Breaking Bad' and ‘Modern Family' were the big winners at the Emmys last night. Breaking bad concludes later this month and the show picked up an award for best drama and actress Anna Gunn who plays Skylar White won best Supporting Actress.
Modern Family won best comedy and Homelands Claire Danes picked up her second Emmy for her role of CIA agent Carrie Mathison.
Meanwhile Newsroom actor Jeff Daniels and Nurse Jackie star Meritt Wever won for best actor in a drama and best supporting actress in a comedy.
Micheal Douglas who's going through a really hard time right now as he's in the middle of his separation from Catherine Zeta Jones was thrilled to win best actor in a miniseries or movie for his role as Liberace in Behind the Candelabra. The Steven Soderbergh film aired on HBO in the US, making it eligible for the Emmys rather than the Oscars. Michael had a good laugh thanking his behind the Candelabra co star Matt Damon, of course they were lovers on screenÂ…..
It was touching too as Michael thanked his wife Catherine and mentioned his son Cameron who's in prison for drug related crimes. He spent two years in solitary confinement and the judge has pretty much doubled his sentence after he was caught committing more drug crimes behind barsÂ…Â…Â…Â….
Triubtes were paid to late ‘Glee' actor Cory Monteith and ‘The Sopranos' James Gandolfini.
James' former on-screen wife Edie Falco led a tribute to him, while ‘Glee' actress Jane Lynch led a tribute to Cory, who died in July.
