The first half of the Awards which took place on Saturday night mainly honored achievements in animation, nonfiction/reality programming, and special presentations.

Months after losing the Oscar to O.J: Made in America, Ava DuVernay’s 13th enjoyed a big night indeed by picking up 12 trophies for writing, music and lyrics, motion design, and an Outstanding Documentary.

Other multi-winners included Born This Way and Planet Earth II, while Seth MacFarlane (voice-over performance), RuPaul Charles (reality-show host), Carpool Karaoke (variety special), and Shark Tank (structured reality program) all repeated in their respective categories. Oh, and Meryl Streep won an Emmy for narration!
