30 Rock! This show pretty much cleaned up in the Comedy categories at last nights 60th Annual Prime time Emmy Awards but a few other shows got a look in:

Outstanding drama series Mad Men
Outstanding comedy series 30 Rock
Outstanding host for a reality or reality-competition programme Jeff Probst for Survivor
Outstanding lead actress in a comedy series Tina Fey for 30 Rock
Outstanding lead actor in a drama series Bryan Cranston for Breaking Bad
Outstanding lead actress in a drama series Glenn Close for Damages
Outstanding lead actor in a comedy series Alec Baldwin for 30 Rock
Outstanding lead actor in a mini-series or movie Paul Giamatti for John Adams
Outstanding mini-series John Adams
Outstanding reality competition programme The Amazing Race
Outstanding supporting actress in a mini-series or movie Eileen Atkins for Cranford

Glenn Close won best actress in a drama series
Outstanding made for television movie Recount

Outstanding lead actress in a mini-series or movie Laura Linney for John Adams

Glad to see Jeremy Piven got recognized for his portrayal of OTT agent Ari Gold in Entourage. Other than that well done to John Adams, I think that kind of mini series always stokes the Patriotic fires and I was especially pleased to see the excellent Cranford honored.
