And, in a category “Dexter” wasn’t even nominated in, the top drama-writing honor. I didn’t watch “Dexter” last season; did the academy make at least two colossal blunders by giving statues to “Mad Men” that rightfully belonged to “Dexter”? The two shows air back to back; what better night to compare? 10 p.m. Sunday. AMC.
