The Favourite and Green Book also earned five nominations each, as Olivia Colman, Emma Stone, and Rachel Weisz were recognized for their performances in the former film and Mahershala Ali and Viggo Mortensen recognized for their performances in the latter.
The Americans, Bodyguard, Homecoming, Killing Eve, and Pose received nominees for Best Television Series - Drama, while Barry, The Good Place, Kidding, The Kominsky Method, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel were nominated for Best Television Series - Musical or Comedy.
Some of the notable snubs this year include Atlanta being shut out of Best Television Series — Musical or Comedy and Widows receiving zero nominations. There were plenty of pleasant and unexpected surprises, though, including The Good Place picking up two nominations after being shut out last year, and Elsie Fisher being nominated for Eighth Grade. And because it was the Golden Globes, there were, of course, some downright bizarre choices, including Bohemian Rhapsody being nominated for Best Picture.
