The Golden Globes wasn’t a happy place for Game of Thrones fans. Despite the global popularity and critical acclaim, HBO’s fantasy epic was nominated for just eight Golden Globes over its eight-year run, and only scored a single award for Peter Dinklage as Best Supporting Actor. It was in competition for the Best Drama Series five times, though was defeated on every single occasion.
Where Game of Thrones faltered, House of the Dragon has triumphed. Last night, the prequel beat out Better Call Saul, The Crown, Ozark, and Severance to scoop the coveted Best Drama Series prize. It’s a richly deserved win for Westeros, and fans are celebrating the achievement on social media.
