Lots of underdogs to cheer for last night, but my favorite had to be sweet, quirky Rami Malek who won Lead Actor in a Drama Series- he was so shocked to be up on stage- really endearing.

My Internet boyfriend Tom Hiddleston was up for two Emmys for “The Night Manager,” he lost both, but he did get to give the Emmy  (as a presenter) to his director Susanne Bier, so the night wasn’t a total loss… Oh, wait. You probably wanted to know who won, right? Here’s the main categories, there were a lot of ones for like, lighting and best hamster stunts, but I got tired of writing so here you go…

And finally…the most touching moment from Patton Oswalt’s win for “Best Variety Special.” Every comic there had tears in their eyes, because Patton lost his beloved wife earlier this year- he said “it seems like all the lights are 50% dimmer now that she’s gone.” Oh! My heart…
