Michael J. Fox won his first Emmy on the drama side for a recurring role on "Rescue Me" as the wheelchair-bound boyfriend of Denis Leary's ex. Fox had contended in this guest actor category in 2006 for a guest spot on "Boston Legal" (he lost to Christian Clemenson on that same show). Fox's four other Emmy wins came for comedy - three consecutive lead actor awards for "Family Ties" (1986-1988) and another for his final season on "Spin City" in 2000.
