Hacks won for Outstanding Directing For A Comedy Series, Outstanding Lead Actress In A Comedy Series, and Outstanding Writing For A Comedy Series.
The show follows Smart who plays a legendary famous standup comedian named Deborah Vance.
As Vance is getting older and the times have changed Einbinder comes in as the character Ava who helps Vance rewrite her shows.
“To salvage her waning career, legendary Las Vegas comedian Deborah Vance is forced to team up with an entitled, outcast television writer in this hilariously dark comedy series,” the HBO Max description reads.
The stars of Hacks include Jean Smart, Hannah Einbinder, Carl Clemons-Hopkins, and Paul W. Downs.
Smart, 70, is known for other roles in TV and film from Designing Women, Mare of Easttown, and more.
Einbinder, 26, much like her character is a newcomer in the entertainment industry.
Her IMDb profile lists only three other projects: North Hollywood, How to Be Broke, and I Might Be Famous.
Clemons-Hopkins has been seen in the films Moonlight, and Canal Street.
Downs who is also in Hacks not only plays Jimmy LuSaque but is also one of the show creators.
Downs is widely known for his character Trey on the Comedy Central series Broad City.
Jen Statsky and Lucia Aniello also co-created the series with Downs.
Season two of Hacks can be watched on HBO Max and the HBO network with a valid cable plan.
