, Washington correspondent

Everyone was waiting for "Game of Thrones" and "Veep". It was finally the series "Fleabag" that shone on Sunday, September 22 in Los Angeles, at the 71st edition of the Emmy Awards.

The ceremony, which rewards the best TV series of the year, has certainly won "Game of Thrones", whose eighth and final season ended in the spring, best drama series.

But the price of the best comic series has returned to the British series "Fleabag". Her creator, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, staged several shows on Sunday night as she also received the Emmy Awards for Best Actress and Best Director for a comedy series. She thus styled at the post Julia Louis-Dreyfus, left empty despite the last season of the masterful series "Veep".

Billy Porter best drama actor

Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who has more than one string to her bow, is also the creator of "Killing Eve". For this critically acclaimed series, Jodie Comer received the Emmy Award for best actress for a dramatic series for her role as a killer.

On the men's side, it's Billy Porter who won the statuette for best actor in a drama series, for his role in the FX series "Pose", which explores the world of transsexual balls in New York in the 1980s.

Among the other series that stand out, the mini-series "Chernobyl", HBO, was also rewarded. Just like the other mini-series event this year, "In Their Eyes", produced by Netflix: actor Jharrel Jerome, just 21, got a statuette for brilliantly performing one of five young black men or Hispanics wrongly accused of rape in New York.

The evening had some strong moments, especially during the speech of Michelle Williams, rewarded for her role in the series "Fosse / Verdon". The actress, very committed to the issue, delivered a plea for equal pay between men and women. She called on producers to "listen" to the "needs" of women "to do their job".
