Five other television shows – "The Crown," "Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story," "Only Murders in the Building," "Pam & Tommy" and "The White Lotus" – each received four nominations. "The Banshees of Inisherin" led all movies with eight nominations.
"Top Gun Maverick," which stars Downingtown native Miles Teller, was nominated for best drama. Berks County native Taylor Swift was nominated for best original song for "Carolina," from the movie "Where the Crawdads sing." Eddie Redmayne received a nomination for best supporting actor in a movie for his role in "The Good Nurse," a film based on a true story about a serial killer in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
The 2023 Golden Globe nominees were voted on by 96 members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and, for the first time, 103 non-members from 62 countries. The new voters were recruited from international industry organizations, prestigious foreign film festivals and the journalism industry.
The Golden Globes recognition is the latest token of success for "Abbott Elementary," which has broken ABC viewership and ratings records in its second season. The show's first season won three Emmy Awards. Brunson, a Philadelphia native, was recently interviewed by Oprah and honored as one of People magazine's 2022 "People of the Year."
The midseason winter finale of "Abbott Elementary," which featured the cast's holiday festivities, aired Dec. 7 and can be streamed now on Hulu. The show's second season will continue Wednesday, Jan. 4, at 9 p.m. on ABC.
