Japanese-language TV series “Shōgun” dominated the drama series categories at the Emmy Awards on Sunday, winning four categories, including best drama, best directing for a drama series, outstanding lead actor in a drama series and outstanding lead actress in a drama series. With 18 total wins, the show took home more Emmys than any other production nominated.
Created by FX, the 10-episode limited series took a decade to create and had a record-breaking premiere across streaming platforms in March. It racked up 9 million views globally in just six days, according to parent company Disney, topping the premiere of “The Bear” Season 2. 'I was crying before my name was announced. I'm a mess today,' Anna Sawai said while accepting her award for best actress in a drama series.
