HBO's 'Behind The Candelabra' Dominated The Creative Arts Emmy Awards
Sunday night's Creative Arts Emmy Awards honored the key technical disciplines and behind-the-scenes crafts essential to television production.
With eight Emmy awards, Steven Soderbergh's "Behind the Candelabra" - the HBO movie about the relationship between Liberace (Michael Douglas) and Scott Thorson (Matt Damon) - was the biggest winner of the night.
Other highlights included: The first award of the night went to Netflix's "House of Cards" for casting, Bob Newhart winning his first Emmy in his 50-year-long TV career, Lily Tomlin winning her first Emmy in 32 years for her narration on the HBO movie "An Apology to Elephants," Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn winning the reality-host award for "Project Runway," and "Undercover Boss" being named Outstanding Reality Program for the second year in a row.
The awards were handed out at the Nokia Theatre in downtown Los Angeles, and will be aired on FXX on Saturday, Sept. 21, the day before the Primetime Emmys.
