Overview
- The third annual Gotham Television Awards were held at Cipriani Wall Street on Monday, June 1, and juries named Vince Gilligan’s Pluribus Breakthrough Drama, Rachel Sennott’s I Love LA Breakthrough Comedy, and DTF St. Louis Outstanding Limited or Anthology.
- Katrina: Come Hell and High Water won Breakthrough Nonfiction and Reflection in a Dead Diamond took Outstanding Original Film, while Cory Michael Smith won Outstanding Performance in an Original Film for Mountainhead.
- Major acting prizes went to Tim Robinson (lead comedy), Chase Infiniti (lead drama), Michael Shannon (lead limited), Laurie Metcalf (supporting comedy), Babou Ceesay (supporting drama), and David Harbour (supporting limited).
- Netflix entered the night with a 22-nomination lead but, per live tallies reported at the ceremony, finished with three wins — equal to HBO Max’s three wins — narrowing the streamer’s pre-ceremony advantage.
- The show also presented tributes to industry figures including the Duffer brothers, Michelle Pfeiffer, Claire Danes, Kerry Washington, and the cast of Love Story: JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette, and serves as a juried, pre-Emmy moment that can influence voter attention.
