'Game of Thrones' earns a record-breaking 32 Emmy nods

The 71st Emmy Awards will air on September 22 on Fox, with the host yet to be announced.

HBO’s Game of Thrones has slashed its way to a record-setting 32 Emmy nominations on Tuesday for its eighth and final season.

The saga’s total eclipsed the all-time series record of 27 nods earned by NYPD Blue in 1994.

The showing by Game of Thrones led HBO back to dominance over Netflix, the streaming service that bumped it last year from its longtime Emmy dominance.

Last year’s best comedy series, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel led the pack with 20 bids, including for its star and defending champion Rachel Brosnahan.

The Masked Singer judge Ken Jeong and The Good Place star D’Arcy Carden announced top-category contenders at the Television Academy in Los Angeles.
