The 2023 comedy Emmys were a Bear market. Jeremy Allen White and Ebon Moss-Bachrach continued their awards-season rolls, winning Best Actor and Supporting Actor, respectively, for the FX comedy. The show’s Ayo Edebiri took the first award of the night, following up her Golden Globes win as Supporting Actress.
The Bear also won for Directing and Writing in a Comedy Series. Programs that aired between June 1, 2022, and May 31, 2023, were eligible for the 2023 Emmys, so its first season was competing at this year’s strike-postponed Emmys. The Bear won three Golden Globe Awards last week for its second season.

It also won for Directing and Writing for a Drama Series.
