A notorious crime family, a fictional sketch-comedy show, an iconic singer and a female British detective were among the big winners at the 59th Primetime Emmy Awards, which took place at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, hosted by American Idol’s Ryan Seacrest on September 16th.
The Sopranos, HBO’s acclaimed production about the travails of a New Jersey Mob boss and his intertwined biological and criminal families, took the prize for Outstanding Drama Series, while 30 Rock, NBC’s look at the backstage activity at a late-night sketch-comedy show, was named Outstanding Comedy Series. The NBC special Tony Bennett: An American Classic, the AMC miniseries Broken Trail and the PBS Masterpiece Theatre production Prime Suspect: The Final Act led the recipients of multiple awards with three each.
The ABC comedy Ugly Betty took two awards, including Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for its star, America Ferrera, and Ricky Gervais, creator and star of HBO’s Extras, took Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series.
James Spader, of ABC’s law-firm saga Boston Legal, took the award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, and Sally Field, of ABC’s Brothers & Sisters, was named Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series.
