FX series’ “ The Bear ” just broke its own record for the most Primetime Emmys won by a comedy series in a single year, scoring 11 trophies during the 76th Emmys. (Last year, it won 10)

Sunday night wins included lead comedy actor (Jeremy Allen White, as Carmy), supporting comedy actor (Ebon Moss-Bachrach, as Richard “Richie” Jerimovich), supporting comedy actress (Liza Colón-Zayas, as Tina) and directing (Christopher Storer for “Fishes” or Ramy Youssef for “Honeydew”).

“The Bear” Season 2 had already won seven Creative Arts Emmys last weekend. Wins included Jamie Lee Curtis (as Donna Berzatto) and Jon Bernthal (as Michael Berzatto), who won guest comedy actress and guest comedy actor, respectively, for the episode “Fishes”; and outstanding casting for a comedy series (won by Jeanue Bacharach, Maggie Bacharach, Jenifer Rudnicke, Mickie Paskal and AJ Links).

“The Bear” is set in Chicago and allows the city itself to act as one of the show's main characters in several ways. You'll spot iconic skyline shots of the city, enjoy music from local musicians, such as Mavis Staples, and see plenty examples of Chicago's most beloved eats.
