James Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke: When Corden Met McCartney Live From Liverpool” beat Bruce Springsteen and Beyonce to win the Emmy for pre-recorded variety special at the Primetime Creative Arts Emmys, which were handed out on Saturday night in downtown Los Angeles.
“Live in Front of a Studio Audience: Norman Lear’s ‘All in the Family’ and ‘The Jeffersons'” won the award for live variety special, making the 97-year-old Lear the oldest winner in Emmy history.
In a ceremony devoted largely to nonfiction and reality television, the big winner was “Free Solo,” the NatGeo rock-climbing documentary that won an Oscar in February but also qualified for the Emmys. The film by Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin won seven awards, taking home Emmys for its directing, cinematography, sound mixing, sound editing, picture editing, musical score and creative achievement in interactive media.

Netflix is taking the early lead at this year’s Emmys race, with six wins, thanks to the Television Academy’s juried award winners for animation, choreography, interactive programming and motion design, which were announced on Friday.
The outstanding individual achievement in animation category, a “juried” prize that means several, one or no winners could be named, wound up with eight honorees this year: Five from Netflix and three from YouTube.
Also landing its first-ever Emmy was Twitch, the live streaming platform popular in the gaming community and owned by Amazon. Twitch landed an Emmy for outstanding innovation in interactive media, for “Artificial.”
The CW, which is often snubbed by the Academy in general nominations, is the first linear network out the gate with an Emmy: “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” won the first-ever juried prize for outstanding choreography for scripted programming. Choreographer Kathryn Burns won the award, making it her second Emmy.

“Do you know how many children I see every day who’ve cut off their faces playing with swords? None! Because they all have parents who love them and who don’t let them play around with deadly weapons like some sort of gang member!”
Strong art direction can make even a mediocre episode of Steven Universe sing, and while ‘Nightmare Hospital’ offers thin plot and implausible characterization, it also dishes out one of the most visually immersive episodes the series has done to date. The long, warped corridors of the titular hospital buzz with uneven fluorescent lighting while rapid footsteps echo through the gloom. Greens, browns, beiges, and greys blend into an inhospitable but uncomfortably naturalistic palette that makes everyone look simultaneously ill and like an interloper in a hushed mausoleum. Hallways stretch on forever, distorted by perspective. Figures rush through enormous spaces as though nervous about lingering too long.

“Get open, get honest. That’s fusion.”
Most shows with fantasy conceits similar to fusion use it as part of an ongoing game of power creep, ratcheting up the stakes by combining existing characters into newer, shoutier, more powerful versions of themselves. Leave it to Steven Universe to make it an expression of connection and love, a sort-of-but-not-quite metaphor for both sex and emotional intimacy. Getting into what fusion means to the Gems while exploring the formation and growing pains of Greg and Rose’s romance is a great synthesis of theme and story.
The tone in ‘We Need To Talk’ is close and breathless, evoking the confusion of early connection and infatuation. When Connie and Steven fuse during an impromptu moment of fun outside Greg’s van, memories of Greg’s own experiences with fusion come rushing back. The flashback opens, much as ‘Story for Steven’ did, with a song.
