“Shōgun” dominated the second and final night of the 76th Creative Arts Emmys on Sunday, taking home the most awards with 14 and putting itself in prime position for the main ceremony on Sept. 15. The FX period drama set a new record for the most wins ever for a single season of a drama series — a full week before the Primetime Emmys even get started.

The celebration began early for “Shōgun” when it collected the evening’s first award, Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series, for Nestor Carbonell’s performance in the episode “Anjin.” It went on to scoop up accolades for achievements in casting, costumes, makeup, hairstyling, stunts, production design, editing, visual effects, sound editing, sound mixing, main title design and cinematography. “Shōgun” nearly pulled off a perfect run at the Creative Arts Emmys, winning 14 out of the 16 categories it was nominated in. In setting the new record, it won more Creative Arts Emmys than “Game of Thrones,” the most nominated show in Emmy history. (The HBO fantasy drama took home 10 in 2019.)

“Shōgun” is all but certain to add to its impressive haul at the Primetime Emmy Awards, where it has eight nominations in six top categories, including drama series, lead actor for Hiroyuki Sanada and lead actress for Anna Sawai.

In distant second was FX on Hulu’s “The Bear,” which took home seven awards. It swept the guest comedy acting categories with Emmys for first-time winners Jamie Lee Curtis and Jon Bernthal, and also was recognized for casting, editing, sound editing, sound mixing and cinematography.

Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building” followed with three wins for music composition, original music and lyrics (making Benj Pasek and Justin Paul the newest members of the EGOT club) and production design. All three top shows are products of Disney, which vaulted over other networks with 51 wins. Netflix came in second with 18.

Other notable winners on Night 2 included Michaela Coel for her memorable guest spot in Prime Video’s “Mr. & Mrs. Smith,” which also won for stunt coordination. “Baby Reindeer,” “The Morning Show,” “Ripley,” “The Crown” and the canceled “How I Met Your Father” scored two wins apiece, while nine others were honored with one.

It all came after Night 1 of the Creative Arts Emmys was dominated by “Saturday Night Live” and “Jim Henson Idea Man,” plus first Primetime Emmy wins for Alan Cumming, Angela Bassett and Pat Sajak.

The Creative Arts Emmys, which celebrated the year’s best in artistic and technical achievement in television and took place live at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles over two nights, will be edited into a single broadcast airing Saturday, Sept. 14, at 8 p.m. PST on FXX and will be available to stream starting Sunday, Sept. 15 on Hulu. The 76th Primetime Emmy Awards, hosted by father-son duo Eugene and Dan Levy, will air live Sept. 15 at 8 p.m. EST/5 p.m. PST on ABC.

Among the presenters on Sunday were Curtis, Brie Larson, Parker Posey, Carbonell, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Adam Pally, Devery Jacobs, Phillipa Soo, Judy Reyes, Giovanni Ribisi, Alex Edelman, Austin Stowell, Allison Tolman, Damon Wayans Jr. and Jimmy O. Yang.
