It's TV's turn. The 2019 Emmy nominations are here, and it's a time for all the people out there who can't sit through a movie to rejoice.
It's also a time for people to mourn, since the Emmy Awards, airing 22nd September, officially mark the end of Game of Thrones (unless you count the confirmed prequel that is already causing some stir). The eighth season of the series is up for numerous awards, and vigilant fans would be more than happy to see the Stark family sweep. But what about the rest of the shows? One perhaps with less dragons, and even more drama, like Succession (a personal favourite), Handmaid's Tale, and Sharp Objects?

Or ground-breaking shows like FX's Pose and Netflix's When They See Us? Will they find a way to score a few nominations against the fantasy juggernaut, which already boasts 47 Emmy wins?
Check out the biggest shows and names of the past year with the 2019 nominations announcement, led by The Good Place's D’Arcy Carden and Crazy Rich Asians' Ken Jeong, below.
