HBO's blood-soaked, medieval-fantasy series Game of Thrones was declared Best Drama at the Emmy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles Sunday night.
Rami Malek scored the prize for Best Actor in a Drama for his portrayal of a brilliant, computer hacker with multiple-personality disorder in USA Network's Mr. Robot, while Tatiana Maslany earned the honor for Best Actress in a Drama for playing numerous clones on BBC America's Orphan Black.
No-show Maggie Smith won the award for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama for her work in the PBS soap Downton Abbey and the also absent Ben Mendelsohn garnered the prize for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in Netflix's Florida thriller Bloodline.
Sarah Paulson, Courtney B. Vance, Sterling K. Brown win Emmys for 'People v. O.J. Simpson'
FX's addictive, true-crime saga The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story was named Best Limited Series at Sunday's Emmy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles.
Cast standouts Sarah Paulson, Courtney B. Vance and Sterling K. Brown also were recognized as Best Actress, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or TV Movie for their respective portrayals of Simpson prosecutor Marcia Clark, defense attorney Johnnie Cochran and prosecutor Christopher Darden.
The 10-part series featured Cuba Gooding, Jr. as the titular football hero-turned-double homicide suspect. It co-starred John Travolta, David Schwimmer and Nathan Lane as the Dream Team of high-priced lawyers who helped get Simpson acquitted of the murders of his ex-wife Nicole and her friend Ronald Goldman.
Paulson brought the real Clark with her to the Emmy Awards, which honor excellence on the small screen.
Regina King won the prize for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or TV Movie for her work in the similarly titled drama American Crime.

Who was Sarah Paulson's special date at the 2016 Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday?
The 41-year-old actress won an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie for her portrayal of Marcia Clark in The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story with the real-life former prosecutor by her side.
Paulson and Clark, 63, walked the red carpet together before taking their seats at the ceremony. The actress apologized to Clark during her acceptance speech for her judgments during the O.J. Simpson murder trial.
"The responsibility of playing a real person is an enormous one. You want to get it right not for you but for them," she told the audience. "I, along with the rest of the world, had been superficial in my judgment, and I'm glad that I'm able to stand here in front of everyone today and say, 'I'm sorry.'"
Paulson and Clark visited the winners circle after the speech, where the actress had Clark's name engraved with her own on her Emmy statuette. Clark had nothing but praise for the star when she spoke to Us Weekly backstage.
"To have someone as phenomenal as Sarah play me and then win? It feels pretty great," she admitted.
The People v. O.J. Simpson walked away with four other wins, including Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie for Courtney B. Vance and Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie for Sterling K. Brown.
"Congrats to @MsSarahPaulson for the Emmy! So deserved it! Xoxoxo to her," Clark tweeted early Monday. "Congrats to Sterling, Courtney and DV and Ryan and the entire brilliant cast and crew of Crime Story."
