TCA Awards 2024: See All the Winners

It’s been five years since the Television Critics Association announced the winners of its annual TCA Awards in person: the pandemic meant the 2020 and 2021 events were virtual, and the WGA and SAG strikes last year meant the 2023 awards were announced in a press release. But in 2024, the event was back for its 40th year, with a ceremony held on Friday July 12 at the Langham Huntington in Pasadena.

Nominees for this year’s TCA Awards had been announced nearly a month ago, on June 10. Hopes were high for contenders such as The Bear (which garnered four nominations) and Ripley (a quintuple nominee). But both went home empty-handed.

Instead, it was Shōgun’s night. The 250-strong group of TV critics named the limited FX series its Program of the Year, and also awarded it with the Outstanding Achievement in Drama and Outstanding New Program honors. Actor Anna Sawai, who played Lady Mariko on the show, won the TCA’s (all gender-inclusive) Individual Achievement in Drama trophy, as well.

Meanwhile, Netflix’s Baby Reindeer took home the Outstanding Achievement in Movies, Miniseries or Specials award, while HBO’s Hacks took top honors in the comedy category. Star Jean Smart also came out on top, scoring the Individual Achievement in Comedy award.

Despite the controversy swirling around it, Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV won the top slot in the Outstanding Achievement in News and Information category, and John Mulaney beat out industry veterans including John Oliver and Jimmy Kimmel to win the Outstanding Achievement in Variety, Talk or Sketch crown for Everybody’s in LA.

Finally, the critics awarded The Traitors with its top Reality honors, Doctor Who won in the Family Programming category, and Bluey was tops in Children’s Programming. A full list of nominees and winners is below.
