Everybody else was left in the dirt by Widow’s Bay‘s 14 wins. Its closest rivals were (the superb) DTF St. Louis, The Traitors, and the Super Bowl halftime show, which each scored seven; but none of these managed more than a single major award. Unlike Apple’s show, which collected six of these most prestigious wins.

Those 14 wins also beat any previous Apple TV entrant; The Studio previously held Cupertino’s record with 13 in 2025. And with a total of 29 Emmy wins altogether (if you include the company’s Outstanding Commercial award, which isn’t credited to its streaming arm), Apple as a whole had its most successful year to date, surpassing the 22 it managed last year thanks to the success of The Studio and Severance. Before then, the company never managed more than 10 wins in a single year.

It was also the first Emmy night for new CEO John Ternus, who proudly showed off his iPhone Duo on the red carpet.
