Justified, Olive Kitteridge Lead Critics’ Choice TV Awards Nominations

FX’s Justified is gone, but not forgotten—at least among the critics. Justified leads the nomination tally for this year’s Critics’ Choice Television Awards, along with the HBO miniseries Olive Kitteridge.

Both programs are nominated for five awards each at the fifth annual event, which A&E will air live from Beverly Hills on Sunday, May 31, at 8/7c.

The Broadcast Television Journalists’ Association, which administers the awards, has also followed the lead of the Television Academy and reclassified Netflix’s hour-long Orange is the New Black as a drama. (But the BTJA is identifying Showtime’s Shameless as a comedy, also per the Emmys.) Orange won the award last year for Best Comedy Series.

And also, like the Emmys, the Critics’ Choice awards has nominated seven series (up from six last year) in the Best Comedy and Best Drama categories.

The changes have opened the door for several new series in the comedy competition. Returning from last year are Broad City (Comedy Central), Silicon Valley (HBO) and Veep (HBO), joined by new nominees Jane the Virgin (The CW), Mom (CBS), Transparent (Amazon) and You’re the Worst (FX).

In drama, last year’s winner, Breaking Bad, is gone, but its spin-off, Better Call Saul, is surprisingly nowhere to be seen. Instead, returning from last year are The Americans (FX), Game of Thrones (HBO) and The Good Wife (CBS), joined by the migrating Orange, Empire (Fox), Homeland (Showtime) and Justified.

ABC’s American Crime received three nominations, but is competing in the Best Limited Series category, opposite 24: Live Another Day (Fox), The Book of Negroes (BET), The Honorable Woman (Sundance), Wolf Hall (PBS) and Olive Kitteridge.

Walton Goggins landed two nominations for two different shows: Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for Justified (FX) and Best Guest Performer in a Drama for Sons of Anarchy (FX).
