'Mad Men' Wins for Fourth Straight YearSept. 18, 2011 11:00 PM EDT
It’s TV’s biggest night, and, once again, Mad Men's. The show won best drama for the fourth straight year. In the best comedy category, Modern Family won for the second straight year. The sitcom's fictional couple, Ty Burrell and Julie Bowen, won for best supporting comedy actor and actress, respectively, and the show's director and writers also took home top honors. The awards show, hosted by Jane Lynch, wasn't kind to Steve Carell—again. The actor lost in the category of lead actor in a comedy series to The Big Bang Theory's Jim Parsons. Mike and Molly's Melissa McCarthy, who had a scene-stealing role in Bridesmaids, won the award for best actress in a comedy. Meanwhile, Mad Men star Jon Hamm has yet to take home an award for his role on the show, losing this year to Friday Night Lights's Kyle Chandler. In the best actress in a drama category, Julianna Margulies took home the trophy for The Good Wife and Kate Winslet won best actress in a miniseries for Mildred Pierce. The U.K. smash hit Downton Abbey won best miniseries.
