‘Atlanta,’ ‘This Is Us,’ ‘Handmaid’s’ Lead 2017 TCA Awards Noms

New programming leads the 2017 TCA Awards nominations in the only major critics’ group to release nominations during the Emmy® voting window.

FX’s Atlanta, Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale, and NBC’s This Is Us led the field at the 2017 Television Critics Association (TCA) Awards. The 2017 TCA Awards announced their nominations today and will reveal winners in a ceremony scheduled for August 5.

HBO led the field with 12 nominations, but FX wasn’t far behind with 11. While overlap with the Television Academy remains tentative at best, the mentions help focus members as voting remains open until June 26.

“This was truly a landmark season for diversity in television, and the TCA nominations reflect this. Our members have chosen a variety of series that celebrate and represent a wide spectrum of performances,” said TCA President Amber Dowling. “With so many great programs—both new and returning—it was a real challenge for our members to whittle these nominees down. We’re excited to see which programs and performers make the cut as voting now gets underway to determine the TV standouts of the 2016-17 season.”
