Get Out, Will & Grace, and The Handmaid’s Tale were some of the big winners at Sunday’s Writers Guild Awards.

The screenplay winners, in particular, are often a harbinger for who may win at the Academy Awards, which will air March 4 on ABC. Here are some of the night’s victors at the awards ceremony, held simultaneously in Los Angeles (where Patton Oswalt hosted) and New York.
