@scriptinmotion: Jean Smart kicked off the 2026 Emmy Awards by making history. The 75-year-old veteran actress won the eighth Emmy of her career for her work in the fifth and final season of Hacks. But the numbers don’t stop there. Jean Smart also became the first woman to win an acting Emmy for every season of a completed television series. With this latest victory, she is now tied for the record for the most acting Emmys won by a single performer. And Jean Smart isn’t alone in this journey. Hannah Einbinder, who plays Ava Daniels, was also nominated at the 2026 Emmys for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. She had already won the award in 2025, earning her first Emmy for her work on Hacks. The fifth and final season of Hacks was one of the biggest highlights among the 2026 Emmy nominees. With 24 nominations, the production starring Jean Smart broke an Emmy record, becoming the comedy series with the most nominations in a single year.
