'Boardwalk Empire'
ENSEMBLE IN A DRAMA SERIES


The cast of Boardwalk Empire got their first nomination and win at the show, and Steve Buscemi started off with explaining to the audience that he'd lost his speech. Whoops! He ad-libbed, and thanked all the usual suspects.

A stunning Julianna Margulies accepted the statue for her role in The Good Wife for the second year in a row. This was her 14th nomination over the years! She gave a delightful speech that ended with her thanking her in-laws for creating such a phenomenal man, her husband Keith. Aww!

BEST ACTOR SUPPORTING ROLE



Melissa Leo had to catch her breath before speaking at the podium as she accepted her award for her role in The Fighter. She thanked the girls that played her daughters in the film (she even brought them to the show!) and managed to squeak in a thanks to Mark Wahlberg.

OUTSTANDING MALE ACTOR IN A COMEDY SERIES


30 Rock star Alec Baldwin took home his 5th consecutive award in this category tonight. He got up to the stage, calling the win "ridiculous" and making a zany reference to Amy Poehler. Loves it.

Betty White won her first SAG Award for her role in Hot in Cleveland and got a standing ovation as she made her way to the stage. The 89-year-old said: "I cannot believe this. They had to get the old broad up the stairs, and that's not easy." She then said this is the biggest surprise of her career! Wow.

Christian Bale took home his first award in this category at the show for his role in The Fighter. He accepted the trophy (commenting on its weight), and thanked his fellow actors for the honor. He said sometimes acting is like "playing dress up" and explained how much he loves the art.

OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE BY A CAST IN A MOTION PICTURE

No real surprise here: The King's Speech took the night's top honor, and is slated to do the same at the Academy Awards as well. Time will tell!
