‘The Pitt’ Wins Outstanding Drama Series at 78th Emmy Awards
The Pitt has won the Outstanding Drama Series award at the 78th Emmy Awards. It was nominated alongside several other shows, including The Diplomat, Paradise, Pluribus, Slow Horses, Your Friends & Neighbors, The Gilded Age, and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.
Noah Wyle won the award for Best Drama Actor for his role in The Pitt. According to IndieWire, this victory cements The Pitt's position as a leading show at future ceremonies.
The ceremony was hosted by Mariska Hargitay, who broke with recent tradition by being a dramatic actor rather than a comedian. Jean Smart made history with her fifth Emmy win for Hacks, becoming the first performer to win Best Comedy Actress for every season of a show's run.
