Sunday night saw the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards telecast on NBC. In addition to a previously announced 74 categories on August 21st for programs and individual achievements, Sunday night’s telecast covered the 26 primary Emmy Awards categories. Amongst the winners Sunday night, we had a few basic network winners, cable TV network winners and pay cable TV winners. Meaning like HBO & Showtime.
