I love the fact that they turned the music off after John Oliver cursed at them!

[kingace]

He dominated the awards for so long, they had to give him a separate category to be nice to the other talk shows.

Husband - no! his name is Hudson!
...and Mrs Oliver fighting back tears - priceless shit right here

[ToddBlackToddTalk]

John Oliver deserves all the awards. I look forward to every episode of his show.

Outside of the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, John Oliver makes me laugh the most when it comes to politics. The writing on his show and his delivery really stand out as the highest level of this genre of comedy. He brings out the truth on very serious topics and has me laughing my ass off in the process. Well deserved John and company! 🎉 👏

There was a minute, 16 seconds long introduction that could’ve been shorter to make time for the goodest of puppers.

I love John Oliver, he's a master class of humor and intuition and kindness and the most vicious of English wit. Even getting played off, he has the sharpest wit that made me go "JOHN!!" out loud at the very end! Well deserved award indeed

[viviorko]

Is it time we call this the John Oliver Award?

[rebel.taylord]

I love that he honor his dog, such a thoughtful and kind man. Pets are family!

[brianmoore]

fantastic farewell to his friend. John Oliver knows what is important. My dog Cheddy got us through covid and then was gone.

Oliver gives AF

Messing up your kid's name. That's DEFINITELY coming back to haunt you, John Oliver. 😆 Congrats on the Emmy win! 😊

[kefinkamed]

This just may be the best acceptance speech of all time 👏❤️

[LSSYLondon]

This is going to go down as one of the most memorable Emmy acceptance speeches ever.

[BuzzerBob]

I love it when we get the uncensored version!

[garrincha]

"They are eating the dogs!" 😂

[crystalkarma]

Now that brought a tear to my eye. I love JO.

[alvinmathew]

They backed tracked that music SO FAST

[Goblinkatie]

I would hate to be the person who told them to start the music only to realize that he was dedicating the award to his dead dog and all dogs everywhere. That had to be mortifying. 😂
