Weird: The Al Yankovic Story won outstanding television movie on Saturday (Jan. 6), night one of the long-delayed 2023 Primetime Emmy Creative Arts Awards. The Emmys were originally set for September, but were postponed because of strikes by Hollywood writers and actors.

In taking the award for outstanding television movie, the final award of the night, Weird beat Dolly Parton’s Mountain Magic Christmas, Hocus Pocus 2 (reuniting Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy), Fire Island and Prey. Parton won in the category two years ago with Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square.

As a producer of Weird, Weird Al Yankovic won his first Primetime Emmy. Weird won an additional award for outstanding music composition for a limited or anthology series, movie or special (original dramatic score) but that award went to the composers, Leo Birenberg and Zach Robinson.

Pop music titans Ed Sheeran and Max Martin, along with Foy Vance, won their first Primetime Emmys. They took the award for outstanding original music and lyrics for “A Beautiful Game,” which they wrote for an episode of Ted Lasso.

Danny Elfman won outstanding original main title theme music for Wednesday. It’s his third Primetime Emmy, following awards for Desperate Housewives (2005) and Danny Elfman’s Music from the Films of Tim Burton (Live From Lincoln Center) (2016).

Cristobal Tapia de Veer won outstanding music composition for a series (original dramatic score) for his work on The White Lotus. It’s the Chilean-born Canadian composer’s third Primetime Emmy in the past two years for his work on that buzzy show.

Winners in five of the seven music categories were announced on night one of the Creative Arts Awards, which took place at the Peacock Theater at L.A. Live in Los Angeles. Winners in the other two music categories will be announced on night two of the Creative Arts Awards on Sunday (Jan 7). The main Primetime Emmy telecast will air on Monday, Jan. 15, at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT on FOX – nearly four months after the originally planned date (Sept. 18).

The Last of Us was the top winner on night one of the Creative Arts Emmys, with eight awards, followed by The Bear, Wednesday and The White Lotus, with four wins each. BEEF was next with three awards, followed by Daisy Jones & The Six, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Ted Lasso and Weird: The Al Yankovic Story with two each.

An edited presentation of the awards presented on both nights of the Creative Arts Emmys will air Saturday, Jan. 13 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT on FXX and will be available for streaming on Hulu on Sunday, Jan. 14.
