Taylor Swift makes surprise Emmys appearance sharing cryptic comment in "Law & Order" parody
"People" executive editor for TV and events Breanne Heldman breaks down the top moments from the 2026 Emmy Awards.
The 78th Emmy Awards concluded with an emotional In Memoriam segment honoring notable personalities who passed away last year. Among them were actors Catherine O'Hara, Sam Neill, producer Ted Turner, singer Dolly Parton, director James Burrows, and Rob Reiner. Singer Noah Kahan performed a live rendition of Simon & Garfunkel's 1970 folk rock song "Bridge Over Troubled Water."
Catherine O'Hara's on-screen children paid tribute to their late mother. Macaulay Culkin, her son from the Home Alone franchise, spoke of her as a mother figure to him and their cast. Annie Murphy and Dan Levy, who played the children of Catherine's iconic character Moira Rose in Schitt's Creek, praised her positive impact and the lesson of saying "yes" to opportunities.
Jamie Lee Curtis paid tribute to Rob Reiner, highlighting his generosity, kindness, and humor. Reiner, who died of homicide at 78, holds the record for the longest gap between acting Emmys, with 48 years between his wins.
