KEEP us bookmarked through the day for rolling coverage of the winners, losers and best gags from today's Emmy Awards ...

Approximately 27 hours later, the Emmys are done for another year. Awards-wise, it felt like an exceptionally safe year: Breaking Bad was given a fitting swan song, taking out several major awards in honour of its final season. Modern Family proved it really is an unstoppable force in the Best Comedy category, landing a fifth win in a row.

Emmys Red Carpet: Best and worst dressed

The biggest upset? For our money, it's Orange Is The New Black going home empty-handed. With wins at the Creative Arts Emmys in the lead-up to today's ceremony, we thought all signs pointed to the wonderful inmates at Litchfield Prison going home with at least one award.

Comedian Billy Crystal's tribute to friend Robin Williams was heartfelt and pitch-perfect - let that be a lesson to you, MTV VMAs.

Billy Crystal gives this emotional tribute to his friend, Robin Williams, 'the brightest star in the comedy galaxy for almost 40 years'. 2014 Emmy Awards/ Fox 8.

It was left to the presenters and winners to provide the most unexpected moments of the night — Ricky Gervais' faux-bitter presentation after losing out on the Best Actor Emmy was a delight, as was Billy Eichner's pre-taped street interview which taught us one thing: people in New York could care less about the Emmys.

Winner of the Best Writing — Variety award, Sarah Silverman appears to have been stoned during the ceremony. That's certainly one way to make it to the end of the show.

And let's not forget the moment Julia Louis Dreyfus stopped on the way up to collect her Best Comedy Actress award to gun for another gong: World's Longest Pash with Bryan Cranston.

Halle Berry's on stage to present the final award of the night ...

It sure is: acting gongs for Bryan Cranston, Aaron Paul and Anna Gunn, a writing award and now the biggest award of the night, outstanding drama.

12:50

Jay Leno's up to present the award for best comedy. "It's hard to believe we're nearly a tenth of the way through the ceremony," he says. DON'T JOKE, JAY.

Outstanding comedy

"The Big Bang Theory"

"Louie"

"Modern Family"

"Orange is the New Black"

"Silicon Valley"

"Veep"

That makes it five years in a row for Modern Family. Orange is the New Black woz robbed. ROBBED WE TELLS YA. Head of the Modern Family team starts getting played off before he's even landed his first joke. One more to go, gang ...

12:44

"Please welcome a woman who starred in Mystic Pizza 25 years ago, and was never heard from again — Julia Roberts!" - Uh, hasn't Seth Meyers already done a variation of this joke about three times tonight? Julia's here to present a big one:

Outstanding actor in a drama

Jeff Daniels, "The Newsroom"

Jon Hamm, "Mad Men"

Bryan Cranston, "Breaking Bad"

Woody Harrelson, "True Detective"

Matthew McConaughey, "True Detective"

Kevin Spacey, "House of Cards"

It could only be Bryan, recognised for the final season of Breaking Bad. Top marks to Julia Roberts for making it All About Her when presenting the award — "Apologies to anyone who doesn't get to hug me in the next 10 seconds," she said, before reading out the winner.

"I don't know why I've been blessed with an abundance of good fortune," Cranston says. "I love acting and I will do it until my last breath. I have so much gratitude." Beautifully humble speech, with a couple of laughs too: he thanks his on-screen wife Anna Gunn for all their great scenes together, "especially the ones in bed."

12:39

Viola Davis presents an outstanding array of women:

Outstanding actress in a drama

Lizzy Caplan, "Masters of Sex"

Claire Danes, "Homeland"

Michelle Dockery, "Downton Abbey"

Julianna Margulies, "The Good Wife"

Kerry Washington, "Scandal"

Robin Wright, "House of Cards"

The favourite gets it. Good for Julianna, but this has been a very safe Emmys so far, hasn't it? No big upsets. "What a wonderful time for women on television," Julianna says during her speech. AMEN.

12:35

Outstanding writing in a drama

"Breaking Bad"

"Breaking Bad"

"Game of Thrones"

"House of Cards"

"True Detective"

Moira Walley-Beckett takes it out for her writing work on Breaking Bad. "To my brilliant cast of actors: writing for you was pure joy." The 'play her off' music starts about 15 seconds into her speech. Know what that means — WE'RE RUNNING OVER, PEOPLE!

Maggie Smith, "Downton Abbey"

Joanne Froggatt, "Downton Abbey"

Anna Gunn, "Breaking Bad"

Christine Hendricks, "Mad Men"

Anna gets it. Another win for Breaking Bad! She describes the show as "the most extraordinary journey, over the past seven years."

12:24

Next award presented by Debra Messing and Jim Parsons, or, as Seth Meyers calls them: "A couple of Messing Parsons." *cool guy shades*

Outstanding direction in a drama

"Boardwalk Empire"

"Breaking Bad"

"True Detective"

"Downton Abbey"

"Game of Thrones"

"House of Cards"

Cary Fukunaga accepts the award for True Detective, keeping his speech brief and rocking sweet hair braids.

12:20

Comedian Billy Crystal gives an emotional speech in honour of his departed friend Robin Williams. "I used to think if I could put a saddle on him and stay on for eight seconds, I'd be doing OK."

Telling stories about Williams' comic genius, he described his energy as akin to a dog that's been kept inside all day that's finally allowed out to run around.

"As genius as he was on stage, he was the greatest friend you could ever have — present, loving. He was the brightest star in our comedy galaxy."

12:15

Singer Sara Bareilles delivers a beautiful rendition of the classic Smile for the In Memoriam segment, paying tribute to the small screen stars who've passed away in the past year- and ending, to huge applause, with an image Robin Williams.

Also, here's a full report on that brilliant Billy Eichner comedy skit from earlier in the broadcast. Check it out.

12:10

Jim Carter, "Downton Abbey"

Peter Dinklage, "Game of Thrones"

Mandy Patinkin, "Homeland"

Aaron Paul, "Breaking Bad"

Jon Voight, "Ray Donovan"

Josh Charles, "The Good Wife"

Aaron takes it out for the final season of Breaking Bad — it's his third Emmy win and fifth nomination. In the lead-up to the awards, he sent BB fans on a Twitter scavenger hunt around LA to find memorabilia related to the show — great guy.

Also, how do you keep the audience's interest while delivering a dry speech about history and activities of the Emmy Academy? Easy — put Modern Family star Sofia Vergara on a revolving platform in a figure-hugging dress.

"Our success is about always giving the viewer something compelling to watch," the Academy head says.

11:55

Outstanding variety series

"The Daily Show"

"Jimmy Kimmel Live"

"Real Time with Bill Maher"

"Saturday Night Live"

"The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon"

"The Colbert Report"

... Which presenter Gwen Stefani mispronounces as "The Colborrrr Roporrr," which is a bit awkward. Gwen, you had one job. Perhaps she's still nursing a post-VMAs hangover?

Before that, Directing — Variety Special goes to Glenn Weiss for the 2014 Tony Awards. He accepts from the control room, where he's at the helm for the Emmys. How's that for multi-tasking?

11:45

Ricky Gervais is up to present an award, but not before doing a bit about losing the Best Comedy Actor award to Jim Parsons. He reads the speech he would've read had he won, thanking the other nominees, including "Joey from Friends." He points out that he travelled the farthest to be here, so really, shouldn't he have won it?

He gives the award for Writing — Variety Special to Sarah Silverman. Two risque comedians on stage one after the other — we bet they've got their fingers on the 'censor' button in the control room right now.

"We're all just made of molecules and we're hurling through space right now," Silverman says during her speech. SMART LADY.

11:42

"Please welcome the only person from ER ever to amount to anything, Julianna Margulies! We're sure George Clooney finds that joke hilarious — we're also sure that Noah Wyle is at home somewhere crying into his Ben & Jerrys.

"Treme"

11:15

Amy Poehler's back! She and Seth work through a few possible introductions to True Detective stars Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. "One is named after a disciple of Jesus, the other is named after a boner!" "Please welcome the only actors in Hollywood not rumoured to be starring in season two of True Detective!"

11:08

Andre Braugher asks if he can go to the bathroom. The Portlandia duo Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein start a chant to get the Emmys happening annually: "EVERY YEAR! EVERY YEAR!" Wouldn't that be nice?

Modern Family takes it out, with director Gail Mancuso directing her speech directly to Matthew McConaughey, because she can't look at her cast or crew or else she'll cry.

10:20

Jimmy Kimmel presents the award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series, but not before questioning why bona fide move star Matthew McConaughey is here tonight, muscling in on TV star territory.

Here are the best pearlers from host Seth Meyers' opening monologue:

Pointing out the diversity of the Best Drama nominees tonight, he said that at the 1976 Emmys, the four Best Drama nominees were all police shows. "Basically you voted for the cop whose hat you liked the most.

"We had comedies that made you laugh, and comedies that made you cry, because they were dramas submitted as comedies," he said, referencing Orange is the New Black's contentious inclusion in the Comedy category.

"I would like to congratulate the writers in the room tonight, but their seats are too far away for them to hear me."

When he asked last year's hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler for help writing his monologue tonight, "they both jumped at the chance to text back, 'New phone. Who dis?'"

His advice to shows experiencing critical and commercial success: kill off all the characters, or else "before you know it, you're paying Sheldon a million dollars an episode."

HBO has 99 nominations tonight: "Not to be outdone, NBC is also a network."

9:35

Former Saturday Night Live cast member Seth Meyers is hosting today's ceremony, and he already promised E! 's Giuliana Rancic in a red carpet interview that he wouldn't be going hard on any of the attendees during his opening monologue. Is he telling the truth, or should some of TV's finest prepare for a roasting?

All the pictures: Emmys red carpet gallery

As for winners today, there are few sure bets, but our predictions: Bryan Cranston seems a cert for Best Actor in a Drama Series, given his sterling work in the acclaimed final season of Breaking Bad.
