MAD MEN won it's third straight award for best drama, completing a sweep along with its Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild awards, also three years in a row for each. It is quite simply the most addictive drama on tv. MODERN FAMILY replaced 30 ROCK after its three wins in a row as best comedy.
Bryan Cranston won his third in a row for lead actor in BREAKING BAD, while his co-star Aaron Paul got his first for supporting actor. (Don't know about you but this Paul guys gives me the creeps..)
HBO's film TEMPLE GRADIN won five Emmys, including best actress for lead Clare Danes; it's her first Emmy, maybe her first major award. Temple herself, an autistic vet, shared the stage when it won for outstanding movie.
The Tom Hanks-Steven Spielberg co-produced war series THE PACIFIC, a counterpart to their BAND OF BROTHERS miniseries about WW2 in Europe, won for outstanding miniseries. (Don't know what they spent on this, but Band's budget was reportedly 100 million).
THE DAILY SHOW with Jon Stewart won it's 8th Emmy in a row.
John Lithgow's especially creepy homicidal performance on DEXTER was rewarded, as was director Steve Shill.
