Critics Choice Awards Nominees: Mad Max Scores Big; Fargo Leads Television!

Critics Choice

The Critics Choice Awards were announced live on A&E this morning and a few interesting trends were immediately apparent.

In film, Mad Max: Fury Road, The Martian, Carol and The Revenant were the big leaders, while Fargo was the leader in television. Most of the cinematic favorites weren’t a huge surprise but the love shown Fargo – and a great many relatively new TV series, for that matter – was.

The vast majority of the CCA noms didn’t show up at the Golden Globes. Here though, nominations went to actors from Mr. Robot, unReal, The Knick, Master of None, Last Man on Earth, Bblack-ish, Fresh Off the Boat, The Grinder, The Leftovers, Rectify, Penny Dreadful and Jessica Jones – along with a few repeats (Transparent, for one).

Who saw that coming? For a complete list of nominees, follow the jump.
