After winning best drama previous year, “Game of Thrones” is up for the honor again on Sunday.
Will you be tuning in live to watch the 2016 Emmy Awards this Sunday?
The epic drama is just a few wins away from setting a new record.
Courtney B. Vance recently sat down with ESSENCE to talk about landing the role of Cochran in the hit show. Game of Thrones began, by the end of its sixth season, to thrillingly move toward an endgame.
Sansa Stark and Jon Snow, played by actors Sophie Turner and Kit Harington, wage the battle for their home during season 6 of HBO’s Game of Thrones.
Paulson also thanked Clark, who she brought to the Emmys, and apologized to her for having a two-dimensional view of the prosecutor before signing on to play her onscreen.
The first season of creator Ryan Murphy’s “American Crime Story” leads all shows with 13 nominations, but the verdict is out as to whether it will triumph over “Fargo” and its eight nods.
A series from the major broadcast networks has not won in the category since Fox’s “24” in 2006.
But TV’s chief currency remains the continuing series, which feeds into Emmy Awards repetition and statistics like these: “Modern Family” and “Frasier” each own five top comedy trophies, with a quartet of awards held by “Mad Men” and three other dramas. One other big question will be debated: Who dominated and who flopped on the red carpet? “I am certainly not opposed to it”, he said.
“People v. O.J. Simpson” also has three nominees in the supporting actor category – David Schwimmer, Sterling K. Brown and John Travolta – three nominees for directing – Ryan Murphy, Anthony Hemingway and John Singleton – and two for writing – D.V. DeVincentis and Joe Robert Cole.

Variety Sketch Series: “Key & Peele”. ABC announced “Countdown to the Emmys: Red Carpet Live”, the official pre-show event leading into television’s biggest night. An Emmy award for “Veep” star Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who portrays vice-president-turned-president, would be her fifth best comedy actress win.
Now, with Trevor Noah taking over the program was overlooked in this year’s balloting (as was “Late Show With Stephen Colbert”), opening the door for another late-night players to claim that mantle. But host Jimmy Kimmel has vowed not to poke fun at their recent split.
This story originally posted as “Game of Thrones Wins Best Drama Series Emmy Second Year in a Row” on TV Guide. The new nominees are Netflix’s Master of None and ABC’s Black-ish.
“This year is a far better showing than last year”, said Jason E. Squire, an associate professor at the University of Southern California’s School of Cinematic Arts.
Should win: Jeffrey Tambor, “Transparent”.
