Game of Thrones Leads 2019 Emmy Nominees Field

Game of Thrones set a new record for most nominations received by a show in a single year (32) when the 71st Emmy Awards nominees were announced today.

Game of Thrones was nominated for Best Drama Series, a category it has won four times before, and cast members Kit Harington, Emilia Clarke, Peter Dinklage, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Alfie Allen, Lena Headey, Maisie Williams, Sophie Turner, Gwendoline Christie and guest star Carice van Houten also landed Emmy nominations.

Other nominees of genre interest include — Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series:
Kumail Nanjiani (The Twilight Zone), Bradley Whitford (The Handmaid’s Tale); Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series: Jessica Lange (American Horror Story: Apocalypse), Cherry Jones (The Handmaid’s Tale); Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series: The Handmaid’s Tale “Holly”; Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series: Maya Rudolph (The Good Place); Outstanding Television Movie: Bandersnatch (Black Mirror).

If you wonder why there are no nominations for Stranger Things, the explanation is that season 3 dropped July 4 — more than a month after the eligibility period closed — it doesn’t qualify for submissions this year.

The 2019 Primetime Emmy Awards will be presented September 22 in a live telecast from Los Angeles.
