The results of the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards are in, and — for a change, in the current climate — the ceremony was relatively free of political drama.
HBO and Netflix both tied with 23 awards each, with Game of Thrones grabbing a bevy of trophies, scoring a total of nine awards, including Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for Peter Dinklage, as well as various technical and artistic awards.
Elsewhere, Amazon's The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel won Outstanding Comedy Series, while The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story took the Outstanding Limited Series gong. Other favorites, including Black Mirror, Rick and Morty, and Netflix's Wild Wild Country, also left the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles with a golden statue in their mitts.
