Pat Sajak Wins First Emmy in 26 Years for ‘Wheel of Fortune’: Full List of 2024 Creative Arts Emmys Night 1 Winners

0

The Television Academy bestowed honors on many television programs and individuals — including Pat Sajak! — on Saturday, September 7, at the first of its two 2024 Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremonies.

Sajak, who retired from his job at the Wheel of Fortune podium this year, won Outstanding Host for a Game Show, a category he hadn’t won since 1998. And though Sajak wasn’t in attendance at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles, he did post a brief message of thanks on X.

Thank you all so very much.— Pat Sajak (@patsajak) June 7, 2024

Other big winners included Saturday Night Live with six awards; Blue Eye Samurai, Jim Henson Idea Man, and The Oscars with four apiece; and Billy Joel: The 100th – Live At Madison Square Garden and Welcome to Wrexham with three.

The second night of the 2024 Creative Arts Emmys will be held tonight, Sunday, September 8, and an edited presentation of the awards on both nights will air Saturday, September 14, at 8/7c on FXX and will stream on Hulu from Sunday, September 15, to Wednesday, October 9.
