William H. Macy took the award for best actor in a comedy series for Showtime's Shameless. "I've written so many great acceptance speeches that I never got to give," Macy said. "Not tonight. To my fellow nominees—oh, forget it, you all lost."
Frances McDormand won the best actress in a TV movie or miniseries award for HBO's Olive Kitteredge. McDormand implored the audience to watch Olive. "You can stream it, I don't know how," she said. "You can watch it on an intercontinental flight, I've been told."
