The Creative Arts Emmy Awards took place this weekend in Los Angeles, honoring achievements in animation, nonfiction/reality programming, and special presentations, along with behind the scenes personnel and guest actors.

Saturday was a particularly big night for Ava DuVernay’s 13th, which — months after losing the Oscar to O.J.: Made in America — picked up trophies for writing, music and lyrics, motion design, and (the big one) Outstanding Documentary. But there was plenty of room for celebrating around it. Other multi-winners included Born This Way and Planet Earth II, while Seth MacFarlane (voice-over performance), RuPaul Charles (reality-show host), Carpool Karaoke (variety special), and Shark Tank (structured reality program) all repeated in their respective categories. Oh, and Meryl Streep won an Emmy for narration! An eclectic group, to say the least.

Sunday night’s awards brought victories for SNL, with Melissa McCarthy and Dave Chappelle both taking home awards for their hosting roles on SNL (guest actress/actor in a comedy series), while Alexis Bledel was awarded “Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series,†for her guest spot in The Handmaid’s Tale.

The official Primetime Emmy Awards, meanwhile, will be broadcast live next Sunday, September 17, on CBS. Check out the full list of Creative Arts winners below.
