The 2014 Emmy Awards nominations have arrived.

The nominations were announced this morning by Mindy Kaling and Carson Daly in Los Angeles.

'Fargo' followed closely behind with 18, 'American Horror Story: Coven' with 17 and the final season of 'Breaking Bad' with 16 (HBO's 'True Detective' scored 12 nominations with both Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson nominated for Best Actor).
