LOS ANGELES – Cult ad agency drama “Mad Men” won the best drama Emmy for the fourth year Sunday, at the US television industry’s annual awards show.

The AMC series, about a 1960s New York advertising agency, took the prize even though the show is not back on screens until next March, after a painfully long 17-month break.

“Mad Men” had also been up against new HBO series “Game of Thrones,” CBS drama “The Good Wife, “Friday Night Lights” and “Dexter” as well as “Boardwalk Empire” for the coveted drama Emmy.
