Sono ben 19 le nomination ottenute da Geme Of Thrones agli Emmy Awards 2014, il maggior premio televisivo a livello mondiale: la premiazione si svolgerà il 25 agosto 2014 al Nokia Theater di Los Angeles, ma la notte scorsa sono uscite le attesissime nomination.
Nominata in 19 categorie, svetta la serie televisiva statunitense di genere fantasy creata da David Benioff e D.B. Weiss, che ha debuttato il 17 aprile 2011 sul canale via cavo HBO. Nata come trasposizione televisiva del ciclo di romanzi Cronache del ghiaccio e del fuoco (A Song of Ice and Fire) di George R. R. Martin, è diventata in breve tempo un autentico fenomeno televisivo, con un pubblico vastissimo.
Seguono a ruota Fargo (18 nomination), American Horror Story (17 nomination) e Breaking Bad (16 nomination). Può ritenersi soddisfatta anche la nuova entrata Orange Is The New Black che ha raggiunto ben 12 nomination, al pari di Downton Abbey, True Detective e Sherlock: His Last Vow.
