Streaming Services Rack Up Nominations at Golden Globes

The 2019 Golden Globes aired last night, a star-studded assembly of TV and film’s biggest stars. Since streaming services, such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, entered the Golden Globe scene, they have quickly racked up many nominations, translating only some of those nods into actual trophies. Netflix gained notoriety in 2019 for both their TV shows and original films, bring home more globes than any other year. By producing and distributing both movies and shows, Netflix was able to bring home more awards than any other single network or streaming service this year.

Netflix was the first to break ground at the awards, getting nominated for six awards in 2014 and receiving one award that same year for their hit series House of Cards. By 2015 Amazon entered the arena, getting three nominations and two awards that year. Hulu has had a more sporadic performance at the Globes. Last year they were able to win two of their three nominations for The Handmaid’s Tale.
