At 2019 Emmys, will HBO or Netflix take home more statues?

It's the battle of the limited series! Plus, will "Game of Thrones" dominate? How about "Veep?" And will a hostless show hold viewers' attention?

Last year, Netflix had the most Emmy nominations. But this year, HBO nabbed the crown. One of the most competitive categories this year is Limited Series, and standouts include HBO's "Chernobyl" and Netflix's "When They See Us."

Also, the final season of "Game of Thrones" already set a record with 32 nominations. The show is expected to win the Best Drama series as well.

The comedy side is perhaps more open. Julia Louis Dreyfus is considered a lock for Best Actress for "Veep." For Best Comedy Series, "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" and "Fleabag" have also gotten a lot of attention.
