Netflix Leads Critics' Choice Awards Nominations

Video streaming service Netflix drew the most Critics Choice Awards nominations within the television category, the Broadcast Television Journalists Association and The Broadcast Film Critics Association announced Wednesday.

Netflix garnered 20 nominations, with HBO finishing second with 15. FX drew 13 nods, while ABC generated 12, according to the BTJA.

FX's limited series Feud: Bette and Joan topped the list of nominated series with six, followed by HBO's Big Little Lies and Fargo (five nominations each), as well as Netflix's Glow (four nominations.)

Choosing a handful of outstanding programs or personalities to nominate in any category is a daunting task given the sheer volume of high quality options today on broadcast and cable television and streaming services, said BTJA President Ed Martin in a statement. But after much careful consideration and thoughtful debate I believe we have filled all of our categories with the most deserving nominees.

The CW Network will air the Critics Choice Awards ceremony live on Jan. 11.
