We sure hope the Television Academy is taking notes.
GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics honored Pop TV’s Schitt’s Creek with 7 nominations for its inaugural television awards. It was followed close behind by Ryan Murphy’s glamorous Netflix limited series, Hollywood, with 6 nominations, respectively. Can Schitt’s and Hollywood become major players in the upcoming Emmy season? Phase one voting is set to begin this week so this can only boost Pop TV’s chances at securing more nominations this season.
In addition to performing categories, the Dorian TV nominations include honors in Campiest TV Show (where RuPaul has two chances to wrestle down the Tiger King) and Unsung TV Show (hey, Mrs. Fletcher!). This is the first year that GALECA has split the television awards from its film honors. This past January, GALECA awarded Pose TV Drama of the Year and its leading man, Billy Porter, walked away with TV Performance of the Year–Actor and Phoebe Waller-Bridge took home TV Performance of the Year–Actress and Wilde Wit of the Year (honoring a performer, writer, or commentator whose observations both challenge and amuse). Fleabag was also awarded TV Comedy of the Year.
