GAME OF THRONES Leads Emmy Nominations With 24

Nominations for the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards were announced on Thursday. Game of Thrones came out with the most nominations, scoring 24.

Based on these nominations, it looks like Emmy voters finally actually watched TV this year instead of just blindly voting for The Big Bang Theory and Jim Parsons. The lone holdout of shows that just keep getting nominated was Modern Family. Hopefully one of the far superior comedy series its nominated alongside take home the prize.

The 67 Primetime Emmy Awards are on Sept. 20 p.m. ET on Fox.
