Schitt’s Creek Nabs Five Nominations for the 2020 Critics’ Choice Awards
Here. For. This.
Moira Rose once famously said that her favourite season is ‘Awards Season’ and we suspect the crew of Schitt’s Creek will agree with her on that as the show has scored a total of five nominations at the 2020 Critics’ Choice Awards.
The nominations for next year’s ceremony were announced overnight and every single member of the Rose family was recognized for their work in the show. Catherine O’Hara has been nominated for Best Actress in a Comedy Series, Eugene Levy for Best Actor in a Comedy Series, Dan Levy for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series and former FASHION cover star Annie Murphy for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. Plus, the series itself is nominated for Best Comedy Series.
It’s not the first time the show has been recognized by the industry, having previously been nominated for four Emmys this year also.
In the Best Comedy Series category, the show is up against Fleabag, Barry, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Mom, One Day at a Time and PEN15. In the individual categories, Eugene is nominated alongside Ted Danson, Bill Hader and Paul Rudd amongst others, whilst O’Hara’s category is hotly contested with the likes of Christina Applegate, Alison Brie, Rachel Brosnahan, Kulia Louis-Dreyfus, Kirsten Dunst and Phoebe Waller-Bridge all also nominated.
Over in film, Martin Scorcese’s The Irishman received 14 nominations overall, Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood scored 12, and Greta Gerwig’s Little Women got a total of seven nods. Jennifer Lopez also scored her first Critics’ Choice nomination for Hustlers, and Booksmart (starring former FASHION cover star Beanie Feldstein) also received a nod in the Best Comedy category.
The Critics’ Choice Awards are largely considered to be one of the key indicators for the Oscars. According to EW, “The Critics’ Choice Awards have predicted the Oscar’s eventual Best Picture champion winner six times” since 2009.
