First came the ratings records. Then came awards recognition for Paramount Network’s Yellowstone and Netflix’s Squid Game.Yellowstone, long overlooked by major awards, is having a breakthrough on the heels of its highly rated fourth season.
Two weeks after Taylor Sheridan’s hit landed its first marquee nomination, for Ensemble in a Drama Series SAG Award, Yellowstone received a second, a PGA Award nomination for Best Episodic Drama.Korean drama Squid Game is having a similar dream run following its march into the Netflix records books as the streamer’s most watched series ever and its foray into pop culture as a global phenom.
It has been breaking ground as the first non-English language TV series to land major US awards recognition. Following its strong showing at the SAG Awards nominations with four noms, including drama ensemble (and a Golden Globes win), Squid Game this morning became the first non-English language show to earn a PGA Award nomination, facing Yellowstone for Best Episodic Drama.Possibly because of their nature recognizing producing excellence, the PGA Awards are known for recognizing commercial success — Bridgerton, which held the title of Netflix’s most watched series before being eclipsed by Squid Game, was nominated in the drama category last year, and another crowd pleaser on the streamer, Cobra Kai, is nominated in the comedy category this year, alongside fellow popular entries such as Apple TV+’s Ted Lasso and Hulu’s Only Murders In the Building.The guild’s winners picks are more in line with prestige fare typically recognized by the Emmys, with The Handmaid’s Tale, The Americans, Succession and The Crown named Best Episodic Drama the last four years.
