In one of the big surprises of the night, Hacks shocked the audience beating favorite The Bear in best writing in a comedy series. Lucia Aniello, Paul W. Downs and Jen Statsky took home the award for the episode Bulletproof and co-writer Downs thanked those that have stuck with the show from the start.

Co-creator Paul W. Downs also called for more television that showcases women that are over 60, saying: "About 20% of our population is over 60, and only 3% of those characters [are] on television"

"Hacks," a comedy on Max (formerly known as HBO Max) starring Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder, was nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series and won, beating out contenders like the popular "The Bear" and the final season of "Curb Your Enthusiasm."

Maybe "The Bear" isn't a comedy after all? Emmy voters gave comedy series to "Hacks," one of the Emmy ceremony's most surprising moments. We run down all the others.
