(NEXSTAR) — On Friday, GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics, announced the nominations for its 16th annual Dorian TV Awards — with AMC's "Interview with the Vampire," FX's "Shōgun," and Showtime's "Fellow Travelers" leading the pack.
New categories this year included Best Written Show, Best Genre TV Show, and a category honoring the Best LGBTQ Non-English TV show.
“A lot of our nominated shows are focused on outcasts trying to punch through norms, and their own fears and flaws, to find peace — a not-easy road, but one our members obviously loved following,” said GALECA founder and Executive Director John Griffiths. “It’s fitting we’re flagging these stories on the same day that, years ago, the brave souls of Stonewall — LGBTQ folks and allies — took to the streets of Greenwich Village to protest abuse and oppression and hate at the hands of bigots and bullies. Like those protesters, the writers of these Dorian Award-nominated shows remind us that you can’t just pout and clutch pearls if you want a better existence.”
