The final season of Game of Thrones is among the other nominees at the ceremony.
The fantasy epic, which came to a divisive climax earlier this year, has 14 nominations in seven categories.
They include nominations for best drama series plus nods in all four of the drama series acting categories.
The 32 Emmy nominations Game of Thrones received in July was the highest total for any programme in a single year.
The show has already won 10 prizes at the Creative Arts Emmys held last weekend, including awards for its casting, costumes, make‑up, and music.
Here's a rundown of the main nominees and the winners announced so far.
