Besides 鈥淭hrones鈥 and 鈥淒etective,鈥 the AMC shows 鈥Breaking Bad鈥 and 鈥Mad Men鈥 as well as PBS鈥檚 鈥Downton Abbey鈥 and Netflix鈥檚 鈥House of Cards鈥 will be battling it out for Outstanding Drama Series. 鈥淐ards鈥 made headlines last year when it became the first digitally聽distributed聽series to earn nominations in major Emmy categories.聽
