TCA Awards: Watchmen, Unbelievable And Schitt's Creek Lead Nominations
HBO's Watchmen and Netflix's Unbelievable lead the nominees for the 36th annual Television Critics Association (TCA) Awards, which this year will forego an in-person ceremony and instead announce the winners later in the summer.
Watchmen and Unbelievable both amassed four nominations from the critics organization, which counts several TVLine staffers among its members, while Hulu's Mrs. America, AMC's Better Call Saul, Pop TV's Schitt's Creek and HBO's Succession each netted three nods.
By outlet, HBO leads the TCA pack for a second consecutive year, with 16 total nominations. Netflix follows with 10, while FX/FX on Hulu earned seven. Among broadcast-TV networks, NBC fared best with five nominations, including for Outstanding New Program contender Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist.
