The Critics Choice Association (CCA) announced the nominees for the 11th annual edition of its TV awards on January 18. Two Netflix dramas, “Ozark” and “The Crown,” lead with six bids each. Right behind at five apiece are the drama “Lovecraft Country,” the limited series “Mrs. America,” and the comedies “Schitt’s Creek” and “What We Do in the Shadows.” Scroll down to see the full list of 2021 nominees by shows.
The CCA is the largest critics organization in the United States and Canada, representing more than 400 television, radio and online critics and entertainment reporters. It was established in 2019 with the formal merger of the Broadcast Film Critics Association and the Broadcast Television Journalists Association, recognizing the blurring of the distinctions between film, television, and streaming content.
Winners will be revealed alongside those for the movie awards on a live telecast on the CW on March 7.
