@@Eudaimaniac44 I know I thought at least Bill Maher isn't on the list. The others even joke about it on their shows...oh John Oliver will get it, so why bother, they say sarcastically. But JO really has the best show. All the others are really good, except the non nominated Bill Maher, but Oliver is just another level. I'm not sure it's entirely fair to put the nightly shows in there with the weekly shows but I'm glad Oliver won again. It's a must and a go-to to understand the big and little pictures. The others are good for the news Oliver doesn't cover.

I think they win because the team at Last week tonight go the extra mile to research fundamental societal issues to an incredible depth and then present it in such a concise and humorous way while even proposing solutions to the issues! They should be nominated for a NOBEL prize too!
You get a novel price for doing work, ie fixing the issue, not complaining about it. & they don't go the extra mile, they are a different format, most notably in that they do only one episode per week, & do far less weeks of they year than the others, so they have less tome to worl on bigger projects, focusing more on the day to day
John Oliver and his team deserves it, but I would love to say that thank you Trevor Noah and Stephen Colber, because these three shows make my days. Also I love that everyone is not surprised that Last Weeek with John Oliver did it again and they are just laughing and cheering because they are good sports and later they joke about it in their own shows with no malice. I just love friendships among comedians. Brilliant.
There there, John is becoming better and better at acceptance speeches and being praised. After all these years of winning EVERY YEAR - PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT 😉 Congratulations, John! Truly, every nomitated show deserves the award. They all are great! Including a few that were not nominated! Bunch of takented clever people doing a great job!
Stephen, Seth, Trevor, and John are all up there in my opinion. Such intelligent humor helping me come to terms with the daily crap we all face. John does a great job fusing facts with being funny…I just don’t feel like we get enough of him. The others are putting content out most days while he is once a week. It feel like comparing delicious apples to delicious oranges to me.
@@rohitr9400 A People's Choice might go to Gutfeld on Fox News. Hard to measure exactly because of time period differences and availability in homes but it's pretty close.
i make a point of watching all the late night hosts & john oliver & they all have their moments when they make me laugh out loud, i consider myself difficult to amuse as i am very critical of all comedy types, i think the level of detail that oliver's show goes into for every episode gives him the edge, just.
Erik. I did too and also that he talked about the stop cue cards and how confusing they are. This is network tv isn't it? I think they allowed him the same freedom HBO does or they didn't catch it in time. Or maybe they'd think he'd be offended if they censored him. It's John being John, the king of political comedy. But yes, I rely on the daily shows more like Trevor and Colbert but look forward to Oliver.
Just make a "Comedians desperately trying to save the world and teach us important things" - category for LWT to win. Then Seth can finally have a chance to win this one. But Jokes aside, my sincere congratulations to the staff of LWT! Absolutely deserved win and thank you all so much for your passion and hard work. I appreciate it very much 💐
I love love love John Oliver ... but still sad that Trevor Noah, Colbert, Kimmel and Seth Meyers go home without an Emmy year after year. He's great but I don't think this makes sense.
Chris I never thought of that seriously. I assumed you're being sarcastic but he did do that piece on Harvey Weinstein and talked about Hollywood. Maybe you're onto something. We'll give you awards if you don't do an expose on us. ???
@televisionacademy I get it if The Emmy was for "Doing the LEAST amount of shows a year", or the Emmy for "This show doesn't even hit double digits in a season", but an Emmy because he's got an accent and does the odd stunt? It's insulting to the other shows that have people working non-stop to create a full year of work.
Idk why they even bother with this category anymore. Just send John Oliver and HBO an award every year. 😂

Damn, i really wanted Seth Meyers to get some recognition. But to be fair, Last Week Tonight still remains brilliant.
The Jackles wanna see it !
one is more awful than the other.
Seth is my spirit animal
Seven years in a row. SEVEN! And fully deserved!
Seven in a row seriously?

“Selena Gomez with her plus ones” 😂
The “STOP NOW” better not be in regards to the show in general! 😂 I hope this show never ends. Give it 20 more seasons and I’ll still want more
LOVE John Oliver! Congratulations to Him & His Entire Staff & Crew! SO many BRILLIANTLY funny shows nominated!
The elaborate cabbage wedding worked.

I agree, I love all 3, i would have thought Stephen as he is on more nights. But all 3 kept me alive through Covid 😵💫
@Lugosi Gutfeld!
100% deserved... love Trevor, love Colbert... like Kimmel... but imo John Oliver and his team just crush it every year
There there, John is becoming better and better at acceptance speeches and being praised. After all these years of winning EVERY YEAR - PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT 😉
Congratulations, John!
Truly, every nomitated show deserves the award. They all are great! Including a few that were not nominated!

Loved Selena, Martin and Steve in both OMITB and presenting here.
Seth Meyers and John Oliver are the absolute ones to beat. ❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏
These three should host the Oscars
FINAAAAALLLLLY DAMN IT Late Night With Seth Meyers got nominated on this!!! About damn time

I like how the audience got quiet with disappointment for a split second upon realizing John Oliver won again. :D
Pretty cool to see this show win 7 times in-a-row.

.... more like a delicious apple to lots of slightly tasty apples. And Kimmel is more like a rotten apple fished out from a landfill
It is true, though, that the research for his show must be extensive. And it’s always fun while revealing depressing and important realities.
The more Emmy’s they give him the more efficient and smooth his acceptance speeches are. Practice really makes perfect
I just feel like putting shows that air daily vs weekly together in one category is not fair!
What category would Oliver go in? There aren’t that many weekly variety shows. It would be the same group every time.
honestly that's a fair point, I guess it's just hard to categorize it otherwise though as there's only a select number of popular shows in this format
We need a 'My Two Dads' reboot with these three..
That one was really for Stephen Colbert.. the audience applause said it all.
If it was People's choice awards..

John Oliver won the John Oliver award. That's great.
I love all the shows in this category. John Oliver continues to dominate. Poor Colbert.
is john oliver gonna be the first to win 10 back to back emmys
@@Eudaimaniac44 ok nevermind then lol
Jon Stewart won 10 back-to-back Emmys from 2003 to 2012. And then an extra one in 2015
I watch most of those shows. Last Week Tonight is my favorite. It's the funniest one ...and the most informative imo
I love that he thanks his wife in every speech. So sweet and lovely ❤❤❤❤
Excellent clip. Loved everything in it.

Congratulations to the Last Week Tonight show for yet another win! Well deserved! Keep it up!
What about Trevooorrrrrr,come on guys,he deserves it☹️☹️☹️☹️
Shout out to the researchers and writers to this show.
I knew they would win again but I still held onto hope that Seth’s crew would win…
This category only exists to award John!
YES Last Week Tonight keeps earning it.
Now I wonder if I'll live long enough to see the day when Colbert's finally beat Oliver at the Emmys. 😝
He said fuck on TV and it wasn't censored. I found that interesting.
Well, yeah he fucking says fuck all the time, god fucking damn it.
He forgot he wasn't on HBO this time, I think 😂

I love that he seems surprised.
When they were showing the nominees, I think I was most excited to see Evie Colbert!!
I searched up seth meyers to see if he had an upload today and it showed this link to Jon Oliver getting an emmy instead.
I love ♥️this Dude and Kathy Griffin so much, my two favorite comedians
Just make a "Comedians desperately trying to save the world and teach us important things" - category for LWT to win.
Then Seth can finally have a chance to win this one.
But Jokes aside, my sincere congratulations to the staff of LWT! Absolutely deserved win and thank you all so much for your passion and hard work. I appreciate it very much 💐
Love John Oliver but it have been Colbert - the crowd knew it too!
He really didn"t know he was going to win.
Martin's Documentation of the process can clearly be relied upon 😅😂
Hmmm, Fallon wasn’t even considered 🤔 😂 of course not
Because he hates politics and just wants fun, personally I love him more than anyone of these hosts
because the tonight show has been dead since conan left it
I would never understand how Craig Ferguson didn't win an Emmy for his show
Martin Always make me laugh 😂
Don’t care who won but Colbert got the loudest applause!!❤
I guessing next year will be John Oliver again
just rename the category to the John Oliver award lol, it’s a sweep just like the old Daily Show, two unstoppable forces
He is the best. I'm a Libertarian, and I love his work.
how can you be a libertarian and be in awe of somebody who is way out left?
7 years in a row and they've only been giving awards for this category for 8!
2:53 Guy in the back could have used any finger he wanted to. hehe
Lmfao true, big mad, but colbert show is ass
And the 'Oliver' award goes to John Oliver. Perfectly reasonable
He wins every year 🏆🏆🏆🏆
why did John look surprised when Selena said his name? they win it every year.
Why didn't John Oliver mentioned Senela Gomez name 😕
even Colbert is clapping for him like yeah dude, this is your award. :D
Should have had the stars of Law and Order give him the award since he ripped the show on Sunday Night
God, what a great team these three are, I never would've thought they'd complement each other this well.
Go John ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
I bet Jimmy Kimmel just wants knock those glasses right off of Olivers face for winning every.... freaking.... year
It says stop, now, lol
You can’t write “stop now” at John, with what?! You gotta be more specific! 😂
Steven Colbert. And Seth have the best lines from their production.
Selena is a literal queen
You heard the crowd's applause and who they wanted to win, right?!?
Trevor wasn't even been mentioned in the comments.
Of course it's always John Oliver... surprise surprise
Who is that person in the blue dress at 00:21? So familiar but I just can't place her....
SM and MS are the best
Reverse Mortgages are awesome! Hilarious joke!
Fuckin Tom Brady of Late night variety 🐐
John has built an amazing show that I have to tune into week after week.
And what about Jimmy Fallon, love his show
Selena is an angel
❤️
John Oliver didn't know where to point his nose when he got on the stage because Steve's Martin nose was in the way
There's something so wrong about seeing John Oliver with gray hair.
I totally agree
I love love love John Oliver ... but still sad that Trevor Noah, Colbert, Kimmel and Seth Meyers go home without an Emmy year after year. He's great but I don't think this makes sense.
What the fresh hell does John Oliver have on the television academy?

Why are yall talking about John Oliver instead of the golden trio before him
@televisionacademy I get it if The Emmy was for "Doing the LEAST amount of shows a year", or the Emmy for "This show doesn't even hit double digits in a season", but an Emmy because he's got an accent and does the odd stunt? It's insulting to the other shows that have people working non-stop to create a full year of work.
Every year though?
RIGHT
Did you have the same sentiment when Jon Steward won 11 consecutive times??
im surprised Stephen didn't win but john is good too lol
Does HBO pay for these Emmy's?
I guess the question is, who will win it the year that LWT doesn't win it?
How many of those does he have?
love u Selena!!!!
how is there a category with jimmy kimmel and john oliver in the same place
I know, right? What the hell is Kimmel doing anywhere in the list? Not really that funny... Just kind of crass.
Please put a preservation order on Martin Short..
Jimmy Fallon was not nominated?
Stephen Colbert deserved more
YNWA, John.
The only 😂
John oliver clearly forgot to thank me...
