  "account": "Los Angeles witnessed the glamour of television's brightest stars as they arrived for the red carpet at the 78th annual Emmy Awards ceremony held at the Peacock Theater. Horror-comedy series \"Widow's Bay\" and gritty hospital drama \"The Pitt\" are being tipped for big wins at the event. The former, starring Matthew Rhys, has already won eight awards in pre-gala ceremonies, potentially becoming the most awarded comedy series in a single year. Rhys, a drama actor winner for \"The Americans\" in 2018, could earn his first comedy Emmy. Best actress for \"Widow's Bay\" is expected to go to Jean Smart, tying her with Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Cloris Leachman for the most acting Emmys. \"The Pitt,\" following the stressed workers in a Pittsburgh ER, is favored to sweep several drama prizes, including best series. Noah Wyle, who has won awards over the past year, is expected to triumph again, with seven of his co-stars hopeful for supporting acting categories.",
