Primetime Emmy Awards 2014: #Sherlock Is The Night’s Big Winner

The 66th Primetime Emmy Awards was held at NOKIA Theatre L.A. LIVE in Los Angeles on 25th August and late night host Seth Meyers kicked off the award with a hilarious opening monologue, poking fun at the crowd’s favourite TV series that were nominated for the award show.

Comedian Andy Samberg then showed up on stage, pretending to be a co-host of Meyers to discuss the iconic TV show theme songs. The comedian then transformed himself into villainous “Game of Thrones” character, Joffrey, during Weird Al Yankovic’s performance. The singer took to the stage to perform a medley of revamped TV show theme songs with his own lyrics.

As the script of “Game of Thrones” is in development, the duo poked fun at the author George R.R Martin by offering him a typewriter before Andy faked his own death as the fallen evil King Joffrey:

While Lena Headey (who plays Cersei Lannister in #GoT) was presenting an award on the show, Andy Samberg showed up as the poisoned Joffrey again and continued the gag by yelling, “Mother, mother, I think I drank poison! Mother, why don’t you love me like you love Uncle Jaime?” 

As for the “In Memoriam” segment, American singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles was invited on stage to perform “Smile” and honour well-known entertainment figures including Paul Walker, Casey Kasem, Lauren Bacall, Don Pardo, Sid Caesar, Ann B. Davis, Philip Seymour Hoffman, James Garner, and many more. The segment then featured a tribute to honour late actor Robin Williams with comedian Billy Crystal delivering a touching tribute to his longtime friend.

“He made us laugh, big time. I spent many happy hours with Robin on stage,” Crystal said. Crystal’s speech was then followed by a short video montage of some of Williams’ best moments on late night television:

Meanwhile, PBS’s detective series “Sherlock” emerged as the big winner of the 66th Primetime Emmy Awards as they collected a whopping total of 7 trophies, including Martin Freeman for “Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Miniseries”, Steven Moffat for “Outstanding Writing for a Mini”, and Benedict Cumberbatch for “Outstanding Lead Actor in a Mini”.
