The Broadcast Television Journalists Association (BTJA) today announced nominations for the 3rd annual Critics’ Choice Television Awards. CCTA is a great indicator of what to expect from this year’s Emmy nominations. Big Bang Theory and American Horror Story: Asylum lead the nominations with six nods each. HBO has the most nominations of any network with a total of 21.
I’m a little disappointed that Netflix’s show, House of Cards didn’t garner more nominations. It only received two nods, one for Kevin Spacey in Best Actor in a Drama Series and the other for Corey Stoll for Supporting Actor. Those two nominations are more than well-deserved, but Robin Wright didn’t deserve a snub. But it’s awesome to see Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Emilia Clarke get recognition for their work in Game of Thrones. As for comedy, I’m happy to see New Girl’s Jake Johnson get some love in the Best Actor category.
The awards ceremony will be held on Monday, June 10, 2013 at The Beverly Hilton Hotel. For the first time, you can watch the awards show live via UStream.
