So that's the element of surprise for me - that a few series seem to soak up a disproportionate chunk of the awards/nominations - title after title after title. I haven't done any statistical analysis of this or anything, so this is just my impression, but that's the issue for me - not that I don't like this series on its own.
Ah, I see. Yes, I have noticed this before as well. It could be a case of reputation influencing the voters, perhaps? Seems a shame sometimes, there are so many good series out there that can get lost in the shuffle.
