Emmys 2020: ‘Schitt’s Creek’ completes historic sweep, wins all 7 comedy categories

Global News published this video item, entitled “Emmys 2020: ‘Schitt’s Creek’ completes historic sweep, wins all 7 comedy categories” – below is their description.

The Canadian sitcom “Schitt’s Creek” made history at the 2020 Emmy Awards Sunday night, winning all seven categories in which it was nominated, including best comedy series. It was the first time in Emmy history that a Canadian show has won that many awards — consecutively and cumulatively. For the first hour of the broadcast, Schitt’s Creek took every trophy. All four key cast members also snagged acting trophies, including Hamilton-born Eugene Levy and Toronto-born Catherine O’Hara. They play Johnny and Moira Rose, the parents of a formerly wealthy family adjusting to a humble life in a small town the father once bought as a joke. The ambitious 72nd Emmy Awards ceremony was hosted virtually by return emcee Jimmy Kimmel onstage at downtown L.A.’s Staples Center, central command for camera feeds relayed from 130 nominees socially distanced at home or elsewhere in 10 countries and 20 cities. Arguably the biggest award of the night, best drama, went to HBO’s Succession. The winners in all the major categories can be seen in the list below: https://globalnews.ca/news/7344411/emmy-awards-2020-winners-list/ For more info, please go to http://www.globalnews.ca Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Like Global News on Facebook HERE: http://bit.ly/255GMJQ Follow Global News on Twitter HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on Instagram HERE: https://bit.ly/2QZaZIB #GlobalNews #SchittsCreek #MoiraGotHerEmmy #Emmys2020
