FX’s ‘Shōgun’ Leads TCA Awards Winners
Max’s ‘Hacks’ garners multiple wins
FX’s freshman drama series Shōgun was the big winner during Friday's 40th annual TCA Awards ceremony, which recognized the best in programming for the 2023-24 TV season, according to the Television Critics Association.
Shōgun garnered four wins, including Program of the Year and Outstanding Achievement in Drama, TCA said. Max comedy series Hacks drew two awards wins for Outstanding Achievement in Comedy category, as well as Individual Achievement in Comedy for series star Jean Smart. Netflix miniseries Baby Reindeer won the award for Outstanding Achievement in Movies, Miniseries or Specials.
Disney Plus’s Bluey was the only repeat winner, taking home the statuette for the second straight year in the Outstanding Achievement in Children's Programming category.
The TCA also named late actor Andre Braugher as its Career Achievement recipient, and 1990s ABC drama series Twin Peaks as its Heritage Award winner.
“It was a year of brilliant television, from an epic historical drama to a harrowing documentary,” TCA president Jacqueline Cutler said. “We’re thrilled to honor all who created these shows, often against great odds, as many were worked on during the pandemic and stopped for the strikes. Congratulations to all of the winners.”
