Primetime Emmy Awards 2022: The complete list of winners

The awards night for Emmys 2022 came back to how it was pre-pandemic. With its regular displays of commercialism, gags and genuine unforgettable moments, the glamorous night also had spotlight-stealing speeches from the winners.

Compared to last year’s show, Emmys 2022 was far better. Moreover, Just One Job and Kenan Thompson hosted the 74th Annual Emmy Awards.

While leading winners bagged the top prizes for the night, many other contenders were also on the list. To give the full details of the night’s winners, here is our complete list of the Primetime Emmys 2022.

They have defined their genres and served as standard-bearers for their crafts, at each and every moment elevating their colleagues and our industry as a whole. We are thrilled to announce this year's class of Lifetime Achievement Emmy Award honorees. #EmmyIcons pic.twitter.com/YyXtfxHYOD

While every fan is rooting for their fave tv series, this year’s grand winners prove that the newbies also have their chances to bag the fabulous prizes. The Squidgame, for a fact, is vigorous because it’s new. The TV show bagged most of the major awards for Emmys 2022. Although it isn’t a connotation that if the others didn’t win, the show wasn’t strong enough. It is just a case that the show might get stuck up on a wide array of other competitors.
