At the 2014 Primetime Creative Arts Emmys — a precursor to the main event that mainly focuses on the technical, behind-the-scenes work of television production — the comedy drama set behind the bars of a women’s prison took home three big awards. Uzo Aduba, who plays Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren, claimed the award for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series on Saturday, while the show’s casting director, Jennifer Euston, won for Outstanding Casting for a Comedy Series. “I don’t know how to say how incredibly impressed I am to be a part of this show day in, day out,” Aduba said while accepting her award, [according to _The Hollywood Reporter_](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/emmys-orange-is-new-blacks-725926 "undefined"). The show also won an [editing award](http://www.emmys.com/awards/nominees-winners/2014/picture-editing-single-camera-comedy "undefined"). Among the other winners were HBO’s _Game of Thrones_, which took home 4 awards, and _Saturday Night Live_, which won 5. Aduba’s co-stars Laverne Cox — the first openly transgender woman to be nominated for an Emmy — and Natasha Lyonne were also nominated [for the same guest-star category](http://time.com/2972865/orange-is-the-new-black-emmys-guests/ "undefined"). The show is up for several more awards, including Outstanding Comedy Series, during the main awards due to take place on Aug. 25. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3130967/orange-is-the-new-black-emmys/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3130967/orange-is-the-new-black-emmys/"},"headline":"Orange Is the New Black Locks Up 3 Creative Arts Emmy Awards","datePublished":"2014-08-17T15:02:18.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T09:42:36.602Z","description":"Uzo Aduba won for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series","url":"https://time.com/3130967/orange-is-the-new-black-emmys/","keywords":["Television","Netflix","Orange Is the New Black","emmys","emmy awards"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt67f40608a1268d8b/69869fd7adae440221544911/ap517652869594.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Nolan Feeney","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/nolan-feeney/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt67f40608a1268d8b/69869fd7adae440221544911/ap517652869594.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Uzo Aduba","caption":"Uzo Aduba","creditText":"Phil McCarten—Invision/AP","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3130967/orange-is-the-new-black-emmys/","name":"Orange Is the New Black Locks Up 3 Creative Arts Emmy Awards"}}]}] ```
