Winners List of SAG Awards 2012

The 18th Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards, often have a curious way of letting us know what the Oscars are going to deliver. So when the Screen Actors Guild doled out its golden statuettes on Sunday night, January 29, we couldn't help but feel there were more than a few hints at how the Academy Awards might shake out in a few weeks.

"The Help" wins big at SAG Awards, for Best Ensemble capped off a rather predictable night at the SAG Awards. The adaptation of the best-selling novel picked up individual awards for both Octavia Spencer, who won Best Supporting Actress, and Viola Davis, who won Best Actress.

Things were more predictable on the TV side of things. In 2012, for the second year in a row, "Modern Family" (Outstanding Cast in a Comedy) and "Boardwalk Empire" (Outstanding Cast in a Drama and a Lead Actor win for Steve Buscemi) had strong showings.
