"The People vs. OJ Simpson: American Crime Story" was called the best mini-series.

Unexpected jokes are the tradition of the famous American awards. During Emmy, as well as Oscar, the famous actors like to make fun of the hosts and guests of the event.

During the ceremony there was a very unusual incident: the director Jill Soloway received the award for comedy series, taking advantage of this opportunity, decided to publicly speak about her political preferences. Soloway, coming on the scene, called the Republican Donald Trump "dangerous beast" and put him on a par with Hitler.

The cherished statuette for Best Actress was given to the actress Tatiana Maslany. The jury was impressed by the work of women in the TV series "Dark Child", in which Maslany plays multiple characters.

The prize for Best Actor went to Rami Malek. The successful young man got it for his role in the series "Mr. Robot."
