Find out who won the Globes in the television categories, plus check out the full list of winners after the jump.


Fox's freshman series Glee was applauded as best comedy/musical series. Its creator Ryan Murphy thanked "all the wonderful people who actually thought a musical would work on primetime programming," and he dedicated the award to "anybody and everybody who got a wedgie in high school."

Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner thanked the HFPA for "putting the show on the map" as the AMC show repeated its win last year and once again was named best TV drama.

The first TV award of the night went to Toni Collette, earning her first Globe after three previous nominations for best performance by an actress in a TV series comedy for playing a mom with seriously multiple personalities in The United States of Tara.

Alec Baldwin, who wasn't present, was named best actor in a comedy series, once again, for his work in 30 Rock.

Julianna Margulies, after six previous noms, won her first Globe for her new role as a wronged wife who re-enters the work force in CBS' The Good Wife. In her thank-yous, she made a veiled reference to NBC's woes by thanking CBS execs Les Moonves and Nina Tassler "for believing in the 10 o'clock drama."

Michael C. Hall won his first Globe for playing the serial killer of the title in Showtime's Dexter. "It's a hell of a thing to go to work in a place where everyone gives a damn," he said.

For playing a fellow serial killer in the same series, John Lithgow took home the prize for TV supporting actor. "I've had the most wonderful time creeping out the entire country for the last six months," he said.

Chloe Sevigny introduced a moment of spontaneity when she exclaimed, "I just ripped my dress," as she took the stage to accept the award for supporting TV actress for playing the middle wife in polygamy drama Big Love.

Grey Gardens, HBO's movie about eccentric mother and daughter Big Edie and Little Edie Bouvier Beale, won its upteenth award as it was crowned best miniseries or movie made for TV.
