Netflix’s The Crown, Pop’s Schitt’s Creek and HBO’s The Undoing topped the television nominations this morning at the Golden Globes with six, five and four apiece, respectively.
The Crown earned a whopping five acting nominations today; two in lead for Olivia Colman and Emma Corrin (playing Princess Diana), two in supporting for Gillian Anderson (playing Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher) and Helena Bonham Carter and Josh O’Connor. It is the last season for each of those actors in those roles as new actors will take them on for the final two seasons.
Other Drama Series nominees – Ozark and Ratched – also earned acting nominations, but two found Drama Series as their only mentions; Lovecraft Country and The Mandalorian. Among the snubs were freshman series’ P-Valley, about a Mississippi Delta strip club and the bodice ripper period piece Bridgerton. Both shows were also snubbed in the acting categories.
In comedy, four of the five series nominees are freshman shows, with Emmy champ Schitt’s Creek the only veteran, nominated by the Globes today for the first time and for its final season. Emmy nominated hit What We Do in the Shadows was snubbed entirely. New shows The Flight Attendant and Ted Lasso earned first nominations for their brand new networks, HBO Max and Apple TV+, respectively.
Several acting categories, including all actress categories, were entirely white nominees this year. Ramy Youssef (comedy actor), Don Cheadle (comedy actor) and John Boyega (supporting actor) were the only non-white acting nominees for television this morning despite tremendous roles and performances available like Nicco Annan and Brandee Evans of P-Valley and Jurnee Smollet and Jonathan Major of Lovecraft Country.
This year’s Cecil B. DeMille Award recipient is Jane Fonda and the Carol Burnett Award will go to Norman Lear.
The nominations were announced by Golden Globe winners Sarah Jessica Parker and Taraji P. Henson. This year’s ceremony will air live on February 28 at 5pm PT on NBC. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler will return to host the mostly virtual event and do it from both coasts; Fey will be in the Rainbow Room in New York while Poehler will be at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills where the Golden Globes are traditionally held.
