Going into its final ceremony, "The Sopranos" needed just three major awards to tie the drama series record of 18 major wins set by "Hill Street Blues". It was nominated in ten major categories coming in and ended the night with three wins, including its second win for Outstanding Drama Series. This tied the record and gave both shows identical résumés—18 major wins and 74 major nominations. This win for "The Sopranos" was also the first time any show's Sixth Season had won for the Outstanding Drama award, later achieved by "Game of Thrones" as well, another HBO drama.
