Hosted by Jimmy Fallon, the show began with a huge musical number that included Jimmy, the entire cast of Glee, comedian Joel McHale, Jon Hamm from Mad Men and others singing Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run.
As the show pressed on (with some surprises, but mostly the favorites winning), winners took the stage to mumble out acceptance speeches.
Edie Falco won for lead actress in a comedy role for Nurse Jackie, an award she was most surprised at. "Oh, this is the most ridiculous thing that has ever, ever happened in the history of this lovely awards show. I'm not funny!" she said.

In his acceptance speech, Bryan Cranston reiterated this humility regarding his win for best actor in a drama series for Breaking Bad (a personal favorite).
"During the time it took me to walk up here, I venture there were 200 text messages to the other nominees saying, 'You were robbed.' I cannot argue with that," he said.
Amazingly, Jon Stewart's Daily Show won its eighth consecutive award for best variety, music or comedy series. It beat out underdog Conan O'Brien, who would have been amazing to see accepting an award for his short-lived stay at the Tonight Show.
