Seth Rogen's freshman comedy series The Studio won big at the Emmys 2025, taking home 12 awards, including acting and directing wins for Rogen. The series broke the all-time record for most wins for a comedy series in a season (and in its first season).

The ceremony, which was hosted by comedian Nate Bargatze, was a huge win for Apple TV+. While Severance became the most-nominated TV series, with 27 nods, Rogen's The Studio bagged 23 nominations, tying with the record set by FX's comedy series The Bear in 2024.

Seth Rogen started the winning streak for The Studio at Emmys 2025 and took home the shining trophy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series. As the night got more entertaining, Apple TV+'s freshman comedy series continued this winning streak and took home 12 trophies.

In addition to his acting win, Seth Rogen also won the Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series for the episode “The Oner”, which he shared with Evan Goldberg. To round up its 12 award wins, The Studio also won the Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series for the Pilot episode, which was penned by Rogen, Goldberg, Frida Perez, Peter Huyck, and Alex Gregory.
