    The 74th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards crowned its winners Monday night, and we've rounded up the victors from the biggest categories of the evening. Series like Squid Game and Abbott Elementary made history with their wins, while some familiar favorites — Ted Lasso and Succession in particular — came as no surprise. The Kenan Thompson-hosted proceedings played it safe, avoiding any slap-related incidents and keeping the focus on pre-recorded montages and a star-studded roster of presenters.
