Buzz buzz! Showtime’s Yellowjackets took home two awards back to the hive at GALECA’s Dorian TV Awards this year. Melanie Lynskey, on the heels of her win at the Hollywood Critics Association, takes TV Lead Performance. Netflix weepy, Heartstopper, beat out more adult fare to win Best LGBTQ TV Show, and The Other Two (my beloved number one show from last year) wins the title of Best Unsung TV Show. Those of us who fear for The Other Two‘s survival after the HBO Max/Discovery merger can celebrate today! In a move of pure queer devotion, Jennifer Coolidge takes home two awards.
Abbott Elementary takes another win for Best TV Comedy right in the middle of Emmy voting. Are we looking at a network upset on September 12th? See below for an entire list of winners!
