Justified en Olive meest genomineerd voor CCTA

De Critics’ Choice Television Awards klinken misschien niet zo belangrijk als de Emmy’s of de Golden Globes, maar ze worden zeker zoveel geapprecieerd in televisieland als hun bekendere broertjes en zusjes.
De lijst van nominaties wordt dit jaar aangevoerd door Justified en de miniserie Olive Kitterdige. Beiden kregen vijf nominaties. Daarna volgen The Americans, Bessie, The Good Wife, Transparent en Wolf Hall met elk vier. Bij de zenders voert HBO de lijst aan met grote voorsprong op CBS.

Dat Justified verrassend de meeste nominaties kreeg, heeft wellicht te maken met het feit dat het zesde seizoen ook meteen het laatste is. Misschien geven de ‘critics’ Justified de prijzen waar ze al die jaren recht op hadden.
Nu dat Breaking Bad de prijs voor ‘beste drama serie’ niet meer kan winnen (winnaar in 2013 én 2014) belooft het een spannende strijd te worden tussen Justified, Game Of Thrones, The Americans,The Good Wife, Homeland, Empire en Orange Is The New Black, dat vorig jaar won in de categorie ‘beste comedy serie’. In die categorie zijn genomineerd:
Veep, Broad City, Transparent, Jane The Virgin, Silicon Valley, You’re The Worst en Mom. Opvallend is ook dat de Better Call Saul en Bloodline enkele genomineerd werden in de categorie 'beste acteur in hoofd- of bijrol'. Vreemd genoeg kreeg House of Cards geen enkele nominatie. Nochtans was het derde seizoen zeker beter dan verschillende andere genomineerden.

De awards worden uitgereikt op 31 mei.
