How did your favourite show get on?

Although the 2018 Emmy Awards may have been stolen by director Glenn Weiss, last night saw more than just a shock proposal.

The best of all television series were rewarded for their efforts in the past 12 months, as well as the finest actors and actresses on our small screens.

Game of Thrones won an award for Outstanding Drama Series, but didn’t take home all the gold.

Black Mirror picked up two awards for its USS Callister episode, while Donald Glover’s Atlanta was also a winner.

Glover himself took home an individual award for his performance on Saturday Night Live, while the hilarious John Mulaney won outstanding writing for a variety special.
