“Game of Thrones” took down “NYPD Blue’s” Emmy record for most nominations for a drama with a whopping 32, five more than the cop procedural’s 27 in 1994. But it won’t break — or even get to break — “NYPD Blue’s” record in another category: Best Drama Directing. There, everyone in Westeros will have to settle for second best even with a win.
With two Best Drama Directing victories under its belt and three bids this year, “Thrones” can only tie three-time champs come September, “CBS Playhouse,” “The Defenders,” “Hill Street Blues” and “The West Wing.” That means “NYPD Blue’s” benchmark of four wins, which it nabbed in 1994 and 1997-99, will stand for a few more years. No other active drama has more than one directing Emmy at the moment.
