Itâs time for another episode of Take the Black Live, the show where we discuss the latest and greatest news from the world of fantasy and sci-fi entertainment, with special attention paid to our delightful and deadly friends in Westeros.
This week, obviously, weâre talking about the Emmys! Game of Thrones didâŠgood. I mean, it won the top award of the night, plus a win for Peter Dinklage for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama, plus 10 other statues at the Creative Arts Emmys. So why does the showâs victory lap feel a little muted? We get into it.
