TELEVISION – As last year, HBO’s saga is full of Oscar nominations for US television with 23 selections, capping the post the other favorite of the season American Crime Story .
the war is perhaps rage in Westeros, but on the red carpet and the catwalks, the domination of Game of Thrones remains indisputable. The cult saga HBO arrived Thursday afternoon, as in the previous edition, topped the nominations 68th Emmys Awards to be awarded on September 18 in Los Angeles. The fantasy series drawn from the novels of George R. R. Martin is present in 23 categories, styling to post another favorite of the season American Crime Story . The series of Ryan Murphy ( Glee ) with Cuba Gooding Jr. and Sarah Paulson that recounts the trial of OJ Simpson landed 22 nominations. Third, there is Fargo with 18 chances to bring a statuette.
Game of Thrones who won the trophy last year again claims the title of best drama series alongside House of Cards , Downton Abbey , the Americans , Homeland and the young shoot Mr Robot that delves into the world of hackers. The hegemony of the HBO series is evident in the categories dedicated to comedians. The interpreter of Peter Dinklage Tyrion (who has already triumphed twice) is back in the category Best Supporting Actor and faces Kit Harrington, aka Jon Snow, who gets his first nomination. In women, Game of Thrones not up less than three actresses in the best supporting actor section. Already shortlisted in 2015, Emilia Clarke and Lena Headey welcome Maisie Williams who portrays Arya Stark. However, Sophie Turner who plays the eldest daughter Stark has not had the honors of the Emmys, despite a season in which his character was one of the most subtle narrative arches of the saga.
HBO also rules the comedy section with Veep
Often accused of conservatism, the Emmys Awards took advantage of the departure of its darlings Breaking Bad and Mad Men to inject some new blood. Unjustly forgotten for years, the series The Americans which narrates the life undercover in America in the Reagan years a couple of Soviet spies picks quotes not only in the premier best drama series section but also for its two main stars. Welshman Matthew Rhys will have to beat regulars like Kevin Spacey ( House of Cards ) and Liev Schreiber ( Ray Donovan ) and e wary of prodigy Mr Robot , Rami Malek. Keri Russell finds five of the six nominated last year, the winner Viola Davis ( Murder ) and the outsider Tatiana Maslany for Orphan Black . To the delight of critics, UnReal the young satire that lampooned the reality imposed Constance Zimmer in the category Best Supporting Actor.
In comedy, if Veep HBO unsurprisingly leads the way with 17 nominations followed by the revered Clear Amazon (10), the newcomer Blackish that the vicissitudes of an African-American father invites with three selections. Similarly, Aziz Anzari author of the very funny Master of None Netflix can hope to win the statuette for best comedy actor.
In the world of mini-series where American crime Story is carving the lion’s share, the British productions the Night Manager with Hugh Laurie and Tom Hiddleston as Sherlock and Benedict Cumberbatch are also present, along the remake of the legendary Roots .
Ramp-up Netflix
This happy procession elected has, unsurprisingly, its corollary big losers apart appointments as the headliners of Orange is the New Black that can not fit in the race for the statuette for best drama, epic and committed suit-drama Outlander of the heroines Girls where actresses CW nevertheless awards from the Golden Globes (Rachel Bloom, Crazy ex-girlfriend , Gina Rodriguez, Jane the Virgin ). Thwarting the flashback predictions, The Good Wife which was completed this year was not included in Sections best drama and best actress for Julianna Margulies impeccable. Also apart from the ever-present Maggie Smith, Downton Abbey does not place its players. Which is very unfortunate for Michelle Dockery and Laura Carmichael who brought the ultimate season of the saga of Julian Fellowes at arm’s length.
The 68th Emmys reflect changes in the US media landscape. HBO harvest still the record number of nominations but spends more than 120 citations in 2015 to 94, the FX (Cable channel The Americans , Fargo , American Crime Story ) from fourth to second with 56 nominations, and Netflix with 54 doubles its performance. Like last year, members of the Emmys also recognized the diversity of the industry. Where the Oscars went notorious for having retained any player from minorities, the Emmys have distinguished 21.
