Emmys 2016: 15 Memorable Moments From the Show8 of 15
“You Guys Are In Trouble”
In one of unintentionally shortest speeches in Emmy history, Aziz Ansari was played off after just a few words. Accepting the Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, his "Master Of None" collaborator Alan Yang said: "There's 17 million Asian-Americans in this country, and there's 17 million Italian-Americans. They have The Godfather, Goodfellas, Rocky, The Sopranos. We got Long Duk Dong, so we got a long way to go. But I know we can get there."
But as the former "Parks and Recreation" star stepped up to say thanks, he was played off and Ansari ran off stage with a lighthearted, “Oh man, you guys are in trouble.”
