Hollywood threw a big party Saturday night as creative arts Emmy Awards were handed out. HBO's Game of Thrones took home the most prizes, six trophies.

Among the winners: Martha Plimpton, who plays a grandmother on Fox comedy series Raising Hope, but also has had a recurring guest role on the CBS drama The Good Wife, which earned her an Emmy on Saturday. On the legal series, Plimpton plays high-powered attorney and mom Patti Nyholm, who can game the legal system as well as the regular cast of characters.
Jeremy Davies won for his guest appearance on FX drama Justified.
Comedy series guest star winners were Kathy Bates for CBS' Two and a Half Men and Jimmy Fallon as host of NBC's Saturday Night Live.
