After a while it grew monotonous: a steady stream of Golden Globe winners declaring surprise.<\/p>\n

For the people behind Fox\u2019s detective comedy \u201cBrooklyn Nine-Nine,\u201d it was genuine but not so with the victory lap for \u201cBreaking Bad,\u201d and its team didn\u2019t pretend otherwise.<\/p>\n

\u201cBrooklyn Nine-Nine\u201d won the Globe on Sunday for best television comedy, with star Andy Samberg winning best comic actor. \u201cBreaking Bad\u201d won best drama, a coda for AMC\u2019s epic tale of meth kingpin Walter White, with Bryan Cranston winning the award for best dramatic actor.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a terrible actor, so you can be assured I\u2019m very surprised in real life,\u201d said \u201cBrooklyn Nine-Nine\u201d co-creator Dan Gore.<\/p>\n

Samberg\u2019s a better actor, but he seemed stunned to win in a category that included Jim Parsons, star of television\u2019s most popular comedy \u201cThe Big Bang Theory,\u201d and sentimental favourite Michael J. Fox, who has his own NBC show.<\/p>\n

Vince Gilligan, creator of \u201cBreaking Bad,\u201d said the Globe gave the show\u2019s team another chance to thank its fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cEspecially the early adopters, as they say in the electronics business, the folks who were watching since season one, the grim days when we had very little viewership,\u201d Gilligan said of his series, which ended last fall. \u201cThank you for helping us get to here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cranston\u2019s award came after losing four times in the category.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is such a wonderful honour and such a lovely way to say goodbye to the show that has meant so much to me,\u201d Cranston said. He joked that the honour by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association means more people around the world will be able to share in the \u201cmirth and merriment\u201d of \u201cBreaking Bad.\u201d<\/p>\n

The show was denied a sweep when Aaron Paul lost his bid to Jon Voight for a supporting actor award.<\/p>\n

Actress Robin Wright won for her work in \u201cHouse of Cards.\u201d She paid tribute to her co-star, Kevin Spacey, calling him \u201cthe best playdate, ever.\u201d Netflix\u2019s award for the show represented the first time a service other than a broadcast or cable network has won a major television award.<\/p>\n

Movie star Michael Douglas donned the flamboyant costumes to play Liberace for \u201cBehind the Candelabra\u201d and the work brought him his fourth Golden Globe award. Earlier in the evening, the production won the award for best TV movie.<\/p>\n

Douglas called his co-star, Matt Damon, \u201cthe bravest, talented actor I\u2019ve ever worked with.\u201d Addressing Damon, he said \u201cthe only reason you\u2019re not here is I had more sequins.\u201d<\/p>\n

Show co-host Amy Poehler capped her big night by winning the best actress award for NBC\u2019s \u201cParks & Recreation.\u201d For a joke, she was sitting on Bono\u2019s lap when the camera cut to her as nominees\u2019 names were read; she looked as though she didn\u2019t want to rush off when the announcement came that she won.<\/p>\n

But she quickly recovered and turned into what even she recognized as a cliche the flustered award winner who said she had not prepared to be an award winner.<\/p>\n

\u201cWoo,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019ve never won anything like this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elisabeth Moss gets a lot of publicity for her work on \u201cMad Men,\u201d but won a Golden Globe as best actress in a miniseries for playing a detective investigating the disappearance of a pregnant girl in the Sundance Channel miniseries, \u201cTop of the Lake.\u201d<\/p>\n

Like movie winner Jennifer Lawrence before her, Moss was visibly trembling as she accepted her trophy.<\/p>\n

Veteran actress Jacqueline Bisset, a five-time nominee who won her first Golden Globe, savored the moment in getting a best supporting actress trophy. She played Lady Cremone in the BBC production of \u201cDancing on the Edge,\u201d shown on Starz.<\/p>\n

Her acceptance was punctuated by silence, she kept talking when the music tried to usher her offstage and even forced the censor to press the \u201cbleep\u201d button after she uttered a profanity.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going to get this together,\u201d she said. \u201cI want to thank the people who have given me joy, and there have been many. And the people who have given me (profanity), I say it like my mother what did she say? She used to say, \u2018Go to hell, and don\u2019t come back.\u201d\u2018<\/p>\n

There was no profanity from Voight, another Hollywood veteran. He had been to the stage before. His supporting actor honour for his work in Showtime\u2019s \u201cRay Donovan\u201d was his fourth Golden Globe.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m truly humbled to be among my talented peers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
