The last time a company set a record for winning the most Emmys in a single year happened in 2021. That was when Netflix won 44 awards, an achievement that hadn’t been matched since CBS secured 44 wins in 1974. On Sunday, The Walt Disney Company beat both networks with 60 Emmy wins, 36 of which came from FX alone.

“The Emmys have been around for 78 years. Typically, if you have a well-established threshold of record in anything — whether it’s the 100-meter dash, the mile or, frankly, records in baseball — for 78 years, you don’t tend to see those records absolutely shattered,” FX networks chairman John Landgraf told TheWrap Monday. “But 60? That’s 35% higher than the highest number any company has ever achieved in 78 years of the Emmys. And so I’m thrilled.”
