Awards season is officially back, even though it feels like it just ended. The Emmy awards nominations are in, and this year there was some tough competition.

Game of Thrones has broken the record for the highest number of Emmy Awards won by any fictional series of all times. The sixth season of the HBO series swept all before it at the 2016 awards, becoming the most garlanded show in Emmys history in the process.
The HBO fantasy drama triumphed in three categories at Sunday’s ceremony, including outstanding drama series.

"Game Of Thrones" is the Emmy Awards front-runner after winning eight technical achievement awards.
     
The HBO fantasy saga was honored at Sept. 12's creative arts Emmys, the precursor to the main Sept. 20 ceremony, in categories including special visual effects and casting.
