Game of Thrones scores 13 Emmy Nominations!

[El Mahdi]

Game of Thrones scored 13 Emmy nominations, including Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Supporting Performance in a Drama Series (Peter Dinklage).

Of course though, they're going up against Mad Men - who've won the Outstanding Drama Series Award for the last three years running...

But anyways, Congratulations Game of Thrones and George R. R. Martin - and go get em' Peter!

Glad to see Dinklage get a nod, but I wish Sean Bean had been, as well.

Dinklage was the only actor to get a nomination? Seriously? That's just several layers of wrong.

Congratulations, Game of Thrones! Awesome!

Dinklage was the only actor to get a nomination? Seriously? That's just several layers of wrong.

Doesn't this always happen with genre stuff? The technical categories seem to have been created for sci-fi/fantasy, but it's kind of a backhanded slap to the actors/writers/directors who almost never get nominated for any of the big awards.

Caveat: I haven't actually seen GoT yet, regrettably waiting for DVDs.

Unfortunately due to the nature of the show, there's really nobody that could have gotten a nod for Outstanding Lead in a Drama Series - as everyone (like Peter) are basically supporting actors.

But yeah, there should have been more in the supporting categories (actors and actresses).

Nice! Glad to see it and can't wait for next season. Hopefully more than 10 episodes...

I hope Dinklage wins. He deserves it.
