Everybody wants some, it seems. And Shōgun‘s awards presence shows no sign of slowing down. FX’s Emmy darling led the roster of nominations this morning at the Critics Choice TV Awards with 6 while several new comedies, including Netflix’s Nobody Wants This and FX’s English Teacher, nabbing both series and acting mentions.

    Disclaimer and Shogun deserve all the love.
    Still can't believe how deeply they impacted me.

    First time since the 2019 Globes that Kristen Bell is up for a major TV award. Finally, and hopefully the first of many nominations – and a win or two? – do I dare hope culminating with an Emmy notice?

    Good Place alums did better than good with American Film Institute today. A Man on the Inside (Mike Schur and Ted Danson) and Nobody Wants This top 10 of 2024
