TELEVISION thriller "American Horror Story: Asylum" and medieval fantasy "Game of Thrones" led nominees for primetime Emmy Awards yesterday, while Internet streaming service Netflix made history with nods for its first foray into original programing.
Netflix landed 14 nominations for political drama "House of Cards," comedy "Arrested Development" and thriller "Hemlock Grove," a validation of its challenge to broadcast and cable networks. It is the first time programs not produced specifically for TV have won Emmy nominations in the top categories, with "House of Cards" competing for best drama and leading stars Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright in best actor and actress groups.
"Everybody is stepping up their game. It's an opportunity to tell stories on multiple platforms and it's great news for our industry," said Bruce Rosenblum, chairman and chief executive of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
FX's "American Horror Story: Asylum" pulled in 17 nominations including best miniseries and HBO's "Game of Thrones" landed 16 including best drama.
The Emmys are the top TV awards in the United States given out by the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. This year's awards will take place on September 22.
