Jason Sudeikis’ heartwarming comedy series Ted Lasso scored on goal at Sunday’s Emmys ceremony when it won the prestigious award for Outstanding Comedy Series.
Sudeikis took home one of the top acting honors for Lead Actor in a Comedy for playing the title character, when his costars Hannah Waddingham and Brett Goldstein also won both supporting actor prizes for the comedy.
The 2021 ceremony was taking place at L.A. Live’s Event Deck in Downtown Los Angeles. The space offers indoor and outdoor locations, but the main ceremony was held indoors.
Big winner: Ted Lasso won big at Sunday’s Emmys with awards for Outstanding Comedy Series and a Lead Actor prize for star Jason Sudeikis

The whole team: Ted Lasso co-creator Bill Lawrence accepted the prize while the cast and creative team assembled
While attendees were all required to be fully vaccinated and have a negative Covid-19 test to attend, none of the attendees appeared to be wearing masks throughout the ceremony.
Jason opened with a sweet speech as he accepted his acting award.
‘I would say that this show is about family, this show is about mentors and teachers, this show is about teammates. And I wouldn’t be here without those three, you know things in my life.’
The comedian included a sweet callout for his son Otis, seven, and his daughter Daisy, four, whom he shares with his former partner Olivia Wilde.
The sweet speech was in keeping with the manner of his heartwarming character Ted Lasso, though he got a bit raunchier when he offered thanks for his old SNL boss Lorne Michael, whom he joked ‘went to take a dump now.’
Sudeikis plays the title character on Ted Lasso, an American football coach who’s enlisted to lead an English soccer team despite having no experience with the sport.
Before presenting his award, Legally Blonde star Jennifer Coolidge jokingly handled the Emmy as if she had won, though she can’t be nominated for her series The White Lotus until next year.
Hannah shouted with joy after winning her big award.
‘Jason, you’ve changed my life with this,’ she gushed for her Sudeikis.
She plays the owner of an English soccer team who hires Ted Lasso after wining control of the team in a divorce.
Among the nominees was her costar Juno Temple.

Immediately after Hannah’s big win, Ted Lasso fans scored another goal when comedian and actor Brett Goldstein was announced the winner of the Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series trophy.
