Over 100 winners are being announced at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles across Saturday. Sept. 5, and Sunday, Sept. 6. The two evenings will be edited into a single broadcast, airing on Saturday, Sept. 12 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on FXX, serving as a perfect appetizer to the Emmys on Monday, Sept. 14, hosted by Mariska Hargitay.

So far, Hargitay is among the big Emmy winners, taking home two for her documentary My Mom Jane, which was released last summer on HBO and HBO Max. The SVU star received Outstanding Directing for a Documentary/Nonfiction Program, while the film received Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special.

The Traitors is also cleaning up, winning six statuettes on Saturday night, including Outstanding Host of a Reality or Reality Competition Program for Alan Cumming — his third win in a row. The series also won honors for its production design, cinematography, editing, costuming, and directing.

Elsewhere, Octavia Spencer took home the Outstanding Narrator award for her work in The Lost Women of Alaska, and Jimmy Kimmel won Outstanding Host for a Game Show for Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? The Late Show With Stephen Colbert also won five Emmys, including Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series.

Other major nominees this year are The Pitt, Hacks, Widow’s Bay, Pluribus, Beef, and DTF St. Louis, most of which are up for awards being handed out on Sunday night. This article is being updated with the Sept. 6 winners as they’re revealed.
