The Television Critics Association (TCA) announced today the nominees for the organization’s 40TH Annual TCA Awards, putting the spotlight on the best performances, series, creators, and stars from the 2023-2024 TV season. The TCA is a non-profit organization of more than 230 professional television journalists from the U.S. and Canada. They made their nominations based on programming available on broadcast, cable, and streaming outlets. Winners will be announced at an exclusive ceremony held in-person at The Langham Huntington in Pasadena on Friday, July 12.
The TCA presents awards in 12 distinct categories, highlighting outstanding achievements in Drama; Comedy; Miniseries; News and Information; Reality; Variety, Sketch or Talk Shows, and more, headlined by the organization’s coveted Program of the Year Award. Two additional awards will be announced on July 12.
This year saw a tie for the top spot, FX and Netflix lead all competitors with 16 nominations each, dominating the Program of the Year category with three nominations for FX and two for Netflix. HBO | Max is in second place with 13 nominations, followed by Disney+ with six; while ABC, PBS/PBS KIDS, and Prime Video are tied with three. Rounding out the list is Apple TV+, NBC, and Peacock with two each; and Adult Swim, Bravo, CBS, Comedy Central, ID, Nat Geo, and Showtime with one apiece.
On the series front, freshman favorites led the charge, as FX and Netflix once again split top honors with a TCA-best five nominations for first-year standouts “Shōgun,” “Baby Reindeer,” and “Ripley.” The trio will face off throughout the night and across some of the TCA’s premier categories, including Program of the Year—going up against FX entries “The Bear” and “Reservation Dogs,” and HBO | Max’s “Hacks”—Outstanding Achievement in Drama, Outstanding New Program, and Individual Achievement In Drama, pitting “Shōgun” stars Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai against the talented Mr. Ripley himself, Andrew Scott, and the object of “Baby Reindeer”’s obsession, Richard Gadd, as well as Juno Temple (“Fargo”), and Academy Award® winner Jodie Foster (“True Detective: Night Country”).
Elsewhere, past winners Quinta Brunson and Jean Smart seek to reclaim Individual Achievement In Comedy gold once more, going up against Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri, Renée Elise Goldsberry, and Devery Jacobs; “The Bear” aims to send the competition back into hibernation to nab its second-consecutive Outstanding Achievement in Comedy award; late-night heavyweights Jimmy Kimmel, John Oliver, and Seth Meyers duke it out in Outstanding Achievement in Variety, Talk or Sketch; “We’re Here” and “Conan Must Go” hit the road in Outstanding Achievement in Reality; and it’s the ultimate comic book showdown as DC’s Superman battles Marvel’s X-Men in Outstanding Achievement in Family Programming, among others.
“This was a terrific television season in every genre, and our nominations reflect those riches,” TCA President Jacqueline Cutler says. “We’re thrilled to celebrate our 40th Awards and even more delighted to do so in person.”
