DTF St. Louis,” HBO’s miniseries about a hookup app at the core of a lurid murder mystery, won the Emmy for limited series.

The seven-episode drama was considered a front-runner in the category, earning 13 nominations as well as critical acclaim and impressive ratings. Its momentum escalated after David Harbour and Linda Cardellini won supporting acting trophies, and creator Steven Conrad scored writing and directing honors at an Emmys ceremony earlier this month.

“I’m so proud to be able to speak on behalf of an extraordinary crew and cast,” Conrad said in his acceptance speech. “We are all grateful to say thank you to our families — our children, partners and parents. ... And on behalf of the 175 people who were on ‘DTF. St. Louis,’ we are all grateful, and each send our great appreciation.”
