If you watched the Golden Globes, then the Screen Actors Guild Awards might have seemed more than a little familiar on the television side of the ledger.
SAG's top show honors, as well as the individual actor awards, essentially mirrored those handed out by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association on Jan. 17.
AMC's retro advertising series Mad Men, continuing to add to its haul of Emmys and Globes, brought home the SAG actor for the second year running for the outstanding performance by an ensemble in a drama series.
For its part, Fox's rookie Glee repeated its Globe win by capturing the outstanding performance by an ensemble in a comedy series.
Fox also got SAG props for outstanding performance by a stunt ensemble in a television series for serial thriller 24
Julianna Margulies followed her Globe with the actor for outstanding performance by a female actor in a drama series as Alicia Florrick in CBS's The Good Wife.
Beleaguered NBC also had to feel good as Alex Baldwin scored his fourth consecutive SAG win for outstanding performance by a male actor in a comedy series for his portrayal of Jack Donaghy in 30 Rock, while Tina Fey copped her third straight SAG award for outstanding performance by a female actor in a comedy series on the same show.
Fey's turn as Liz Lemon proved to be the only primetime SAG difference from the HFPA equivalents, where Toni Collette, who won the Emmy in September, was the Globe's top comedic actress last week for Showtime's United States of Tara.
Elsewhere, the 16th annual SAG Awards, simulcast live by TNT and TBS, ran the same for cable as it did on the Globes: Kevin Bacon marched to the outstanding performance by a male actor in a television movie or miniseries for his Lt. Colonel Michael Stroble in HBO's Taking Chance; Drew Barrymore won outstanding performance by a female actor in the same category for Little Edie in HBO's Grey Gardens; and Michael C. Hall earned Showtime and himself the outstanding performance by a male actor in drama series for his serial killer performance in the title role of Dexter.
