"The Bear" scores 7 Emmys, including the first for Jamie Lee Curtis
By Andrew Dalton, Entertainment Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) --âShÅgunâ won the most Emmys ever for a single season of a television series with 14 at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards on Sunday night, while âThe Bearâ won seven including best guest actress in a comedy series for Jamie Lee Curtis.
Presenters were saying âShÅgunâ all night at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on the second night of the two-night Creative Arts Emmys, where awards are handed out that donât quite make the main Primetime Emmys ceremony. It broke the record of 13 set by the 2008 limited series âJohn Adamsâ before even reaching the Sept. 15 main Emmys ceremony, when it can pad its record with up to five more.
âShÅgun,â the FX series about political machinations in feudal Japan, won all but two of the possible 16 trophies it could have claimed on Sunday night, including Emmys for costumes, makeup, editing, stunts and cinematography, along with a best guest actor in a drama Emmy for Néstor Carbonell.
As he accepted, Carbonell thanked the crew, then marveled at how many of them were in the audience.
âYouâre all here! Youâre all nominated!â Carbonell said. âI love the team sport of this.â
Curtis was emotional on stage after winning her first Emmy 18 months after winning her first Oscar for âEverything Everywhere All at Once.â
âIâm the luckiest girl in the world,â Curtis said backstage. âI just never thought I would get to do work at this level of depth and complexity and intelligence. Itâs been the thrill of my creative life these last couple of years.â
Asked if she could win a Grammy and a Tony to make it an EGOT, she said no way.
âI canât sing at all,â she said, âand Iâve never been on stage.â
The songwriting team of Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, however, did become the 20th and 21st members of the elite EGOT club when they won their first Emmy for a song they co-wrote for âOnly Murders in the Building.â The duo had previously won an Oscar for âLa La Landâ and a Grammy and Tony for âDear Evan Hansen.â
Curtis won for the season two âBearâ episode âFishes,â in which she played the mother of star Jeremy Allen White at a nightmare holiday family gathering. Jon Bernthal, who played Whiteâs big brother in the episode, won best guest actor in a comedy.
Michaela Coel won best guest actress in a comedy series for her appearance on âMr. and Mrs. Smith.â
âShÅgunâ shook up the Emmys race when it switched from the limited series to the drama series category in May and led all nominees with 25 when nominations were announced in July.
It won so steadily that the few who beat it â it lost only in two music-composition categories â felt the need to comment on it.
âI didnât write a speech, because there was no way I was beating âShÅgunâ tonight,â said Siddharta Khosa, who won best music composition for a series for âOnly Murders in the Building.â
When Eric AndÅe was asked only one question in the media room after winning his first Emmy for his performance on his self-titled talk show, he said, with fake exasperation, âSorry Iâm not on ShÅgun!â
Maya Rudolph and Angela Bassett were among the Creative Arts winners on Saturday night, which focused on reality and variety TV. Rudolph won her sixth career Emmy, for her voice-over work on the animated âBig Mouth.â Bassett won her first, for her narration of the National Geographic wildlife documentary series âQueens.â
Both nights of the show will be edited into a single 2 1/2 hour show that will air on FXX on Sept. 14 and stream the following day on Hulu.
Dan and Eugene Levy will host the Primetime Emmy Awards, also at the Peacock Theater, airing on ABC on Sept. 15.

Changing OpenAI’s Nonprofit Structure Would Raise Questions and Heightened Scrutiny
The artificial intelligence maker OpenAI may face a costly and inconvenient reckoning with its nonprofit origins even as its valuation recently exploded to $157 billion.
Nonprofit tax experts have been closely watching OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, since last November when its board ousted and rehired CEO Sam Altman. Now, some believe the company may have reached â or exceeded â the limits of its corporate structure, under which it is organized as a nonprofit whose mission is to develop artificial intelligence to benefit "all of humanity" but with for-profit subsidiaries under its control.
Jill Horwitz, a professor in law and medicine at UCLA School of Law who has studied OpenAI, said that when two sides of a joint venture between a nonprofit and a for-profit come into conflict, the charitable purpose must always win out.
"It's the job of the board first, and then the regulators and the court, to ensure that the promise that was made to the public to pursue the charitable interest is kept," she said.
Altman recently confirmed that OpenAI is considering a corporate restructure but did not offer any specifics. A source told The Associated Press, however, that the company is looking at the possibility of turning OpenAI into a public benefit corporation. No final decision has been made by the board and the timing of the shift hasn't been determined, the source said.
In the event the nonprofit loses control of its subsidiaries, some experts think OpenAI may have to pay for the interests and assets that had belonged to the nonprofit. So far, most observers agree OpenAI has carefully orchestrated its relationships between its nonprofit and its various other corporate entities to try to avoid that.
However, they also see... Read More
