With Game of Thrones out of contention to defend its two-time title as Outstanding Drama Series at tonight's 2017 Emmy Awards, a pack of acclaimed freshmen series were in the running to take the night's coveted top prize. (And AMC's Better Call Saul, which frankly didn't stand a chance.)

Although Netflix's The Crown took home the Golden Globe for Best Drama Television Series earlier this year, it was Hulu's timely dystopian drama The Handmaid's Tale that grabbed the honor on Sunday. Tale certainly had the momentum going into the 69th Annual Primetime Emmys with 13 nominations (and three early wins). The series also bested HBO's Westworld, which had the honor of being the night's most Emmy-nominated series, as well as fan-favorites This Is Us and Stranger Things — the former having the distinct honor of being the sole broadcast show on the ballot (that hasn't happened in five years).

Over on the comedy side, HBO's Veep took the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series. Going into the night a two-time winner, the show had delivered savage political satire for the past six seasons, but Season 6, which followed Selina Meyer's post-presidential aspirations after a devastating loss in the House, really struck a timely chord. (Donald Glover's buzzy FX comedy Atlanta, the only freshman comedy to be nominated, was its biggest competition.)

Without further ado, here's the full list of winners at this year's Emmys:
