'Selma' was snubbed by the Screen Actors Guild, but got four nominations Thursday. And the landscape keeps changing — newcomers like Amazon got nods._ by [James Poniewozik](https://time.com/author/james-poniewozik/) ## James Poniewozik Dec 11, 2014 2:43 PM UTC by [James Poniewozik](https://time.com/author/james-poniewozik/) ## James Poniewozik Dec 11, 2014 2:43 PM UTC This is your annual reminder that unless you were eligible for a Golden Globe in television, you [should not care overmuch](http://entertainment.time.com/2013/12/12/the-golden-globes-tv-nominations-are-out-dont-get-too-excited/) about the Golden Globes in television. It’s a fun awards show representing the tastes of a small body of foreign journalists covering Hollywood, is unlikely to save any show from cancellation or boost its ratings–and unlike with movies and the Oscars, it bears little relation to the Emmys, except maybe to predict which new comedy might lose to _Modern Family_ next year. (Here’s the [full list of nominations](http://time.com/3628351/golden-globe-nominations-2014/), in film and TV.) But people like to care about things, and if you’re going to anyway, one regular pleasure of the Globes is its receptiveness to new names. (In that way, it’s almost the anti-Emmys.) It may even acknowledge new shows to a fault; I like _Brooklyn Nine-Nine_, but don’t think it was the top TV comedy last fall after half a season. But that means the Globes can be a good marker of shows and stars that are building buzz. All of which is to say: yay, Gina Rodriguez and _Jane the Virgin_! The season’s best new broadcast show and its most appealing new star were recognized in both the best comedy and comedy-actress categories. Yay, Jeffrey Tambor and _Transparent_, which also made the comedy lists! And the Globes also opened the books for _Silicon Valley_, which made my [top 10 TV series list for 2014](http://time.com/3592117/best-tv-shows-of-2014-poniewozik/), so I can’t complain. On the drama side, the Globes recognized Viola Davis in newcomer _How to Get Away With Murder_–though that’s less of a surprise as the Globes always enjoys a movie star. (Hence Liev Schreiber, yet again, for Ray freakin’ Donovan.) In general, there were fewer surprises and debuts on the actor and drama sides–though there was quite an impressive freshman showing for _The Affair_. (The foreign press, it would seem, is very fond of l’amour fou, or tomato chutney.) If there’s one interesting overall conflict to watch out for at the Globes, it will be the head-to-head showdown between _Fargo_ and _True Detective_, both of which the Globes placed in the miniseries category. (So give them points over the Emmys for consistency.) The Globes air Jan. 11 on NBC. Stock up your liquor cabinet, enjoy hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, and above all, enjoy the low, low stakes. ## Transcript Golden Globes nominations were announced Thursday morning and where the Screen Actors Guild Awards snubbed the globes did not. Selma, the movie scored four noms. Best director, best actor, best song and best motion picture drama. It is unacceptable that they use their power to keep us voiceless. [ NOISE ] Also nominated for best drama were Foxcatcher, The Imitation Game, Boyhood and The Theory of Everything. Another wow factor with the best TV comedy category. Big love for new shows or virgins. The CW's Jane the Virgin got two noms. You're pregnant. [ LAUGH ] Netflix's Orange is the New Black got three, and Amazon's Transparent had two. Starting to feel like home in here. And newcomer Silicon Valley from HBO, along with the network's longtime critical. Favorite Girls are up for the award too. Otherwise, across the TV categories, you'll see a lot of those familiar faces. Clair Danes for Homeland. The Good Wife earned nominations. Notably, Viola Davis scored for. How to get away with Murder. And Showtime's newcomer, The Affair, got three nods including one for Ruth Wilson. Back to movies, the list of best actress in a motion picture drama nominations looked exactly the same as the Screen Actor's Guild Award list of. From Wednesday. Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Aniston, Felicity Jones, Julianne Moore and Rosamund Pike. Which speaks to the question media have been asking for months, where are all the best actress options? The argument here, that women don't get enough opportunities in Hollywood. Then again, the best supporting actor category for the Globes was the same as SAG's too, though the supporting race is typically not as tight. Plus, because the Globes divide by drama and comedy musical, there's more wiggle room to get a nod. Bill Murray is up for best actor in a comedy musical for St. Vincent. And the movie's up for best picture. Who's ready for a Murray acceptance speech? Are you drinking alcohol? I honestly don't remember. And we're going deeper Into The Woods. Emily Blunt was nominated for a leading role, and the movie got a best picture, comedy, musical nom, Meryl Streep is up for best supporting. Ultimately the award season frontrunners were confirmed, Thursday. Leading the pack in overall nominations for the Globes was Birdman with seven, followed by Boyhood and The Imitation Game with five each. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3629745/golden-globe-nominations-tv/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3629745/golden-globe-nominations-tv/"},"headline":"In the Golden Globe Nominations, Some TV Virgins Experience Their First Time","datePublished":"2014-12-11T14:43:00.000Z","dateModified":"2026-10-01T09:02:16.814Z","description":"This is your annual reminder that unless you were eligible for a Golden Globe in television, you should not care overmuch about the Golden Globes...","url":"https://time.com/3629745/golden-globe-nominations-tv/","keywords":["Television","awards","golden globes","jane the virgin"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt87e3d40321ae2150/69876e3de53aba71b14d67c0/jav107a_0005b.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"James Poniewozik","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/james-poniewozik/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt87e3d40321ae2150/69876e3de53aba71b14d67c0/jav107a_0005b.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"JAV107A_0005b","caption":"Justin Baldoni and Gina Rodriguez in Jane the Virgin.","creditText":"Greg Gayne/The CW Network","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3629745/golden-globe-nominations-tv/","name":"In the Golden Globe Nominations, Some TV Virgins Experience Their First Time"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Golden Globes Noms: ‘Selma’ Scores","description":"'Selma' was snubbed by the Screen Actors Guild, but got four nominations Thursday.
