Love, Death & Robots won five awards, but four were known prior to the ceremony (same for Age of Sails' three awards). And The Simpsons won. The '90s are back, baby!
RuPaul's Drag Race still had a good showing, but its award energy was down. Saturday Night Live wasn't as strong but still got a lot of love for the John Mulaney-hosted episode.
The Television Academy didn't go in on neither Netflix's Our Planet nor its Beyonce concert special. Last year was considered Parts Unknown's final farewell and it racked up all sorts of awards. This year, its actual last appearance, it won a couple big ones, but received no attention elsewhere. The Academy has never been sentimental... so that might speak to Veep's chances next Sunday.
Enough babbling, here are tonight's winners!

PROGRAM
