Billy Crystal held court at a table near the dance floor, while "Newsroom" star Jeff Daniels mingled throughout the crowd as a band crooned doo-wop classics.

"Girls" creator Lena Dunham slipped out of the party early clutching her shoes.Other stars partying late into the evening included "The Comeback" star Lisa Kudrow, "Curb Your Enthusiasm" creator Larry David and "The Leftovers" actor Justin Theroux.

As Emmy-winner Stephen Colbert attempted to wade through the crowd with his family in tow, the future CBS "Late Show" host was accosted by a familiar face: Larry Wilmore, who is taking over his "Colbert Report" spot on Comedy Central.

"Hey, big winner," said Wilmore. "I didn't know if you could hear me!"
