The 5th Annual Critics’ Choice Awards show — and host Cat Deeley — are through on A&E, where HBO’s “Silicon Valley” and FX’s “The Americans” were presented with Sunday’s top awards.
Two hours before those final ones were handed out, the first trophy of the night went to “Better Call Saul’s” Jonathan Banks, the now-reigning Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series. His female counterpart was Lorraine Toussaint, who won for “Orange Is the New Black.”
Other big winners were leads Taraji P. Henson (“Empire”), Bob Odenkirk (“Better Call Saul”), Jeffrey Tambor (“Transparent”) and Amy Schumer (“Inside Amy Schumer”). “Olive Kitteridge” won for Best Limited Series; the HBO offering finished with three awards, good enough for the most of the evening. HBO itself also topped its competitors, pulling in seven victories total.
One award that we definitely knew who the winner would be was the Louis XIII Genius Award, which was handed to “Family Guy” creator Seth Macfarlane from his “A Million Ways to Die in the West” co-star Charlize Theron.
