Winter and Game of Thrones might be over, but HBOs fantasy behemoth led the nominations for the 71st annual Emmy Awards with a historic 32 nods when the contenders were announced Tuesday.

Community alum Ken Jeong and The Good Place star DArcy Carden unveiled the Emmy nominations ahead of the awards presentation ceremony in September as television stars, both in front of and behind the camera, vie for Emmy gold on what could be a history-making night.

Thrones, which stands as the most decorated prime-time series in television history, and the increasingly real political satire Veep, are gunning for a victory lap after airing their final seasons. However, CBS long-running sitcom The Big Bang Theory, which ended after 12 seasons in May, was snubbed.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who is currently tied at eight wins with Cloris Leachman for the most trophies won by a performer at the awards show, could set a new record for her work on the HBO comedy series if the Emmy gods shine down upon her once again.

But Rachel Brosnahan and The Marvel ous Mrs. Maisel crew might prove too appealing to Emmy voters. The Amazon comedy, which essentially swept the awards during its first season last year , follows Game of Thrones as the most nominated series with 20 nods across major categories.

Elsewhere, Ryan Murphys groundbreaking FX series Pose, HBOs Succession and Netflix s Russian Doll all scored key Emmy nominations following critically acclaimed inaugural seasons.

This years Emmys also reflects the ongoing awards show skirmish between HBO and Netflix, which for the first time bested the cable giant in nominations in 2018 after a 17-year streak. The premium cable channel came out on top this year with a total of 137 nominations to Netflixs 117.
