The 68th Primetime Emmy Awards hosted by Jimmy Kimmel honored the best in television at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday night.

Ryan Murphy’s FX limited series “The People vs. O.J. Simpson: An American Crime Story” won big for the night with five wins and plenty of nominations for the cast.

Sarah Paulson won for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series for her role as Marcia Clarke. Paulson brought along Clarke to the ceremony and had Clarke’s name engraved on the award.

“The more I learned about the real Marcia Clark, not the two-dimensional cardboard cut-out on the news, but the complicated, whip-smart, giant-hearted mother of two who woke up every day, put both feet on the floor and dedicated herself to righting an unconscionable wrong, the more I had to recognize that I — along with the rest of the world — had been superficial and careless in my judgment and I am glad to be able to stand here today in front of everyone and tell you that I am sorry,” Paulson told the crowd.

Paulson later went on to declare her love for girlfriend Holland Taylor who remained home tweeting her support.

Jeffrey Tambor won Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for his role as Maura Pfefferman in “Transparent.” In his speech, Tambor made a statement that Hollywood needs to include transgender performers in transgender roles.

“Please give transgender talent a chance,” Tambor told the audience. “Give them auditions. Give them their story. Do that. And also, one more thing, I would not be unhappy were I the last cisgender male playing a female transgender on television. We have work to do.”

Laverne Cox later echoed the same sentiment before presenting the award for Outstanding Directing for a Variety Special.

“Give trans talent a shot,” Cox said. “I would not be here today if somebody didn’t give me a chance.”

“Transparent” creator Jill Soloway also received an award for Outstanding Director in a Comedy Series.

‘”It’s a privilege, and creates privilege, when you take people of color, women, trans people, queer people, as the subjects of stories. You change the world, we found out,” Soloway said in her speech. “I’ve always wanted to be part of a movement. This T.V. show allows me to take my dreams about unlikable Jewish people, queer folk, trans folk, and make them heroes. Thank you to the trans community for your lived lives.”
