The 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards turned out a few against the grain winners on Sunday.
Aaron Paul of the AMC drama "Breaking Bad" snagged his first Emmy win for outstanding supporting actor in a drama and Jim Parsons from "The Big Bang Theory" beat such Emmy friendly winners as Tony Shalhoub and Alec Baldwin for best actor in a comedy.
Another shock? "Nurse Jackie" star Edie Falco won another Emmy -- her fourth -- for lead actress in a comedy. "I'm not funny," Falco insisted when she took to the stage. She previously won for "The Sopranos" in the drama category.
Actor Eric Stonestreet, who stars as Cameron Tucker in ABC's "Modern Family," won the first award for best supporting actor in a comedy series. "All I wanted to be was a clown in the circus, growing up," Stonestreet said as he accepted the award.
"Mad Men" received its third Emmy for outstanding drama series.
In another upset, the ABC comedy "Modern Family" won its first Emmy and beating "Glee."
