People are very angry at the Emmys for all the spoilers they broadcast

Los Angeles - The 2015 Emmy Awards are being criticised not for the television they celebrated but all the shows it spoiled for fans.

A video montage during the show celebrated shows that ended this year, but the footage gave away the ending to series such as Mad Men, Sons of Anarchy and True Blood.

Criticism began online soon after the video aired and host Andy Samberg quipped after a commercial break, "Welcome back to the Spoiler Awards."

It was just one of many moments during Sunday's ceremony that toyed with viewers. Comedian Jimmy Kimmel cut up and ate the name of the winner of outstanding actor in a comedy series category, joking he could give it to anyone before announcing the winner as Jeffrey Tambor.

And Samberg gave out a functioning password to HBO's streaming service, HBO Now, allowing viewers to catch up on some pay TV that they might not have seen.

That's of course, if they didn't mind having the outcome of those shows spoiled moments later.
