The team from HBO's "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" just won its second award of the evening, for variety series writing.

It may be the fifth time "RuPaul's Drag Race" wins an Emmy for best reality competition program, but we don't get tired of it.

RuPaul Charles praised drag queens during his speech and referred to the political pushback toward drag queen story hours at some public libraries across the country.

"If a drag queen wants to read you a story at a library, listen to her, because knowledge is power," Charles said. "And if someone tries to restrict your access to power, they are trying to scare you. So listen to a drag queen.”

Christopher Storer secured the fourth and fifth wins of the night for "The Bear."

He took home the Emmy awards for outstanding writing and directing for a comedy series.

Storer was not at the show tonight, making for speedy acceptances.

Ted Danson, Kelsey Grammer, John Ratzenberger, Rhea Perlman and George Wendt are on hand to present the award for comedy series direction and comedy series writing.

Niecy Nash-Betts, who won the Emmy for best supporting actress in a limited series or movie for “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story," gave a powerful and emotional acceptance speech.

"I wanna thank me for believing in me and doing what I was told I could not do," Nash-Betts said.

She went on to say she accepts the award "on behalf of every Black and brown woman who has gone unheard yet over-policed — like Glenda Cleveland, like Sandra Bland, like Breonna Taylor. As an artist, my job is to speak truth to power, and baby, I’m gonna do it till the day I die."

... and there are 18 categories to go, including four of the lead actor races.

After winning what feels like his millionth Emmy for scripted variety series, John Oliver embarked on a bit in which he listed soccer players until he was finally cut off. Maybe we should have rescinded his Emmy.

Martin Lawrence and other members of the "Martin" show cast reunited on the Emmys stage to present the award for best actor in a comedy series.

With the help of Emmys host Anthony Anderson, the actors of the iconic '90s show poked fun at being invited to present the award despite never receiving any Emmy nominations.

The show aired for five seasons, from 1992 to 1997.

Jeremy Allen White has won the Emmy for his lead role on FX's "The Bear," giving the acclaimed show its third win of the night.

White won the equivalent award at the Golden Globes last week. In his speech tonight, he thanked his castmates and his father, who is in the audience tonight.
