IF you missed it, no worries, I watched it for you. I even suffered through the onslaught of TV ads, where after just about every award, we were hit with six minutes, SIX MINUTES, of TV ads.
The ads were ruthless and then the show itself got the lowest TV ratings in six years, so I'm guessing the power of the DVR would have worked great here... unless you wore out your 30-second jump button by using it a billion times to get past the ads. Hey advertisers, this IS NOT the Super Bowl. That's later on!
Any way, below are the list of winners from each category... with some colorful or insightful commentary to follow in some cases:
And for the record, because you may ask, the term television these days includes basic networks, pay cable channels and all streaming content, like for instance,
The Handmaid’s Tale is on Hulu;
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel streams on Amazon &
Big Little Lies airs on HBO.

Gary Oldman, Darkest Hour
(CS: This is awesome. This actor is one of the most versatile actors I've ever seen! He's willing to take on big, small, fictional and non-fictional characters of every type, and he truly puts himself into each and every role. I've never seen him mail it in!)
