List of awards and nominations received by Game of Thrones

Game of Thrones is an American fantasy drama television series created for HBO by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. It is an adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire, George R. R. Martin's series of fantasy novels.[1][2] The story, set on the fictional continents of Westeros and Essos, has several plot lines and a large ensemble cast. The first story arc follows a dynastic conflict among competing claimants for succession to the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms, with other noble families fighting for independence from the throne. The second covers attempts to reclaim the throne by the exiled last scion of the realm's deposed ruling dynasty; the third chronicles the threat of the impending winter and the legendary creatures and fierce peoples of the North.[3]

Emmy Awards

D. B. Weiss and David Benioff received the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series for "Mother's Mercy" in 2015 and for "Battle of the Bastards" in 2016.

The Emmy Awards were established in 1949 in order to recognize excellence in the American television industry, and are bestowed by members of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. Emmy Awards are given in different ceremonies presented annually; Primetime Emmy Awards recognize outstanding work in American primetime television programming, while the Creative Arts Emmy Awards are presented to honor technical and creative achievements, and include categories recognizing work of art directors, lighting and costume designers, cinematographers, casting directors, and other production-based personnel.[167] The Emmy Award corresponds to the Academy Award (for film), the Tony Award (for theatre), and the Grammy Award (for music).[168]

Game of Thrones has won 59 out of 164 nominations.[5] Among the 12 cast members nominated for acting Emmys, Peter Dinklage holds the distinction of being the only one nominated for all eight seasons, for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series, for playing Tyrion Lannister; Dinklage also holds the distinction of being the only cast member to win an acting Emmy for the series, with wins in 2011, 2015, 2018 and 2019. Showrunners David Benioff and D. B. Weiss have won twice for Writing for a Drama Series. Game of Thrones has eight nominations for Outstanding Drama Series, winning four, in 2015, 2016, 2018 and 2019. Both David Nutter and Miguel Sapochnik have won for Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series. Game of Thrones holds the Emmy Award record for most wins for a scripted television series, ahead of Frasier (which received 37).[169]

At the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards the show's fifth season was nominated for 24 awards. The show ultimately won 12 awards, setting a new record for most Emmy wins by a series in a single year, replacing the previous holder The West Wing's nine wins, and tying that show and Hill Street Blues for the most wins by a drama series throughout its run.[6] At the nominee announcement for the 68th Primetime Emmy Awards, the show's sixth season received the most nominations of any show with 23. The show again won 12 awards, tying the same record for most Emmy wins by a series in a single year.[5]

At the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards the seventh season was nominated for 22 awards, the most of the ceremony, including a first Emmy nomination for Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.[170] At the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards the eighth season was nominated for 32 awards, thus breaking the record for most nominations received by a regular series in a single year. Actors Alfie Allen, Gwendoline Christie, Sophie Turner and Carice van Houten all received their first Emmy Award nomination thanks to this season.[171]
