HBO’s “Game of Thrones” has stormed back after taking last year off to land 22 nominations...
and claim the title of the most-nominated primetime series in Emmy history.
The new nominations bring the “Game of Thrones” total to 129,
which beats the previous record for drama held by NBC’s long-running series “ER" (1994-2009).
“Game of Thrones” has broken "ER"s record in only seven seasons.
“Game of Thrones” has more nominations than “Cheers" also, which holds the record for a comedy series.
