The 2023/2024 Emmys marked a historic moment with a record-breaking number of people of color winning across all major categories, including drama, comedy, limited, reality, and variety series. Notable wins included Ayo Edebiri for supporting comedy actress, Niecy Nash-Betts for supporting actress in a limited series, and "Beef" creator Lee Sung-jun winning three Emmys. The ceremony also saw RuPaul extending his record as the most-awarded host and Black person in history, Trevor Noah becoming the first Black person to win outstanding talk series, and GLAAD receiving the TV Academy’s Governors Award. Despite the progress, there were reminders of historical shortcomings, and some favored nominees did not secure wins.
