There ain’t no season like awards season folks, and adding to the already blessed month of February (The Oscars are next week, you guys) the East and West Writers Guild of America have presented their awards at ceremonies in Los Angeles and New York today.
Hosted by Lisa Kudrow, the awards saw The Grand Budapest Hotel take out the coveted gong—best original screenplay—while True Detective dominated in the TV category while winning best drama series and best new series. Your boy John Oliver wasn’t forgotten either, as Last Week Tonight picked up best Comedy/Variety series.
Wes Anderson was dressed as twee as one physically can be—without, of course, literally wearing a tweed suit—while sporting all burnt orange corduroy errythang. Proud of you and your choices, buddy. Watch him receive his award below. A full list of winners can be found after the jump.
