Sopranos packs farewell punch at Emmys
The groundbreaking series, which ended in June after an eight-year run, took home the awards for outstanding drama and best writing and directing, but unexpectedly failed to score any prizes in the acting categories.
In the comedy awards, NBC’s 30 Rock, set in the offices of a New York television studio, picked up the top prize, while acting awards were shared by Ricky Gervais for his series Extras and America Ferrera for Ugly Betty.
