"Game of Thrones" star Peter Dinklage, just like a true Lannister, walked away from the 2011 Emmy Awards with a big victory under his belt in the Best Supporting Actor category. It was the only major win for the HBO series at this year's show, but those of you who've read the books already know that we haven't seen anything yet — in other words, if you enjoyed the first season, the next season of "Thrones" is sure to deliver countless sleepless nights and an equal number of future Emmys.

"Thrones" is currently shooting its second season, taking its cues from the second novel in author George R.R. Martin's series, "A Clash of Kings."

In the end, Tyrion Lannister might win gold. Emmy gold, that is.

If you've caught any of our "Game of Thrones" coverage by now, then you know we're a bit hopelessly obsessed reasonably enamored with HBO's new fantasy series.

Did you tune in for the 2010 Emmys last night? I'll tell ya, it's the best that particular awards show has been in years. It helped that we've had a truly excellent year of television, with old shows striding along while new ones carved out their own fanbases. Even from just a production standpoint, it was a great awards show. Everyone was involved. Host Jimmy Fallon was at his best. And the funny stuff peppered between the award presentations was... well... funny! Just check out this little short from one of the night's top winners, "Modern Family."

The 2010 Emmy Award nominations are in, and there's good news for "Lost" fans — a lot of good news, in fact.

All of them, in my humble opinion, well deserved.
