The 2015 TCA Awards were handed out last night and Amy Schumer came out the big winner. A breakthrough year for her with a hit show and a hit summer movie (Trainwreck), Schumer grabbed the two big comedy awards, Outstanding Achievement in Comedy (Comedy Central’s Inside Amy Schumer) and Individual Achievement in Comedy. She bested favorite Transparent (Amazon) in both categories and shockingly, that show went home empty-handed despite going into the night with a four nominations.
