For the 70th time, the Television Academy binged way more TV than all of us and gave away a few awards on Monday night.

The 2018 Emmy Awards began as Kate McKinnon and Keenan Thompson kicked off the evening with a star-studded salute to diversity.

What's TV without a few guest stars?--

The song and sarcasm featured Andy Samberg, Tituss Burgess, and RuPaul. It was the first of many SNL-fueled moments throughout the evening hosted by the shows writers Colin Jost and Michael Che. It was also a song about diversity before an hour-plus of white winners.

The awards began in the comedy category, with the first going to the legendary Henry Winkler. Despite several nominations, this was Winkler's first win. In an emotional moment, The Fonz finally got to give his victory speech.

Winkler won his Outstanding Supporting Actor award for HBO's Barry, which would also earn the Outstanding Lead Actor award for Bill Hader. The other big comedy winner was Amazon's The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. The show scored an Emmy for writing and directing, an Outstanding Supporting Actress Emmy for Alex Borstein and an Outstanding Lead Actress Emmy for Rachel Brosnahan.

Betty White delivered the most unexpected cameo, and one of the sweetest moment of the evening. The actress was welcomed to the stage between awards for a brief thank you and a few stories about her legacy in TV. As the Emmys celebrate 70 years, it seemed more important to honor the 96-year-old legend.

As sweet as it was seeing Betty White, it nearly as amazing to see Glenn Weiss. What's a Glenn Weiss you say? He's the guy that won an Emmy for Directing of a Variety Special and turned his acceptance speech into a wedding proposal. Before he could even get the words out, the crowd had popped the question for him.

SHE SAID YES!-- Watch the evening's most heartwarming moment. #Emmys pic.twitter.com/1ByFtnSpig

John Mulaney, Darren Criss, and Regina King all took home Emmys before the show got to the dragons, and robots, and drama.

The acting Emmys were somewhat surprising for drama. Thandie Newton took home the Outstanding Supporting Actress Emmy for HBO's Westworld, and Peter Dinklage scored his third Emmy as Tyrion Lannister on HBO's Game Of Thrones.

More surprising maybe is Matthew Rhys win for his role in The Americans. The show ended after six seasons in May.

WINNER! Matthew Rhys — Lead Actor, Drama | #Emmys | https://t.co/jLOE67P15q pic.twitter.com/5Oz4dWnxFd

RuPaul's Drag Race, Saturday Night Live, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, and The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story all won in thier respective categories before the night's final two big awards. In the end it was The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel who took home home Outstanding Comedy Series, and Game Of Thrones who landed the prize for Outstanding Drama Series.

It was an uneven evening for the Emmys, but the end of another chapter of amazing TV all the same. You can find the full list of winners below, right underneath this pretty fitting collection of dad jokes. That feels about right.
