“Homeland,” Showtime’s drama about an American military officer turned terrorist, won the Emmy award for top dramatic series and three other honors, ending the four-year streak for AMC’s “Mad Men.”

Damian Lewis and Claire Danes, stars of the show on CBS Corp.’s pay-TV network, took home Emmys for their performances in the series, which returns next week. The 64th prime-time Emmy awards were broadcast live last night on Walt Disney Co.’s ABC network from the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. ABC late night personality Jimmy Kimmel hosted the telecast.
