“Baby Reindeer” creator and star Richard Gadd barely had time to accept the Emmy for best actor in a limited series before he was called back to the stage to accept another Emmy for the show itself as best limited or anthology series or TV movie. “This is unbelievable,” when Gadd, who earlier won the Emmy for best writing for a limited series, returned for the final award. “I know the industry is in a slump right now and it might put pressure to tighten the purse strings. I do think no slump is broken without being willing to take risks. “You don’t need big stars long-running series to have a hit,” he continued. “The only constant across any success in television is good story, and telling a story that speaks to our times. So take risks, push boundaries, explore the uncomfortable in order to achieve.” In addition to Gadd’s two individual awards and that for the overall show, “Baby Reindeer” also won the Emmy for best supporting actress for Jessica Gunning. A week earlier, it won two Emmys at the Creative Arts Emmys ceremony. The other big award in the limited series category went to Jodie Foster who won her first-ever Emmy as the star of “True Detective: Night Country.” Foster made special note of the collaboration the series shared with the Indigenous peoples of Alaska where the story was set. “The Indigenous people, the Inuit people of northern Alaska who just told us their stories and allowed us to listen,” Foster said. “That was a blessing. It was love, love, love, and when you feel that something amazing happens. It’s deep and wonderful and older than time.” Related Articles TV and Streaming | Emmys 2024: ‘Shogun,’ ‘Hacks’ and ‘Baby Reindeer’ are big winners TV and Streaming | Emmys 2024: Jelly Roll provides soundtrack for In Memoriam segment TV and Streaming | ‘Baby Reindeer’ wins Emmys in the limited or anthology series categories TV and Streaming | Emmy winner John Oliver thanks his dearly departed dog TV and Streaming | As ‘The Bear’ wins Emmys, social media debates whether it’s a comedy
