Here they are, the nominations for Awards Daily’s 9th Annual Cooler Awards!
We did things a little differently this year. The team at Awards Daily TV collectively chose the nominations, rather than opening things up to voting for nominations as we have in years past. Don’t worry, though. We will open up the final selection round of Cooler Award winners to our dear readers starting August 15. Also, we capped each category at five nominees.
FX’s Fargo led the nominations with 6 bids including Limited Series, Actor in a Limited Series, Actress in a Limited Series, and multiple supporting nominations. Tying for second place were Netflix’s The Crown, HBO’s The Gilded Age, and FX’s The Bear.
Here are your 2024 Cooler Award nominees! Check back on August 15 to vote for the winners!
