Emmys winners list: Succession goes out on top while The Bear continues its ascent

The latest awards season has only just begun and already things have got very confusing. Yes, this is the 2023 Emmy Awards, just a week after the 2024 Golden Globe Awards. No, don't check your calendar, we are in fact in 2024, but this was delayed because of the actors' strike.

And yes, The Bear won for season two at the Globes a week ago and season one here. Stay with us!

As a piece of television itself, the Emmys once again came up lacking, with Anthony Anderson adequately playing the role of affable host who inserted himself into the sets and characters of television past, an idea that I feel other hosts have done about a dozen times before.

But as a representation of the best that television had to offer over the past year, (or in this case, more than a year and a half), the Emmys delivered the goods. Succession, in its final season, felt like it swept the night. Most of Succession's losses, in fact, were due to the fact that other nominees from the same show won instead.

And while 2020 may have been the year that crowned Jeremy Strong as one of the best actors of his generation, this was Kieran Culkin's night, as he not only won for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, he also provided the show with several of its most memorable moments. Strong, meanwhile, was again a no-show. Curious.

The Bear and Beef dominated their respective categories, and in The Bear's case, this is probably not the last time this cast and crew will take the winner's stage this year, with season two eligible for the next ceremony.

There is, of course, one tragedy of the Emmys: With Succession taking its final bow in style, Better Call Saul did not, leaving it to go home empty-handed and never to return. Alas.

And we did get a historic moment, as Elton John picked up (by proxy) his Egot.

Without further ado, here's the full winners list for the 2023 Emmy Awards.

The smuggler

Eldarir had arrived at JFK in January 2020 with three suitcases, containing goods he valued at $300, when he was directed to a search area.
Officers found 41 gold artefacts among the bags, including amulets from a funerary set which prepared the deceased for the afterlife.
Also found was a cartouche of a Ptolemaic king on a relief that was originally part of a royal building or temple. 
The largest single group of items found in Eldarir’s cases were 400 shabtis, or figurines.

Khouli conviction

Khouli smuggled items into the US by making false declarations to customs about the country of origin and value of the items.
According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, he provided “false provenances which stated that [two] Egyptian antiquities were part of a collection assembled by Khouli's father in Israel in the 1960s” when in fact “Khouli acquired the Egyptian antiquities from other dealers”.
He was sentenced to one year of probation, six months of home confinement and 200 hours of community service in 2012 after admitting buying and smuggling Egyptian antiquities, including coffins, funerary boats and limestone figures.

For sale

A number of other items said to come from the collection of Ezeldeen Taha Eldarir are currently or recently for sale.
Their provenance is described in near identical terms as the British Museum shabti: bought from Salahaddin Sirmali, "authenticated and appraised" by Hossen Rashed, then imported to the US in 1948.

Labour dispute

The insured employee may still file an ILOE claim even if a labour dispute is ongoing post termination, but the insurer may suspend or reject payment, until the courts resolve the dispute, especially if the reason for termination is contested. The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.
