Apple TV hit comedy lands the most acting award nominations of all TV shows

Apple TV’s recent strong awards season continues today, as hit comedy The Studio has just become the single most-nominated TV show at the 32nd Annual Actor Awards.

The Studio scores five nominations at The Actor Awards, more than any other TV show

This weekend brings the Golden Globes, where Apple is expected to take home some big wins. But ahead of that ceremony, another upcoming awards show has announced its nominations.

The Actor Awards is a rebranded version of the SAG-AFTRA awards. Essentially, it’s a show where actors honor their own.

The awards ceremony is airing live on Netflix in March, but the just-announced nominations already point to potentially a celebratory night for Apple TV.

Apple honorees include Rhea Seehorn for Pluribus, Gary Oldman for Slow Horses, and more. But the most notable Apple TV achievement is that The Studio landed more nominations than any other single TV show.

The hit comedy scored two nominations each in the “Outstanding Performance” categories for male and female actors, plus another nod for ensemble cast.

Its five nominations total beats out any other TV show this year.
