10 Emmys, which had already set the record for the most comedy wins in a single year.

Among the major wins at the awards ceremony were Jeremy Allen White, who won lead comedy actor for his role as Carmy, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach, who took home the award for supporting comedy actor for his portrayal of Richard "Richie" Jerimovich.

Liza Colón-Zayas also earned a supporting comedy actress trophy for her role as Tina, while Christopher Storer was recognized for directing, with accolades for the episodes "Fishes" or Ramy Youssef for "Honeydew."

Prior to Sunday’s ceremony, "The Bear" had already garnered seven Creative Arts Emmys, including guest comedy actress and actor wins for Jamie Lee Curtis and Jon Bernthal, who portrayed Donna and Michael Berzatto, respectively. 

Other Creative Arts victories included awards for picture editing, sound mixing, cinematography, and sound editing, all for the series' second season.

Earlier this year, "The Bear" made headlines with 23 nominations for Season 2, surpassing the previous record of 22 nominations held by NBC’s "30 Rock" since 2009. The series, created by Christopher Storer, follows Carmy as he transforms his late brother’s sandwich shop in Chicago into a fine-dining restaurant.
