This year's Emmy Awards had a decent mix of old winners and new winners, but as always there were a few TV shows that seemed to win a little more than the rest. Here are the biggest winners of the night:

"Modern Family"
Not to anyone's surprise, "Modern Family" took home another Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series. This is the show's fourth Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series, and was surprisingly one of a mere two Emmys that was awarded to them this year, the second being an Emmy for Outstanding Directing in a Comedy Series which was awarded to Gail Mancuso.
