Nominations for the 70th Emmy Awards were revealed this summer and tonight we find out who will head home winners. This year, the crown for most nominations by a platform goes to Netflix, which dethroned HBO for the title with 112 (!!) to HBO’s 108. The 2018 Primetime Emmy Awards have begun on NBC and sister site Entertainment Tonight Online is live-blogging the show.
So far after, Amazon has nabbed four awards after less than 10 categories. HBO has two (both for Barry) and Netflix has earned three. But the night is young!
Game of Thrones and Westworld have 22 and 21 nominations, respectively, when you include technical award nominations. Peter Dinklage (who plays Tyrion Lannister) makes history with his supporting actor nom, becoming the most-nominated actor ever in the drama performance category with seven noms total. The Handmaid’s Tale follows close behind with 20 nods, after last year’s win for Outstanding Drama — making Hulu the first streaming service to earn an Emmy in that category. In addition, Killing Eve’s Sandra Oh is the first woman of Asian descent to earn an Emmy nomination for lead actress in a drama.
Read on below for the full list of Emmy winners and nominees, and at the bottom are some of the winners announced at the Creative Emmy awards last week.
