So, the Emmys went pretty much as you would expect - fairly routine winners, emotional speeches, a few shocking moments here and there. Host Jimmy Kimmel was… fine, winning over the crowd with some genuinely funny bits (Matt Damon mocking him for losing in his category) more often than he struck out with lame ones (feeding the audience peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.)
FX’s critically acclaimed “The People v. O.J. Simpson” miniseries dominated the Emmy Awards, winning five trophies including limited series, along with acting wins for Sarah Paulson, Sterling K. Brown and Courtney B. Vance. HBO’s unstoppable “Game of Thrones” also had a great night, picking up the best drama trophy for the second year in a row.
