Emmy Award Winners - It's a "Mad" and "Modern" TV World

The Emmy's were on Sunday night in case you missed them (I missed some, just couldn't take my eyes off of "Breaking Bad")...Not too many surprises, although if you've never watched "Friday Night Lights" Kyle Chandler winning might be one. "Mad Men" won its fourth "Outstanding Drama Series" award, placing the show in the company of past fourpeaters "Hill Street Blues" and "The West Wing," which both won four in a row, as well as "LA Law," which won four in five years. No show has ever won five in a row, so next year "Mad Men" will make that attempt, but with some (probable) stiff competition from the likes of "Breaking Bad," "Game of Thrones" and "Boardwalk Empire."

There were some glaring snubs though. While I think Jim Parsons and Chandler are great on their respective shows, this was the year for Steve Carell and Jon Hamm to finally win. The whole drama category for male actors was lucky that "Breaking Bad" premiered so late and was ineligible for this years awards, because there's no doubt that Bryan Cranston will pick up his fourth win in fivey ears when the awards roll around next year...But I digress...Also props to Jon Stewart and "The Daily Show".....Here are the winners:
