Game Of Thrones, grote winnaar van de Emmy’s

Afgelopen nacht werden – een week nà na de Creative Arts Emmy’s – de ‘belangrijkste’ Emmy’s uitgereikt. Game Of Thrones dat de lijst aanvoerde met 22 nominaties, werd de grote winnaar met een totaal van 9 Emmy’s. Saturday Night Live en The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel volgden met 8 stuks terwijl The Assassination Of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story goed was voor 7 Emmy’s.
Netflix en HBO behaalden ieder 23 awards, gevolgd door NBC (16) en FX Networks (12)

Tot de opvallende winnaars behoren The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel dat de categorie ‘comedy’ domineerde met acht Emmy’s en daarmee Atlanta netjes onder de mat schoof en The Assassination Of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story dat excelleerde in de categorie ‘limited series’. Verrassend was de erkenning van de comedyserie Barry dat een Emmy won met hoofdrolspeler Bill Hader én veteraan Henry Winkler, 45 jaar nadat hij debuteerde als 'The Fonz' in Happy Days. Typisch was ook dat The Americans in zijn laatste seizoen eindelijk onderscheiden werd. De serie die voor velen al die jaren miskend werd, kreeg een Emmy voor ‘beste acteur drama’ en ‘beste scenario drama’. The Handmaid’s Tale ontgoochelde. Buiten drie Creative Arts Emmy’s won de serie geen enkele van de ‘belangrijke’ Emmy’s. Elisabeth Moss, nochtans gedoodverfde favoriete in de categorie ‘beste actrice drama’, moest de duimen leggen voor Claire Foy die bekroond werd voor haar rol in The Crown. Ook verrassend was de Emmy voor Regina King, een prijs die ze kreeg voor haar vertolking in de Netflix-serie Seven Seconds.
