Game of Thrones Season 7 gets nominated for Critics’ Choice Awards

Game of Thrones is currently one of the biggest shows on Television, and as such it’s not missing any awards! The awards season is on, and as we reported recently, Game of Thrones Season 7 was recently nominated at the Golden Globes, and now the show has gained nominations at yet another : The Critics’ Choice Awards. Read on!

The nominations for the Critics’ Choice Awards were recently revealed, in a report by Deadline. First off, Game of Thrones has bagged itself a nomination for Best Drama Series. Here is the full list of nominees :

American Gods (Starz)
The Crown (Netflix)
Game of Thrones (HBO)
The Handmaid’s Tale (Hulu)
Stranger Things (Netflix)
This Is Us (NBC)

Moving on, Peter Dinklage, who plays the role of Tyrion Lannister on the show, has been nominated for theBest Supporting Actor in a Drama Series, which is rather weird since he has significant screentime on the show and could have easily been nominated in the Best Actor category, rather than being in the Supporting. Anyway, check out the full list of nominees, below :

Bobby Cannavale – Mr. Robot (USA)
Asia Kate Dillon – Billions (Showtime)
Peter Dinklage – Game of Thrones (HBO)
David Harbour – Stranger Things (Netflix)
Delroy Lindo – The Good Fight (CBS All Access)
Michael McKean – Better Call Saul (AMC)

Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen) has bagged herself a nomination in the female counterpart of the category, which is even weirder since she is even more prominent than Dinklage. The full list of nominees are as below :

Gillian Anderson – American Gods (Starz)
Emilia Clarke – Game of Thrones (HBO)
Ann Dowd – The Handmaid’s Tale (Hulu)
Cush Jumbo – The Good Fight (CBS All Access)
Margo Martindale – Sneaky Pete (Amazon)
Chrissy Metz – This Is Us (NBC)

As far as the Best Actor categories go, Game of Thrones didn’t get any nominations. While the category placements are weird, Game of Thrones has a good chance of bagging some wins at the Critics’ Choice Awards, scheduled to be held on January 11, 2018, at 9:00 p.m. EST. What do you think? Will Game of Thrones win in the nominated categories? Talk to us in the comments, down below!
