LOS ANGELES – Oscar winner Jamie Lee Curtis was among the winners as the two-night Creative Arts Emmy Awards concluded Sunday night at the Peacock Theater at L.A. Live with the presentation of awards in 49 categories of scripted programming.

The awards were mainly in such technical categories as hairstyling, makeup, costuming, production design, picture editing, sound editing, sound mixing and visual effects, but also included guest acting.

Curtis, who won a best supporting actress Oscar in 2023 for her portrayal of an IRS inspector and other versions of the character in “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” won for outstanding guest actress in a comedy series for her two second-season appearances on the FX on Hulu psychological comedy-drama “The Bear” as the troubled mother of the Berzatto siblings (Jeremy Allen White, Abby Elliott and Jon Bernthal).

The Emmy was the first for Curtis who had been nominated once before, in 1998 for outstanding lead actress in a miniseries or a movie for her portrayal of the mother of a boy (Gene Wexler) shot and killed by highway bandits during a vacation in Italy in “Nicholas’ Gift.”

Bernthal won for outstanding guest actor in a comedy series for his portrayal of Michael Berzatto, who struggled with drug addiction before committing suicide four months before the events of the series.

The other acting winners were Néstor Carbonell for outstanding guest actor in a drama series for his portrayal of Spanish sailor Vasco Rodrigues who befriends Pilot Major John Blackthorne (Cosmo Jarvis) in the FX historical drama “Shogun,” and Michaela Coel for outstanding guest actress in a drama series for her portrayal of a spy working for a rival organization in the first-season Prime Video spy series, “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.”

Composers, lyricists and producers Benj Pasek and Justin Paul became the 20th and 21st individuals to win an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony in competition for their victory for outstanding original music and lyrics for “Which of the Pickwick Triplets Did It” from “Only Murders in the Building.”

Pasek and Paul began their “EGOT” in 2017 by winning a best original song Oscar for “City of Stars” from “La La Land.” They added a Tony later that year for best original score for “Dear Evan Hansen” and a Grammy in 2018 for best musical theater album “Dear Evan Hansen.”

Pasek and Paul won a second Grammy in 2019 for best compilation soundtrack for visual media for “The Greatest Showman” and a second Tony in 2022 as producers of the best musical winner, “A Strange Loop.” “Shogun” topped the night with 14 awards while “The Bear” was second with seven.

The Creative Arts Emmy Awards began Saturday with presentation of awards in 50 categories of reality, variety, documentary, nonfiction and animated programming and game shows with Pat Sajak, Alan Cumming and Angela Bassett among the individual winners and “Jeopardy!” among the program winners.

An edited presentation of the two nights will air Saturday at 8 p.m. on FXX and be available on Hulu from next Sunday through Oct. 9.

Awards in the top 25 categories in comedy, drama, competition, limited, variety and talk series and the Governors Award will be presented at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards next Sunday, also at the Peacock Theater. Programming had to initially be broadcast or streamed between June 1, 2023 and May 31, 2024 to be eligible for all three shows. (CNS)
