Last night we were glued to our TVs to see who will be the winners at the 66th edition of the Emmy Awards. Many of our favorite shows, actresses and actors won but there were a few left out. Well, you know what they say, you can’t have it all. The best thing is that there will be other editions of this great ceremony which is the equivalent of the Academy Awards for Television series.
