The 2026 Emmy Awards had everything: host Mariska Hargitay frequently breaking into song; Nick Offerman waxing poetic about “erotic house painting”; John Mulaney reading an excerpt from A Guy’s Guide to Being a Man’s Man; cameos from Jalen Brunson and Taylor Swift; plus moving tributes to the likes of Dolly Parton, Catherine O’Hara, Rob Reiner, and James Burrows.
