The controversial Golden Globes are making their comeback to TV. The 2023 Golden Globe nominations were announced on Dec. 12, and in typical Globes fashion, there were plenty of surprising nominations and upsetting snubs. Emmy-winning Abbott Elementary topped the TV leaderboard with five nominations, followed by The White Lotus, The Crown, Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Only Murders in the Building, and Pam & Tommy with four nods each. On the film side, The Banshees of Inisherin earned with eight nods, followed by Everything Everywhere All at Once with six nominations, including one for its lead star Michelle Yeoh.

Selena Gomez and Jenna Ortega earned their first Golden Globe nominations for Only Murders and Wednesday, respectively, competing against each other for Best TV Actress in a Comedy or Musical. In the drama categories, Zendaya earned her first Globe nod for Euphoria, despite being a two-time Emmy winner for her role. Aubrey Plaza, Jennifer Coolidge, and F. Murray Abraham were also recognized for their roles in The White Lotus.

In film, Grammy winners Taylor Swift, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga (a two-time Globe winner), will compete against each other for Best Original Song. Riri reacted to her first Globe nomination, for “Lift Me Up” from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, writing “God be showin out!” on Twitter.

Of course, with great nominations come surprising snubs. Paddy Considine was not recognized for his role on Game of Thrones spinoff House of the Dragon, despite fans praising his performance as the ailing as King Viserys. On the film side, Jordan Peele’s horror film Nope was completely snubbed, while Janelle Monaé didn’t receive a nod for her critically acclaimed turn in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, even though the film received two nominations.

After NBC opted not to air the ceremony in 2022 due to accusations of unethical behavior within the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, including reports that they didn’t have a single Black voting member, the Golden Globes will be returning to the network on Jan. 10, 2023. The ceremony will be hosted by Jerrod Carmichael after going hostless last year.
