The Emmys site has it up now:

The 75th Emmy Awards' "In Memoriam" segment is meant to be a celebratory part of the show that honors those who we've lost in the year before, but this year's left people unable to pull it together, namely because of "so many amazing entertainers" that were "lost in the past year."
Charlie Puth took the stage with his emotional goodbye track, "See You Again," which eventually transitioned into what someone on the internet referred to as the "saddest ever version of the 'Friends' theme song for Matthew Perry."
Naturally, Perry's unexpected death received the biggest reaction on social media, with one fan saying that the moment his photo popped up had them "instantly crying."
"The In Memoriam was hard to watch. I cried," another user exclaimed, mentioning plenty of hard-hitting deaths from the course of the year such as Three's Company actress Suzanne Somers, Leslie Jordan, Stephen 'tWitch' Boss, and Len Goodman.
"That In Memoriam was brutal… Did we really lose so many amazing people this past year?" yet another person questioned.
The praise was high with one viewer calling it "easily the best in memoriam I've ever seen. I can't be the only one who got a little choked up, wow! Great job."
The tribute segment encompassed a wide range of talented performers—actors, writers, executives, producers and directors—gone too soon, including TV producer/screenwriter Norman Lear, Euphoria actor Angus Cloud, The Cleaning Lady's Adan Canto, actress Annie Wersching, Beauty and the Beast actress Angela Lansbury, This Is Us star Ron Cephas Jones, Everwood's Treat Williams and John Beasley, NCIS' David McCallum, Brooklyn Nine-Nine alum Andre Braugher, actor and civil rights activist Harry Belafonte, actress Kirstie Alley, The Price is Right host Bob Barker, journalist Barbara Walters, Little Miss Sunshine actor Alan Arkin, comedian Paul Reubens, and many more.
The rescheduled 75th Creative Arts Emmy Awards, which aired on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Monday, Jan. 15, was originally slated to broadcast on Sept. 18, 2023, but was pushed back due to the ongoing actors'/writers' strike at the time.

I'm doing a Friends rewatch. I'm on season 8 and him and Monica just got married. I know it's a cheesy show and I was kind of annoyed with them by the end but I'm actually really enjoying it this time around 🥺
