The ceremony for the second annual Gotham Television Awards concluded Monday night in New York City, where winners for the year’s best in TV were revealed as the small-screen awards season hits high gear.
Netflix’s Adolescence led all nominees coming into the night with four, winning all of its fields; it tied in the supporting performance category with Owen Cooper’s win and Jenny Slate’s accolade for Dying for Sex. Meanwhile, Max’s The Pitt, CBS’ Matlock and FX/Hulu’s Dying for Sex, which had three noms apiece, took home a Gotham each; the former clinched the Breakout Drama category, while Kathy Bates won for lead performance in a drama. Apple TV+’s The Studio won the Breakthrough Comedy Series award.
The newly created category of Outstanding Original Film, Broadcast or Streaming went to HBO/Max’s documentary Pee-wee as Himself.
This year’s Gothams also celebrated their tribute honorees during the ceremony at Cipriani Wall Street: Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino, as well as director Hwang Dong-hyuk, will receive Creator Tributes; Elisabeth Moss and the cast of The Handmaid’s Tale will receive the inaugural Ensemble Tribute; Brian Tyree Henry will receive the Performer Tribute; Sheryl Lee Ralph will receive the Sidney Poitier Icon Tribute; David E. Kelley will receive the Visionary Tribute; and Parker Posey will receive the inaugural Legend Tribute.
Last year, the Gotham Film & Media Institute-organized Gotham TV Awards helped kick off the awards-season run of Netflix’s eventual Emmy winner Baby Reindeer, and also bestowed double wins on Paramount+’s Aussie comedy Colin From Accounts.
