SAG award nominations: Cable dramas and network sitcoms dominate
Cable dramas and network comedies were in the spotlight Wednesday morning as the nominees for the 19th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards were announced.
In the drama category, cable favorites like “Homeland,” “Mad Men,” “Breaking Bad” and “Boardwalk Empire” picked up multiple nominations, while network series were all but overlooked. The same was true in the TV movie or miniseries category, where HBO’s “Hemingway & Gellhorn” and “Game Change” and History’s “Hatfields & McCoys” were honored.
On the comedy side, the situation was reversed: only one cable series, “Nurse Jackie,” made the cut in the ensemble category, with SAG favoring network sitcoms like “30 Rock,” “Modern Family” and “The Big Bang Theory.”
The SAG Awards will be handed out on Sunday, Jan. 27.
