The 66^th Primetime Emmys were a final goodbye for the millions of viewers who had religiously followed the trials and tribulations of Walter White. AMC's Breaking Bad was almost able to complete a clean sweep, taking home five awards--three for acting and two for the overall drama category. Modern Family dominated the comedy genre winning their fifth straight best comedy series award, including Ty Burrell for best supporting actor in a comedic series.

As usual, the Television Academy decided to completely ignore the up and coming powerhouse known as Netflix. While its no secret that Netflix has a far higher budget than regular televised series, the truth of the matter is that the quality is there. Shows like "House of Cards" and "Orange is the New Black" exhibit the future of television, which features a completely new way of doing business.

Netflix tags along with HBO and Showtime in the way that the programming follows a subscription model rather than profiting off of advertising. Many viewers have noticed that after watching television series on HBO or Netflix without commercials, it is extremely hard to go back to traditional television.

The best actor in drama series was a crowded affair, with the favorite being Bryan Cranston. Cranston was judged more on his body of work with "Breaking Bad," rather than the final season. Stars like Matthew McCaughey, Woody Harrelson, John Hamm and Kevin Spacey put up astounding acting performances as well.

The best actress in a comedy series easily went to Julia Louis-Dreyfus who is simply brilliant in her HBO show, "Veep." Although it is a comedic portrayal, "Veep" is slowly getting America ready to have its first woman president.

Where would an awards show be without a little bit of controversy? Sophia Vergara was placed on a rotating pedestal while Bruce Rosenblum, president of The Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, delivered a speech. While all viewers got the joke, some thought it was funnier than others. Vergara seemed to be a representation of the female gender being objectified by a room full of men.

Vergara quickly dispelled all rumors about the stunt being sexist. "I think it's absolutely the opposite," she told People Magazine. "It means someone can be hot and also be funny and make fun of herself and enjoy and work and make money, so I absolutely think it's ridiculous."

Luckily for Vergara, she is an extremely funny actress who naturally has talent as well as looks. In "Modern Family," Vergara is quick witted and can easily rattle off a punch line. If the stunt had been done using a less talented actress, it might have come off worse.
