Shōgun Shatters Game of Thrones Emmy Record, 18 Wins


Achilles.

Recommended Posts

Game of Thrones has held the record for most Emmy wins in a single season for nearly decade, picking up 12 statues for season 5—and then tying that record with season 6, and then again with season 8.

 

But the Creative Arts Emmys happened this weekend, and Shōgun cleaned house. Say goodbye and good riddance to Game of Thrones's biggest Emmy record!

Spoiler

1. Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama: Nestor Carbonell

2. Outstanding Casting in a Drama

3. Outstanding Period Costumes

4. Outstanding Period Hairstyling

5. Outstanding Main Title Design

6. Outstanding Period Makeup Design

7. Outstanding Prosthetic Makeup

8. Outstanding Picture Editing in a Drama

9. Outstanding Production Design in a Period Series

10. Outstanding Special Visual Effects

11. Outstanding Stunt Performance

12. Outstanding Sound Editing

13. Outstanding Sound Mixing

14. Outstanding Cinematography


And the best part is… Shōgun now holds the record for most wins in a single season before the main Emmys program

has even happened! The show has the potential to win several more awards next Sunday, where it is competing in 6 categories (Drama Series, Lead Actor, Lead Actress, Supporting Actor, Drama Writing, and Drama Directing) and favored to win… all of them, potentially setting the show up for an utterly historic and potentially unmatchable 20 wins.

The fact that Shogun season 1 is the equivalent of GOT's worst seasons isn't quite the W you think it is. :toofunny3:

I don't understand what's your point? This is about awards, if we wanna talk about quality let's compare GoT's S8 RT score of 55% while Shogun has 99% :sorry:

Shogun was kinda boring in the middle - I loved the first 3 episodes never cared for the rest. May have to rewatch

Episode 9 is tremendous; if you haven't gotten there you should absolutely revisit and complete the series!

I need to finish the rest of the season. The first episode was amazing. I'm happy it's getting so much acclaim because it's deserved.

The story is decent but I couldn't onboard with having a white man as a lead in a primary asian project. Congrats nonetheless
