Los Angeles: Television crime saga ‘Breaking Bad’ won its first Emmy award in the drama series while ‘Modern Family’ won its fourth consecutive trophy in the comedy category at the 65th Emmy Awards in Los Angeles. ‘Breaking bad’, which is set to end soon, earned its long due Emmy by besting competition from ‘Mad Men’, ‘Home Land’, ‘House of Cards’, ‘Game of Thrones’ and ‘Downton Abbey’ in a tightly contested category. It was an unbelievable moment for executive producer Vince Gilligan. “I did not see this coming,” Gilligan said. ‘Modern Family’ retained its crown by beating ‘30 Rock’, ‘Girls’, ‘Louie’, ‘The Big Bang Theory’ and ‘Veep’ in the comedy series. The awards took place on Sunday at the LA’s Nokia Theatre.
