While The Mandalorian won its fair share of Creative Emmys, it was HBO's Watchmen that dominated proceedings during last night's main awards ceremony. 

It ultimately walked away with 11 wins, including "Best Limited Series," best acting wins for stars Regina King and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, and writing award for showrunner Damon Lindelof and Cord Jefferson. Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross also won "Best Music Composition in a Limited Series" for Watchmen's memorable score. 

Additionally, Watchmen ended the night by also winning awards for best casting (Victoria Thomas and Meagan Lewis), best cinematography (Gregory Middleton), and best fantasy/sci-fi costumes (Sharen Davis and Valerie Zielonka). Needless to say, HBO has to be very pleased.

Whether this leads to another season remains to be seen, though you have to believe the cable network would love to recreate this success with more stories set in the world of Watchmen.
