The Producers Guild of America has unveiled PGA Awards nominations in its TV categories, ahead of the winners being revealed January 28 at the Beverly Hilton. The guild’s film noms will be announced January 10, and its documentary noms were revealed in November.
Among the nine TV categories announced this morning covering series/specials, children’s programs, long-form television, sports programs and digital series are last year’s winners Game Of Thrones, Real Sports With Bryant Gumbel, Last Week Tonight With John Oliver and Sesame Street (all from HBO). NBC’s The Voice and Crackle’s Comedians In Cars also return as defending champs.
On the list of newcomers are buzzed shows like Netflix’s Stranger Things, HBO’s Westworld and FX’s The People V. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story and Atlanta, and TBS’ Full Frontal With Samantha Bee.
Also on the list is Disney Channel’s Girl Meets World, which is up in the Outstanding Children’s Program category for Season 2 and Season 3. The network said last night the series would not come back for a Season 4 so the series finale will be S3 finale January 20.
Also during the PGA ceremony later this month, the PGA will also bestow James L. Brooks with its annual Norman Lear Award For Television. In addition, Focus Features’ Loving will get its Stanley Kramer Award as a production that “illuminates and raises public awareness of important social issues,” and Annapurna producer Megan Ellison will receive the Visionary Award.
