EMMY AWARDS 2018


                                              The Complete List of 2018 Emmy WinnersThe 2018 Primetime Emmy awards are here, and with the 70th annual ceremony comes all types of opportunities to revisit some of the year’s best televised content. (And though to define the recipients of this year’s awards as “television” creators and stars feels somewhat disingenuous, considering the variety of sources of nominees—from Netflix and Amazon to Hulu and beyond—it’s the Television Academy that votes, so here we go!) 

This year’s nominees included some historic nods—Sandra Oh is the first woman of Asian descent nominated for best lead actress in a drama series, for Killing Eve; Game of Thrones’s Peter Dinklage now holds the honor of the most supporting actor nominations ever in the drama performance category with seven total; Ted Danson has received his 13th nomination (for The Good Place), his first in 25 years for his work in comedy—and some more expected ones, like the 20 nominations for The Handmaid’s Tale, the 22 for Game of Thrones, and 21 for Westworld. But who will go home, statuette in hand? See below for the complete list of winners.
