Watching the Emmy awards last night and seeing the Marvelous Mrs Maisel lose time after time to Flea Bag made me wonder about Flea Bag. Not only have I not seen an episode but I have never heard of Flea Bag. It's suddenly top of my list of shows to watch

Game of Thrones takes home Best Drama Series while the rest of the night belongs to Chernobyl, SNL, Ozark, and Phoebe WINNER-Bridge.
By Matt Fowler


Despite a polarizing final season, HBO's Game of Thrones took home the award for Outstanding Drama Series at the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards. Star Peter Dinklage also grabbed a prize, his fourth win for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series. Which is not only a record for that category, but it still makes him the only Thrones star to win an Emmy acting award for the series.
The night's other big winner was Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who nabbed Outstanding Actress in a Comedy Series and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series for her acclaimed Amazon series Fleabag. Jodie Comer, of the Phoebe Waller-Bridge-produced series Killing Eve, won for Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series.

Other big winners included Billy Porter (who won Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series for Pose), HBO's Chernobyl (which grabbed Outstanding Limited Series along with writing and directing for a Limited Series), and Ozark's Jason Bateman and Julia Garner.

Below you'll find the full list of the nominees, with the winners highlighted.
