Welcome to the 71st Primetime Emmys! Television’s biggest awards night kicked off at 5 p.m. PT in LA. So far, Barry’s Bill Hader has taken home the best lead actor in a comedy series just like last year, and a stunned Phoebe Waller-Bridge took out best lead actress in a comedy series! That makes three awards for Fleabag and two for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
If you’re keen to tune in, here are the details on how to watch. If you want to see behind-the-scenes shenanigans, check out the TV Academy’s backstage stream. And when the event is over, head to IMDb’s aftershow for interviews with some of the victors.

Twitter reactions
Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s best lead actress in a comedy win stole the audience.
What a speech from Alex Borstein.
“My grandmother is a Holocaust survivor [who] asked a guard ‘what happens if I step out of line’ and he said ‘I won’t shoot you but somebody will’ but she stepped out of line and for that I am here. So step out of line, ladies … step out of line.” — @AlexBorstein #Emmys2019 pic.twitter.com/3vhmr9tX2x

Phoebe Waller-Bridge taking out a much-deserved writing award.
Well done Tony Shalhoub for taking out the first award of the night!
Ava DuVernay brought the best dates ever.
Loads of Phoebe Waller-Bridge Fleabag love here!
Game of Thrones’ Gwendoline Christie is making a habit of insanely good red carpet outfits.
