Am 22. September fanden zum 71. Mal die Emmy Awards statt. Der beliebte Fernsehpreis wird jährlich im Rahmen einer aufwändig-inszenierten Zeremonie an die besten/beliebtesten Schauspieler und TV-Produktionen des US-amerikanischen Prime-Time-Programms verliehen und live auf CBS ausgestrahlt.

Zu den größten Gewinnern des Abends gehörte die britische BBC-Dramedy „Fleabag“, die insgesamt vier Preise erhielt. Eine weitere Amazon-Serie, die diesmal punkten konnte, ist „The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel“, die immerhin drei Awards erhielt. Das Netflix-Kriminal-Drama „Ozark“ mit Jason Bateman erhielt zwei Auszeichnungen für Julia Garner als beste Nebendarstellerin in einer Drama-Serie sowie in de Kategorie „Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series“.

Obwohl „Game of Thrones“ mit stolzen 32 Nominierungen in den Ring stieg und damit schon im Vorfeld alle Rekorde brach, erhielt  der beliebte Fantasy-Epos schließlich „nur“ zwei Auszeichnungen. So wurde „Game of Thrones“ zum einen als beste Drama-Serie ausgezeichnet, während Peter Dinklage einen Preis für seine schauspielerische Leistung als Fan-Favorit Tyrion Lannister erhielt.

Weitere Awards gingen unter anderem an Bill Hader für seine Verkörperung des Auftragskillers/Schauspielschülers Barry in der gleichnamigen Serie („Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series“), sowie an die Miniserie „Chernobyl“ („Outstanding Limited Series“).
