Here is the post for today’s 2021 Golden Globe nominations for TELEVISION. Considering most people have spent the past year endlessly streaming TV shows on Netflix, Prime, Hulu and Disney+, I think the TV noms are probably of greater interest to many people, and as such, they feel more chaotic! Note: there are about one million TV categories and I’m not including them all, so you can see the full list here at Variety. One thing to note for the Bridgerton fans… Bridgerton wasn’t eligible for this year’s Globes nominations. That show will be eligible for next year’s Globes. Here are the big TV nominations:

I was expecting Emily in Paris, even though most people thought that show was so stupid. I loved Ted Lasso and I think Jason Sudeikis could very well end up sweeping the Best Actor awards this year, that’s how lovely and loveable he is in that role. The Crown’s nominations are no surprise, and I’m glad that Josh O’Connor was recognized for his stellar work, frankly, as Prince Charles. I also think Emma Corrin should win over Olivia Colman, but that probably won’t happen. What else? I haven’t seen The Great, but I’m happy to see those nominations, it looks like an interesting series. The Undoing got a bunch of noms but I’m not sure it deserved it. Except for Hugh Grant, who was terrific.
