‘Ozark,’ ‘The Crown’ and Netflix Lead 26th Annual Critics’ Choice Awards TV Nominations

Yahoo Entertainment

Signature Netflix dramas “The Crown” and “Ozark” lead the 26th Annual Critics’ Choice Award nominations.

“The Crown” and “Ozark” both landed six noms, which the Critics Choice Association announced on Monday, including best drama. The strength of those shows and others gave Netflix a total of 26 nominations — the most of any outlet. HBO was next, with 22 nominations.

HBO’s tally led with another best drama contender, “Lovecraft Country,” which earned five nominations. Other programs with five include FX’s “Mrs. America” (the most-recognized limited series); as well as Emmy darling “Schitt’s Creek” (Pop TV) and FX’s “What We Do in the Shadows,” both of which landed the most nods for a comedy.

Besides best drama, “The Crown” also secured noms for stars Olivia Colman and Emma Corrin (who will compete in the drama actress category), Josh O’Connor (drama actor), Gillian Anderson (drama supporting actress) and Tobias Menzies (drama supporting actor).

“Ozark’s” other nods include drama actor for Jason Bateman, drama actress for Laura Linney, supporting actor for Tom Pelphrey, and supporting actress for Julia Garner and Janet McTeer.

Besides “The Crown” and “Ozark,” the eclectic drama category features “Better Call Saul” (AMC), “The Good Fight” (CBS All Access), “Lovecraft Country” (HBO), “The Mandalorian” (Disney Plus), “Perry Mason” (HBO) and “This Is Us” (NBC).

As for comedy, besides “Schitt’s Creek” and “What We Do In the Shadows,” the category includes “Better Things” (FX), “The Flight Attendant” (HBO Max), “Mom” (CBS), “Pen15” (Hulu), “Ramy” (Hulu) and “Ted Lasso” (Apple TV Plus).

Meanwhile, this year’s nominations include a new category, for short-form (dominated by newcomer Quibi in its inaugural — and only — season), while nominees were not announced for an animated series category. In another change, the number of acting nominees were reduced this year: From eight to six in drama actor and drama actress, and seven to six in most other acting categories.

Besides Quibi, other streaming newcomers included HBO Max, with two nominations (both for “The Flight Attendant”). As for Netflix’s lead, it was bolstered by the comedy special category — in which it landed all six nominations to sweep the category.

Most of last year’s winners were not eligible due to hiatus, COVID-related production delays or the end of their series run — shows like “Fleabag,” “Watchmen” and “Succession.” That may open the door to more fresh faces.

Taye Diggs returns for a third consecutive time as host of the Critics Choice Awards, which air on Sunday, March 7 at 7 p.m. ET on The CW. (Film nominees will be announced on Feb. 7.) The 26th annual Critics’ Choice Awards show will be produced by Bob Bain Productions and Berlin Entertainment.
