A few of its actors were up for big awards, including Kevin Spacey for Best Actor in "House of Cards" and Taylor Schilling for Best Actress in "Orange is the New Black."

Instead, many of the wins went to "Breaking Bad," during its final Emmy run, and ABC's long-winning comedy "Modern Family."

During the Emmy's Creative Arts Awards held Aug. 16, Netflix did take home seven awards including one for sound mixing ("House of Cards") and another three for "Orange is the New Black."

Netflix's big winner was actually documentary "The Square" which won four awards.

Last year, Netflix surprised many people by winning three awards, including a Best Directing win for David Fincher on "House of Cards."
