74th Primetime Emmy Awards

The 74th Primetime Emmy Awards honored the best in American prime time television programming from June 1, 2021, until May 31, 2022, as chosen by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. The awards ceremony was held live on September 12, 2022, and was preceded by the 74th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards on September 3 and 4, at the Microsoft Theater in Downtown Los Angeles, California. The ceremony was broadcast in the United States on NBC and Peacock. During the ceremony, Emmy Awards were handed out in 25 categories. The event was produced through Done and Dusted and Hudlin Entertainment and was directed by Hamish Hamilton. Kenan Thompson was the ceremony's host.

At the main ceremony, The White Lotus received the most awards with five, including Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series. Ted Lasso won four awards, including its second consecutive award for Outstanding Comedy Series, while Abbott Elementary won two awards and Hacks won one. Succession led all dramas with three wins, including its second Outstanding Drama Series win; Squid Game received two awards, and Euphoria and Ozark received one each. Other winning programs include Dopesick, The Dropout, Jerrod Carmichael: Rothaniel, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, Lizzo's Watch Out for the Big Grrrls, and Saturday Night Live. Including Creative Arts Emmys, The White Lotus led all programs with 10 wins; HBO and HBO Max led all networks and platforms with 38 total wins.

The nominations for the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards were announced on July 12, 2022, by J. B. Smoove and Melissa Fumero alongside Television Academy CEO Frank Scherma. Including nominations at the 74th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards, Succession led all programs with 25 nominations, followed by Ted Lasso and The White Lotus with 20 nominations each. HBO and HBO Max combined for 140 nominations, more than any other network or platform; HBO's 108 nominations surpassed Netflix's second-place tally of 105. Succession earned 14 nominations for acting, surpassing the previous drama series record of 12 set by The West Wing and the overall record of 13 set by Roots and Rich Man, Poor Man. Squid Game became the first non-English-language program to be nominated for Outstanding Drama Series. Quinta Brunson became the first black woman to earn three comedy nominations in a single year for Abbott Elementary. BET, through its streaming service, earned its first major scripted series nomination with The Ms. Pat Show.

The winners were announced on September 12, following the Creative Arts Emmys on September 3 and 4. HBO and HBO Max led all networks and platforms with 38 total wins, reclaiming the top spot after falling behind Netflix the previous year; the latter only won 26 after winning 44 at the previous ceremony. The White Lotus led all programs with five major wins, while Succession and Ted Lasso each won their second overall series awards. The former also led all programs when including Creative Arts Emmys with 10. For their work on Squid Game, Lee Jung-jae and Hwang Dong-hyuk became the first Asians to win for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series and Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series, respectively. At age 26, for her performance in Euphoria, Zendaya became the youngest two-time winner for acting and the first black woman to win Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series twice. Sheryl Lee Ralph became the second black actress to win Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her performance in Abbott Elementary, following Jackée Harry's win 35 years earlier. Abbott Elementary creator Brunson also became the second black woman to win Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, following Lena Waithe's win for Master of None in 2017.

Winners are listed first, highlighted in boldface, and indicated with a double dagger (‡). For simplicity, producers who received nominations for program awards have been omitted.

The Governors Award was presented to the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media "in recognition of their efforts to promote gender balance and foster inclusion throughout the entertainment industry".

For the purposes of the lists below, "major" constitutes the categories listed above (program, acting, directing, and writing), while "total" includes the categories presented at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards.

To avoid disputes over how different services combined nominations, the Television Academy did not release its own tally of nominations by network. Totals are based on platforms listed with each nomination.
