'Downton's' Maggie Smith asks Jimmy Kimmel where her Emmy is

He may not have won an award himself, but the host was sure to continue his famous banter with actor Matt Damon onstage. "Veep" was named best comedy series and its star, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, won a record-breaking fifth Emmy as best comedy actress, reports PTI.

"I'm recommending that we get rid of all Muslim and Mexican people from the ceremony".

"The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story" had the second-highest number of nominations, and converted five of them to wins. Sarah, who played Marcia Clark in the series, paid tribute to the former prosecutor in her acceptance speech.

Susanne Bier, the Danish director of the BBC's spy thriller The Night Manager, won the best directing in a limited series, award.

HBO programs earned best drama and comedy - two of the night's biggest honors - for repeat winners "Thrones" and "Veep", respectively.

Maggie has now won four Emmys and been nominated for nine but hasn't picked up any of the prizes in person.

This year, however, the series lost in the drama acting categories, which were far from predictable. Post-ceremony, critics claimed that Jimmy Kimmel's performance was a way of demonstrating that the traditional way of making television is already a part of the past. "I'd also like to take this opportunity to personally apologise for the current political climate". She showed up at the Oscars to get an Oscar.

"I'd like to dedicate this to my father, William Louis Dreyfus, who passed away on Friday. Hillary in." Writer Aziz Ansari, awarded for his Netflix show "Master of None", joked about deporting Muslims and Hispanics. It was the third time she received the award for her role in the hit period drama.

Jeffrey Tambor (Transparent) repeated last year's win for best actor in a comedy. Bush says. "You know you can make $12 an hour driving for Uber?"

Rami Malek won Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, his first win.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who does not say she is Jewish, but who is the daughter of the Jewish billionaire Gerard Louis-Dreyfus and a relative of Alfred Dreyfus of the Dreyfus Affair, was the victor as actress in a comedy series for her role in "Veep". And all on the stage of the this year's Emmy awards.

Sherlock was named Best Made for TV Movie for its special episode The Abominable Bride. Clinton tweeted later, with a clip of McKinnon impersonating her. Facebook acquired the virtual reality pioneer Oculus VR in 2014.
