Popular audience favorite 'Glee' left in the cold

The 62nd annual Emmy award winners went mad for "Mad Men," the critically acclaimed series on Madison Avenue executives in the Sixties. Popular audience favorite "Glee " only won a handful of awards after more than a dozen nominations, and the final season of "Lost" did just that, without winning a single award.

The period drama 'Mad Men,' about ad executives in the 1960s swept the 62nd Annual Emmy awards.
