Tina Fey's 30 Rock and HBO's John Adams swept their categories at the Screen Actors Guild Awards to continue their hot streaks as actors took a break from their focus on a possible strike to celebrate their best work of the last year.
30 Rock won best female actor for a comedy series for Fey, best male actor in a comedy series for Alec Baldwin, and best ensemble in a comedy series. SAG has been locked in a contract dispute with producers for months, and Fey took a jab at studios as she noted that her daughter would someday be old enough to watch 30 Rock on the Internet.

Best known for outrageous comedy roles like the dad in Malcolm in the Middle, Cranston is a well-liked star who was considered an underdog in a strong field that included fellow AMC leading man Jon Hamm of Mad Men, House's Hugh Laurie (amazingly, still empty-handed), Dexter's brilliant Michael C.
