On the drama side, Breaking Bad won Drama Series while The Good Wife took both Supporting wins (for Josh Charles and Christine Baranski). Matthew McConaughey won Drama Actor for True Detective and a tie in Drama Actress saw wins for Lizzy Caplan for Masters of Sex and Tatiana Maslany for Orphan Black.
