emmy-winners-2014-breaking-bad-modern-family

The 2014 Emmy winners were announced and apart from the usual array of snubs, there were simply not that many surprises. It was a particularly good year for veteran television series. "Breaking Bad" swept the dramatic categories, winning Best Series, Best Actor (Bryan Cranston for a fourth time), Supporting nods for Aaron Paul and Anna Gunn, as well as Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series. This meant that "True Detective" missed out on most major awards, especially for Matthew McConaughey who many expected to add an Emmy to his hot streak of awards this year. Julianna Marguiles took home her second Emmy award for her performance as Alicia Florick in "The Good Wife".

On the comedy front, "Modern Family" won Best Series for a fifth consecutive year, matching the previously held record of "Frasier". In the miniseries categories, "Fargo" won Outstanding Miniseries and Outstanding Directing, while "American Horror Story: Coven" took home the awards for Outstanding Lead Actress (Jessica Lange) and Supporting Actress (Kathy Bates). This year was also great for "Sherlock", which scored three wins: Outstanding Lead Actor (Benedict Cumberbatch), Outstanding Writing (Steven Moffat) and Outstanding Supporting Actor (Martin Freeman).

pga-awards-tie-12-years-a-slave-gravity

I personally though that this year's Producers Guild Awards could settle the dispute of which movie has the definitive chance to win the Best Picture Oscar, since in the past six years, the PGA have accurately matched the Oscar winners. Well, that's all in the past now. The PGA announced the winners last night, and in an unprecedented move "12 Years a Slave" and "Gravity" were tied for Best Picture. After "American Hustle" won top honors at the SAG awards, many predicted that David O. Russell's film would also score a win at the PGA, but that clearly wasn't the case. Now, the Oscars race is wide open and predictions are going to be very tough to make.

Disney's "Frozen" won the Best Animated Feature award and "We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks" won in the Documentary category. In television, "Breaking Bad", "Modern Family" and "Behind the Candelabra" won top honors.

Last night "Argo" took home yet another Guild award, the Writers Guild Award for Best Adapted Screenplay (for writer Chris Terrio).

Both the Producers Guild and the Screen Actors Guild announced the winners and it seems that the Oscar chances for Ben Affleck's "Argo" have increased dramatically. The true story drama won the PGA award for Best Picture and the SAG award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. "Argo" has already secured the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture (Drama) and Best Director, so Affleck's third directorial outing is currently the favorite for the Best Picture Oscar, although Affleck himself has not been nominated for the Best Director award by the Academy. The only other picture in Oscar history to win Best Picture without a nomination for Best Director was "Driving Miss Daisy" in 1990. Other PGA winners include "Homeland", "Game Change" and "Modern Family" while the actors who took home trophies from the Screen Actors Guild include Daniel Day-Lewis, Jennifer Lawrence, Tommy Lee Jones and Anne Hathaway

The winners of the 2012 Primetime Emmy Awards have been announced and the big winners are "Homeland" (6 wins out of 9 nominations) and "Modern Family" (5 wins out of 14 nominations). The latter has won the award for Outstanding Comedy Series for a third consecutive year. "Homeland" was something of a surprise hit, bringing home the awards for Outstanding Drama Series, Outstanding Casting for a Drama Series, Lead Actor (Damian Lewis), Lead Actress (Claire Danes) and Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series (for the Pilot episode). Add the two Golden Globes that the series won at the beginning of this year and the expectations for the upcoming season have just blown the roof off.

On the other hand, "Modern Family" was something of a sure thing. The comedy series won, besides the Best Series award, Outstanding Directing in a Comedy Series, Supporting Actor (Eric Stonestreet) and Supporting Actress (Julie Bowen). For Stonestreet and Bowen this is their second win in the supporting category.

Other Emmy winners include Julia Louis-Dreyfus for "Veep", Jon Cryer for "Two and a Half Men", Aaron Paul for "Breaking Bad", Maggie Smith for "Downton Abbey" and Jessica Lange for her insanely delicious/creepy supporting turn in "American Horror Story".

In the miniseries category, the HBO political drama "Game Change" won 5 major awards, including the awards for Outstanding Miniseries, Directing (Jay Roach), Writing and Lead Actress (Julianne Moore). Tied with "Game Change", but lacking in major awards, is "Hatfields & McCoys", which took home 3 technical awards (Editing, Makeup and Sound Mixing) as well as Outstanding Lead Actor (Kevin Costner) and Supporting Actor (Tom Berenger).

The 2012 Emmy Nominations are in and they offer no real major surprises, as most of last year's award-friendly TV shows such as "Boardwalk Empire", "The Good Wife", "Modern Family", "Mad Men", "Game of Thrones", "Downton Abbey" and "Breaking Bad" have earned multiple noms across most categories (full list below). The new series debuting this year at the Emmys are "Homeland" and "American Horror Story", the latter being nominated in the TV Miniseries category alongside "Luther", which earned Idris Elba an Emmy nomination and a Golden Globe Award last year.

"Modern Family" is one of the biggest hits out there at the moment, earning no less than 8 major nominations and sweeping the acting categories, where pretty much the entire cast earned a nomination. Last year, the series took home the award for Outstanding Comedy Series and became one of the rare comedy shows to earn this honor two years in a row (ABC's second since "Taxi"). Will they go for lucky three and break the all-time record ?

The Writers Guild Awards winners have been announced and it sets the record straight when it comes to predicting who will win the screenplay Oscars on the 26th of February. Contrary to what you might expect, "The Artist" did not win the WGA award, mainly because it wasn't even nominated. Yeah, a shocker, I know. The Guild's award for Original Screenplay went to Woody Allen for "Midnight in Paris". The other nominees in the category were : "50/50", "Bridesmaids", "Win Win" and "Young Adult". In the Adapted Screenplay category, Alexander Payne, Nat Faxon and Jim Rash won for "The Descendants". This category featured some stiff competition as well : "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", "The Help", "Hugo", and "Moneyball". The television writing awards included sure-bet winners, like "Modern Family" (two awards), but also some surprises : "Breaking Bad" and "Homeland" each won two awards and actually shared the award in one of the categories (Episodic Drama).
