Damien Chazelle won Best Director for his uplifting original musical “La La Land.”
On the TV side, “Game of Thrones” took Best Drama Series.
American Crime Story swept up as expected taking Best Limited Series and acting prizes for Sarah Paulson, Sterling K. Brown and Courtney B. Vance.
Best Comedy Series went to HBO’s “Silicon Valley.”
FX’s bet on a starring vehicle Donald Glover has more than paid off, as the future Lando Calrissian won Best Actor Comedy Series for “Atlanta.”
Best Actress in a Comedy Series went to Kate McKinnon, a must-see on “Saturday Night Live” this year thanks to her portrayal of presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.
A&E’s live show from the blue carpet saw three pre-ceremony prizes handed out to “Hacksaw Ridge” for Best Action Movie and to “Shark Tank” for Best Structured Reality Series.
The Critics’ Choice Awards are voted by members of the Broadcast Film Critics Association and the Broadcast Television Journalists Associations, two partner organizations made up of critics and writers for television, radio and internet outlets.

Over the past several years, the Critics’ Choice Awards have undertaken a variety of moves in an attempt to simultaneously be more influential within the industry and to increase viewership.
The movie categories were changed to more closely mirror Oscar categories, but then some below-the-line categories were eliminated and comedy and action-movie categories added.
The Critics’ Choice Movie Awards and Critics’ Choice Television Awards were combined into one larger show, in the same way that the Golden Globes honor both movies and TV.
[...] this year, the timetable was moved up to make Critics’ Choice the first major mainstream show to announce nominations and give out awards.
Earlier this year, a Critics’ Choice deal that made Entertainment Weekly an exclusive promotional partner drew criticism from members who represented other outlets, and led to a small number of resignations.
Over the years, 13 of the 21 Critics’ Choice Best Picture winners have gone on to win the Oscar.
Last year, of the 19 categories that overlap between Critics’ Choice and the Oscars, the same film won in 15, including Best Picture winner “Spotlight” and three of the four acting winners.
