The Television Critics Association announced Tuesday the nominees for the 30th Annual TCA Awards.
CBS took the most nominations with nine, while HBO, FX and Fox followed close behind with eight, seven and six, respectively.
AMC’s Breaking Bad will defend its Program of the Year title. But the show faces stiff competition from HBO’s Game of Thrones and True Detective, Netflix’s Orange Is the New Black, and CBS’ The Good Wife (pictured).
Other familiar titles up for noms include CBS’ The Big Bang Theory, which tied with Parks and Recreation for Outstanding Achievement in Comedy in 2013; BBC America’s Orphan Black, which saw actress Tatiana Maslany nab the Individual Achievement in Drama award; FX’s The Americans and Louie, which won Individual Achievement in Comedy for Louis C.K.
Newcomers to this year’s roster of nominees are Logo’s RuPaul’s Drag Race, FX’s Fargo, Fox’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Sleepy Hollow, and ABC Family’s The Fosters.
Winners will be named during an invitation-only gala on July 19 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. The ceremony is part of The Summer TCA tour, which begins July 8 and runs through July 23.
Along with the nominations, the TCA unveiled a new logo to help commemorate 30 years of the awards and hinted at a number of additional celebratory events to come.
“This is a monumental occasion for us, as we celebrate 30 years of the TCA Awards,” said Amber Dowling, TCA VP. “Starting with the unveiling of our new logo today, we have some special presentations in store to commemorate the event, as we welcome back past presidents and honorees, and announce our host next month. The evening is sure to be full of surprises, and I’m excited to share this incredible milestone with our members.”
