Emmy Nominations: Game Of Thrones, Mrs. Maisel And Chernobyl Lead Pack; HBO Reclaims Dominance Over Netflix
Nominations for the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards were announced on Tuesday morning, and HBO's Game of Thrones ended its run with a bang, amassing 32 total nods. Amazon's The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel drew the second-most noms, with 20, followed by HBO's Chernobyl (19), NBC's Saturday Night Live (18) and HBO's Barry and FX's Fosse/Verdon (which each netted 17).
By platform, HBO — which last year trailed Netflix 108-112 — returned to the top spot by amassing 137 total nods to the streaming giant's 117. NBC placed a distant third with 58.
This year's ceremony will be held Sunday, Sept. 22 at the Microsoft Theater in Downtown Los Angeles, and aired live on Fox. A host has not yet been named.
TVLine has listed the nominees below. Your job, as extremely opinionated inhalers of TV, is to storm the Comments section with gushes of glee or eruptions of righteous indignation.
