Baru saja gelaran Emmy Award yang ke 68 di langsungkan pada pagi hari tadi waktu Indonesia barat. Ajang yang khusus memberikan penghargaan pada acara televisi ini tak kalah bergengsinya dengan Oscar. Kali ini seperti dugaan banyak orang Game of Thrones memecahkan rekor sebagai peraih piala Emmy terbanyak dalam satu kali kesempatan dengan 12 piala yang mereka bawa pulang. Tentunya tak hanya Game of Thrones yang membawa pulang banyak piala pada kesempatan kali ini. The People vs Oj Simpson juga menggondol 5 piala untuk pajangan mereka.
Berhasilnya Rami Malek memenangkan piala Emmy pertamanya lewat akting memukau dalam serial Mr Robot juga menjadi kejutan tersendiri karena pesaingnya sangat kuat seperti Kevin Spacey (House of Card) dan Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock).
