FX leads the Golden Globes TV nominations, with Netflix falling behind Amazon and HBO
FX led the Golden Globes TV nominations on Thursday with "The Americans" and "American Crime Story," and Amazon came out ahead of Netflix.
"The Americans"
This year's Golden Globes nominations were announced on Thursday, and FX led the television pack with a total of 10 nominations.
That's mostly thanks to "The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story" and "The Americans," which landed four and three nominations, respectively — the most of any of the series nominated. "The Americans" was nominated for best drama, best actress in a drama (Keri Russell), and best actor in a drama (Matthew Rhys, who won the Emmy this year for the show's final season).

Other FX shows to be acknowledged were "Pose" with two nominations (best drama and best actor in a drama, Billy Porter) and "Atlanta" with one (best actor in a comedy, Donald Glover).
In the streaming war, Amazon Prime Video and HBO tied for the second-most nominations with nine each. They beat Netflix, which gained eight nominations. Hulu trailed with just two nominations, as "The Handmaid's Tale," which won best drama last year, was shut out from that category.
