‘Americans,’ ‘Gianni Versace’ and ‘Dannemora’ lead Critics’ Choice Awards TV nominees

Share via

The Broadcast Film Critics Assn. clearly has a thing for crime, with Monday’s announcement of the TV nominees for the 24th annual Critics’ Choice Awards revealing lots of love for shows about skirting the law.

“The Americans,” famous for its super sneaky Russian spies; “The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story” and its depiction of the murder and aftermath; and “Escape at Dannemora,” with its tale of a real life jailbreak, lead all television nominees with five mentions apiece.

“Gianni Versace” and “Dannemora” are competing in limited series, with “Americans” in drama, but all four projects were buoyed by their performances, which got four nominations each.

Film nominees were also announced for the Critics’ Choice Awards, with “The Favourite” leading all nominees with 14, followed by “Black Panther” with 12 nominations.

The winners for both the TV and film categories will be revealed Jan. 13 at the Critics’ Choice Awards gala, broadcast on the CW.
