Keep it locked to Nerdcore Movement on Monday night as we bring you the best Emmys coverage for 2014 with all of the biggest winners and losers from the show….
The show has kicked off from Los Angeles. Make sure to refresh often as we update the latest winners and losers from all the major categories.
First award of the evening – OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTOR IN A COMEDY
Winner: Ty Burrell — ‘Modern Family’
OUTSTANDING WRITING IN A COMEDY SERIES:
Winner: Louis C.K. — ‘Louis’
— It’s clear that Jimmy Kimmel has a thing for Matthew McConaughey given the five minutes he just spent talking to the actor while constantly saying ‘you’re a movie star why are you at a TV awards show?!?’. He did give a nice tribute to Tracy Morgan towards the end.
OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A COMEDY SERIES:
Winner: Allison Janney — ‘Mom’
OUTSTANDING DIRECTING IN A COMEDY SERIES:
Winner: Gail Mancuso — ‘Modern Family’
OUTSTANDING LEAD ACTOR IN A COMEDY SERIES:
Winner: Jim Parsons — ‘The Big Bang Theory’
ANALYSIS: Jim Parsons seems like he’s going to be a lock for this award so long as ‘The Big Bang Theory’ stays on top. He’s wonderful playing Dr. Sheldon Cooper, although it would be nice to see some of his co-stars get a little recognition as well, not that it’s his fault the awards aren’t nominating them.
OUTSTANDING LEAD ACTRESS IN A COMEDY SERIES:
Winner: Julia Louis-Dreyfus — ‘Veep’
Highlight of the show so far — Julia Louis-Dreyfus makes out with Bryan Cranston after realizing they once starred on ‘Seinfeld’ together. Hilarious moment.
OUTSTANDING REALITY COMPETITION PROGRAM:
Winner: The Amazing Race
OUTSTANDING WRITING IN A MINISERIES OR MOVIE:
Winner: Steven Moffat — ‘Sherlock’
OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A MINISERIES OR MOVIE:
Winner: Kathy Bates — ‘American Horror Story: Coven’
OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTOR IN A MINISERIES OR MOVIE:
Winner: Martin Freeman — ‘Sherlock’
OUTSTANDING DIRECTING IN A MINISERIES OR MOVIE:
Winner: Colin Bucksey — ‘Fargo’
OUTSTANDING LEAD ACTOR IN A MINISERIES OR MOVIE:
Winner: Benedict Cumberbatch — ‘Sherlock’
ANALYSIS: There’s one of the first big upsets of the night. It seemed as if Billy Bob Thornton was a shoe in for this award, but ‘Sherlock’ is taking home a whole bunch tonight. In my humble opinion as good as Benedict Cumberbatch is as ‘Sherlock’, he didn’t do better than Billy Bob in ‘Fargo’.
OUTSTANDING LEAD ACTRESS IN A MINISERIES OR MOVIE:
Winner: Jessica Lange — ‘American Horror Story: Coven’
OUTSTANDING MINISERIES:
Winner: Fargo
OUTSTANDING TELEVISION MOVIE:
Winner: The Normal Heart
OUTSTANDING WRITING IN A VARIETY SERIES
Winner: Sarah Silverman
OUTSTANDING DIRECTING IN A VARIETY SERIES:
Winner: Glenn Weiss — ’67th Annual Tony Awards’
OUTSTANDING VARIETY SERIES:
Winner: The Colbert Report
OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTOR IN A DRAMA SERIES:
Winner: Aaron Paul — ‘Breaking Bad’
ANALYSIS: Not a real shocker here that Aaron Paul won in the final year for ‘Breaking Bad’. This might stand as a precursor to the rest of the awards show as well.
OUTSTANDING DIRECTING IN A DRAMA SERIES
Winner: Cari Joji Fukunaga — ‘True Detective’
OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A DRAMA SERIES:
Winner: Anna Gunn — ‘Breaking Bad’
OUTSTANDING WRITER FOR A DRAMA SERIES:
Winner: Moira Walley-Beckett — ‘Breaking Bad’
OUTSTANDING LEAD ACTRESS IN A DRAMA SERIES:
Winner: Julianna Margulies — ‘The Good Wife’
OUTSTANDING LEAD ACTOR IN A DRAMA SERIES:
Winner: Bryan Cranston — ‘Breaking Bad’
ANALYSIS: It’s clear now that ‘Breaking Bad’ was always going to be the run away winner at the 2014 Emmy Awards. The series was a standout performer for five seasons and is held up as one of the best shows of all time. That said it’s still a shocker that Matthew McConaughey didn’t win this year. As great as Bryan Cranston was as Walter White, McConaughey was beyond stellar in his portrayal of Detective Rustin Cohle on ‘True Detective’. A real shocker he didn’t win.
OUTSTANDING COMEDY SERIES:
Winner: Modern Family
OUTSTANDING DRAMA SERIES:
Winner: Breaking Bad
