It was business as usual in the two major categories at the Emmys on Sunday night, as HBO's Game of Thrones and Veep repeated as winners for best drama and comedy. But for a ceremony that can be numbingly predictable, the Emmys were energised by a slew of first-time winners in the acting categories and a tour de force in the limited series category by FX's The People v. OJ Simpson: American Crime Story. The success of the OJ series set the theme for the evening as Sarah Paulson, Courtney B Vance and Sterling K Brown all scored their first Emmy victories.
