Hit show Glee won three nods including Program of the Year and Outstanding New Program.
Creator Ryan Murphy however said that the greatest achievement of the show is its effect. He shared that he received letters from teachers saying “they can’t cut my program now, because [thanks to Glee] my program now has gone from seven members to forty.”
The winners for Individual Achievements for comedy and drama went to Jane Lynch and Julianna Margulies respectively. Women rarely get nominated in these categories so this year was a record for being the first time that both citations were won by women.
For outstanding drama series, Lost, which already ended after six seasons tied up with Breaking Bad defeating two-time winner Mad Men.
Another moment was also highlighted when Jim Winokur accepted the Career Achievement Award for friend James Garner. He said, “I wish I could tell you Jim is sorry he couldn’t be here, but he hates these things.”
