Emmys 2025: Best moments from the 77th ceremony

Now that the 2025 Emmys have concluded, the ceremony served as a major platform for recognising excellence in television programming and individual achievement.

Below are the best moments highlighted from the star-studded ceremony at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles:

Stephen Colbert steals the thunder

Stephen Colbert received a standing ovation when he came out to announce Best Actor in a comedy series, but that wasn't the only reason he was there.

He brought jokes as well as a headshot from when he was much younger.

"Is anyone hiring? Because I've got 200 very qualified candidates here tonight who will be available in June,” Stephen quipped.

For those unversed, Stephen’s The Late Show is being canceled by CBS, citing it as a “financial decision.”

Hannah Einbinder sheds light on what’s MORE important

Hannah Einbinder won Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her HBO series Hacks at the 77th annual Primetime Emmy Awards.

However, to create an impact, she ended her speech with “Go Birds, F*ck ICE and, Free Palestine,” which eventually was censored.

Owen Cooper’s historic win

At just 15 years old, Owen Cooper became the youngest male actor ever to win an Emmy in an acting category for his outstanding performance in Adolescence.

Tramell Tillman makes history

Tramell Tilman became the first Black man to win Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for Severance.

While accepting the accolade, he dedicated the win to his mother, who was present in the audience, a moment that was widely appreciated.

Unexpected Gilmore Girls reunion

Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel, also known as Lorelai and Rory from the show, came together on stage to present an award.

This reunion delighted fans with a nostalgic moment.
