GOT's Deserving Win:
#GameOfThrones needed to win if the #Emmys are serious about celebrating television and event television, bc a show which was appointment viewing as #GOT was, won't happen again.

Not the Best Season But the Best Show:
It was their worst season yet IтАЩve always said #GameOfThrones was so good overall, it could only be benchmarked against itself. I thought Succession was better this season, but Thrones will always own a piece of my heart.
