David Harbour won his first Emmy for best supporting actor in a limited or anthology series or movie for HBO’s DTF St. Louis, praising Steven Conrad’s writing and HBO’s notes that helped shape the show, and defeating co‑stars Richard Jenkins, Jason Bateman, Richard Gadd, Charles Melton and Nick Offerman.
The HBO Max limited series DTF St. Louis ends with Floyd Smernitch’s death revealed as a suicide, not a murder, as the show shifts from crime solving to a meditation on loneliness, debt, and imperfect relationships, with Richard’s impulsive action in the poolhouse and Clark’s escalating isolation shaping the finale's bittersweet note.
IndieWire lauds HBO's seven-episode limited series DTF St. Louis as a funny, sharp murder mystery that doubles as a intimate character study of suburban desire. The show follows Clark (Bateman) and Floyd (Harbour) whose flirtation with a risqué dating app spirals into a murder investigation led by Det. Jodie Plumb and Det. Homer, exposing hidden selves and shifting perspectives. With Bateman delivering a nuanced, ambiguous lead, Harbour’s charm, Cardellini’s restraint, and Steven Conrad’s deft direction, the series blends humor, sex-therapy themes, and moral ambiguity into a stylish, emotionally honest thriller. Premieres March 1 on HBO, with new episodes weekly through April 12.
