Instead, it was Netflix that dominated with 17 nominations in the television categories, while HBO picked up 15, The Wrap reports. Hulu and Amazon Prime Video also both scored five nominations, while the new Apple streaming service Apple TV+ got three thanks to The Morning Show, which landed in the best drama series category and earned nods for its leads, Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon.
Outside of TV, Netflix also led the film categories with another 17 nominations, more than double that of any other distributor, with four of its films — The Irishman, Marriage Story, The Two Popes, and Dolemite is My Name — getting nominated in the top movie categories.
The 2020 Golden Globes will be handed out on Jan. 5 and will air on the nomination-free NBC.
