Another year, another pair of top Emmy wins for "Mad Men" and "30 Rock."

The two shows won Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Comedy Series respectively, continuing Hollywood's love affair with the two shows.

In its first two seasons, "Mad Men" has now won eight Emmys, including its second consecutive win in the night's top award. However, the show was left empty handed in other categories that included actors Jon Hamm, John Slattery and Elizabeth Moss. Earlier in the evening, creator Matthew Weiner and writer Kater Gordon won for Outstanding Writing in a Drama Series, a category that was heavily dominated by Weiner and "Mad Men."

"30 Rock" continued its dominance of the Emmys winning its third consecutive Outstanding Comedy Series award, and taking up additional wins for Alec Baldwin for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series. However, other acting nods to Tina Fey, Jane Krakowski, Jack McBrayer, Elaine Stritch, Jennifer Aniston, Steve Martin, Jon Hamm and Alan Alda came up short.

In the first award of the night, "Pushing Daisies" had its fans of the now-cancelled ABC series in tears.

Kristin Chenoweth, who played Olive Snook, almost couldn't believe her name was called during the 61st Emmy Awards that aired on CBS Sunday night. But it had been called, and she is now the latest winner of the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series category at the Emmys.

Fighting back tears, Chenoweth still managed to be funny, using her acceptance speech as a faux resume.

"I'm unemployed now, so I'd like to be on 'Mad Men,'" Chenoweth said, according to CNN. "I'd also like to be on 'The Office' and '24.'"

Chenoweth's win was the fourth and final win for "Pushing Daisies," which won last year by Barry Sonnenfeld for Outstanding Director in a Comedy Series, James Dooley for Outstanding Music Composition for a Series, and Stuart Bass for Outstanding Picture Editing for a Comedy Series. The show had earned nine nominations last year, including a nod to Lee Pace for Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series and Bryan Fuller for Outstanding Writing in a Comedy Series.

Michael Emerson also picked up an Emmy in his third try as Benjamin Linus in "Lost." In fact, it was only the fourth major Emmy "Lost" has ever won, the most recent going to Terry O'Quinn in 2007 in the same category. The show has won a total of nine Emmys throughout its run, including a win in 2005 for Outstanding Drama Series.

Emerson described his part that grew from a guest stint to a recurring character as the "role of a lifetime."

Other major winners included Bryan Cranston from "Breaking Bad" getting his second consecutive win in the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, Glenn Close winning Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her work on "Damages," "The Daily Show" picking up Outstanding Writing and Outstanding series in the variety, music, or comedy category, Toni Collette for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for "United States of Tara," and Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series, Jon Cryer from "Two and a Half Men."

This year's Emmys telecast was hosted by Neil Patrick Harris from Joss Whedon's Emmy-winning "Doctor Horrible's Singalong Blog," and the broadcast actually featured a comedy bit that included Harris as his popular online character, Nathan Fillion and Felicia Day from the broadcast.
