‘Game of Thrones’ Wins Best Drama Series at 2018 Emmys

Game of Thrones?is the sort of show can duck out of your Emmys race 12 months, then swoop within the next similar to an ice dragon, burning the many competition to flecks of dust. Following the HBO series was absent from last year’s awards for that later-than-usual?premiere date, it returned for the 2018 Emmys louder than in the past in 2010, taking home the very best prize for Outstanding Drama Series.

The seventh and penultimate season within the HBO show beat out?The Handmaid’s Tale,?The Crown, The Americans, Stranger Things, This Is Us,?and?Westworld. This marks the third time the David Benioff and Dan Weiss series has won the most notable award, following wins in 2015 and 2016. The show?also had the most nominations of all the program this season which has a whopping 22. It only won within a major category tonight, securing Peter Dinklage’s third Supporting Actor Emmy for any series. (Try not to worry, it also won a lot along at the Creative Arts Emmys the other day.)

This is definitely not the end of?GoT‘s reign, with another season on how. Try not to decide to begin to see the show sweep one more time at next year’s ceremony; although final Season 8 has yet so you can get the release date, coming sometime in “the first half”?2019, could possibly chance?we may get another summer premiere, deeming it ineligible for next year’s awards. Whether it is next season or 2020, get prepared for winter?in to the future?(again).
