Night 4 of the Creative Arts Emmys was headlined by Quibi winning prizes at TV’s top awards.
The short-form content producer went home with two statuettes on Thursday night, both of which went to actors from the series “#FreeRayshawn.”
Legendary “Matrix” star Laurence Fishburne won his third individual Emmy for his portrayal of Lt. Steven Poincy, and then the very next award went to “Hamilton” alumna Jasmine Cephas Jones for playing Tyisha.
Another category worth looking out for on the night was voice-over performance, which saw Maya Rudolph win her first Emmy for voicing Connie the Hormone Monstress on Netflix’s “Big Mouth.” She could potentially pick up another come Sunday, as she is nominated for both “Saturday Night Live” and “The Good Place” in the guest actress in a comedy category.
“Schitt’s Creek” kicked off the penultimate Creative Arts night by winning its first, and likely not last, Emmy of 2020 for casting.
