Succession won the top award of the night at the Emmys and the show’s creator Jesse Armstrong took the moment to throw shade at King Charles III.
Jesse gave the speech for Outstanding Drama Series at the 2022 Emmy Awards on Monday night (September 12) at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.
The HBO series won its second award in the category, beating out Better Call Saul, Euphoria, Ozark, Severance, Squid Game, Stranger Things, and Yellowjackets.

“Big week for successions. New king in the UK … for us,” Jesse said. For those who don’t know, he is from the UK.
Jesse added, “Uh, evidently a little more voting involved in our winning than Prince Charles… I’m not saying we’re more legitimate in our position that he is. We’ll leave that up to other people.”
Joining Jesse on stage were nominees Jeremy Strong, Sarah Snook, and Brian Cox, as well as the show’s winning actor Matthew Macfayden, among others.
FYI: Jeremy is wearing Tom Ford.
