Last night's Emmy awards really belonged to one show: Breaking Bad.
While it had been a brilliant year for TV, with shows such as House of Cards and True Detective also up for numerous categories, it was Walter White who really cleaned up with the award for best supporting actor in a drama series going to Aaron Paul (Jesse Pinkman), supporting actress going to Anna Gunn (Skylar White) and the best actor award going to Bryan Cranston, who played Walter White.
During the three-hour ceremony, host Seth Meyer's brought out a variety of presenters including the hilarious Amy Poehler and Andy Samberg. But perhaps one of the funniest moments was when Julia Louis-Dreyfus was kissed by Bryan Cranston.
A poignant break in the ceremony was when Billy Crystal gave a moving tribute to the late Robin Williams, in which he described the Mrs. Doubtfire star as being "the greatest friend you could ever imagine".
While there were no great surprises, we were happy to see that UK export Sherlock won a few gongs too, with Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman and Steven Moffat all winning awards.
