The 2015 Emmy Winners List Is Here!

by Lia Beck

Sunday, Sept. 20 brings us the 2015 Emmy Awards, TV's biggest night. It's a time for actors and actresses to dress up and (maybe) grab some awards, and a chance for fans to, well, continue on as usual couch sitting and wine drinking while staring at the television. Everybody wins! Well, some people still lose, technically. Unfortunately, along with the list of 2015 Emmy winners, comes some people who didn't fare quite so well.

This year's award show brings forward a lot of important questions: Will Jon Hamm finally win for his role on Mad Men? Will Modern Family be dethroned as Best Comedy Series winner? Will Amy Poehler win for her Parks & Recreation role and will she accept in character as Leslie Knope and give the entire audience waffles? One can only hope!

Read on for the complete list of 2015 Emmy winners!
