The Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the nominees for the 79th annual Golden Globe Awards despite the broadcast of the ceremony being dropped by NBC and ongoing controversy surrounding the organization. 

According to the HFPA, it has “completely overhauled their bylaws, implementing sweeping changes from top to bottom that address ethics and code of conduct, diversity, equity and inclusion, governance, membership and more.” During that time, it has diversified its membership with the induction of 21 new members, “all of whom are first-time Golden Globe voters.”

This year, Netflix led this year’s film categories with 17 total nominations for The Power of the Dog, which tied Belfast for the most nods at 7, Tick Tick… Boom and Don’t Look Up. Other top films include King RichardLicorice Pizza and West Side Story

On the TV side, HBO was able to fend off Netflix with a total of 15 nominations for its linear and HBO Max programming, including Succession and Hacks. Other top series include The Morning ShowTed Lasso as well as fall breakouts Only Murders in the Building and Squid Game. 

Monday’s nominations also come after the HFPA’s recently elected president, Helen Hoehne, defended the organization’s decision to move forward with an awards ceremony.

At the time, she told Vanity Fair not having the event was never an option as it would break a 78-year-old tradition. "I can say with confidence that it’s not going to be the regular award show,” she admits. "We realize that this is not the tone this year, so we are taking a humble approach for 2022 -- we’re just honoring the people we think showed most excellence in 2021."

"Sometimes it takes a hard wake-up call to change… But then when you make the changes, I think everyone deserves a second chance,” Hoehne added, calling the organization the “HFPA 2.0.”
