2026 TCA Award nominees 

LOS ANGELES –June 12, 2026 – The Television Critics Association (TCA) announced today the nominees for the organization’s 42nd Annual TCA Awards, honoring standout series and stars from the 2025-2026 television season. Winners will be announced later this summer across TCA’s social media.

TCA is a non-profit organization of more than 220 professional television journalists from across the United States and Canada. Nominations were determined solely by a vote of members, selected from shows distributed on major broadcast, cable, and streaming platforms from June 1, 2025 to May 31, 2026.

The Television Critics Association (TCA) condemns ABC’s indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, which is the latest in a series of actions aimed at silencing critics of the Trump administration.

The Walt Disney Company’s capitulation to the demands of the FCC chair this week represents a wanton disregard of the First Amendment’s guarantee to a right for people and the press to speak without government retribution.

The Television Critics Association (TCA) has unveiled a fresh new logo ahead of next week’s announcement of the 41st Annual TCA Award winners, which will be unveiled across the organization’s social media.

The new identity was created by designer and illustrator Rosie Lin, working with TCA’s board of directors. TCA members voted on the final brandmark, an innovative design that simultaneously pays tribute to television’s incredible past while emphasizing the organization’s focus as it looks ahead to a dynamic future.

TCA’s new look makes its debut just in time for the organization to announce the winners of its annual TCA Awards on Wednesday, August 20.
