On the film side, Martin Scorsese's The Irishman scored 14 nominations, while the newly-released Marriage Storygot an impressive eight nominations.

Meanwhile, TV newcomers like Watchmen,Evil, and On Becoming a God in Central Florida have made enough of an impression to earn a few nods for the Critics' Choice TV Awards, and shows like Schitt's Creek, Fleabag, and Pose, as well as the limited series When They See Us and Chernobyl, are continuing to receive the prestige treatment for their creatives and cast members.
