John Oliver’s A+ Emmy Speech Went From A Sad Story About A Pet’s Death To Dropping An F-Bomb On The Orchestra
2024 Emmy Awards saw an eclectic group of winners, especially in categories that didn’t favor the usual pick The Bear. Kudos to Hacks‘ Jean Smart for preventing a sweep. However, it seems we can all concur that the real triumphants were those who enjoyed John Oliver’s stellar speech following Last Week Tonight‘s victory in Outstanding Scripted Variety Series. His address reached sitcom levels of discomfort, complete with a censored F-bomb.
