Jon Hamm Throws Shade at Jennifer Westfeldt in Emmy Acceptance Speech

Jon Hamm, on his eighth and final nomination for Mad Men, finally won.

Clarke, who was nominated in the same category in 2013, explained her absence via Instagram Sunday.

-Impressive record tied by “Game of Thrones“: One, matching “Hill Street Blues” and “The West Wing” as the most-honored drama ever with 26 awards – and still counting for “GOT”. It would have been great to see Elisabeth Moss win for Mad Men, or Tatiana Maslany for Orphan Black, or Henson for Empire for that matter, but Davis winning was stupendous.

-Awards won by African-American actors and actresses at Sunday’s and creative arts awards: Four.

Hamm had been nominated seven times before for his portrayal of Don Draper in the AMC drama and hadn’t won.

The actor, who ditched the stairs and crawled on to the stage to take the award, thanked his friends and cast for supporting him.

“Transparent” captured a best comedy actor award for Jeffrey Tambor and a directing award for creator Jill Soloway, giving both winners a chance to pay tribute to the show’s transgender themes.

-Most tweeted-about stars: Five, including Lady Gaga, Davis, Hamm, Amy Poehler and Tatiana Maslany.

There were parts of it, in short, that felt like an Emmy ceremony that could have happened 10 years ago, despite the entry of new networks like Netflix and Amazon and new shows like John Oliver’s fantastic and genuinely provocative Last Week Tonight. Viola Davis, Jon Hamm and Tracy Morgan captured the hearts.

– Number of representatives from accounting firm Ernst & Young: Three, dubbed tongue-in-cheek by presenter James Corden as “heroes”.

Emilia Clarke was noticeably absent at the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards.

The program, airing from Los Angeles’ Microsoft Theater, was hosted by Andy Samberg.
