‘Watchmen,’ ‘Maisel,’ ‘Thrones’ Lead DGA TV Nominations

After being delayed by four days, the 2020 Directors Guild of America nominations for television in comedy and drama series are now available. This follows Monday’s announcement of other television categories, including limited series direction, which are also included below. The delay was “due to a re-vote related to a newly implemented electronic entry submissions process,” according to the DGA.

The 72nd annual DGA Awards will take place on Saturday, January 25.
