The Gotham TV Awards Are Finally Here (and HBO Max is Winning Big!)

A wide shot of an awards stage with gold lighting and winners holding trophies
  • Who is winning at the Gothams.
  • HBO Max vs. Netflix drama.
  • The visual vibe of the night.

We just saw the first round of winners from the Gotham TV Awards! It is happening right now at Cipriani Wall Street in Manhattan. The air feels electric. We are keeping a close eye on the list.

Winners. Big ones. Laurie Metcalf and Tim Robinson already grabbed trophies. We are so happy for them. Finally! It is about time these funny people got their flowers.

The aesthetic of the room is pure New York. Think deep shadows and warm gold lights. It looks like a moody painting. Very classic. Very chic.

HBO Max is leading the pack so far. They have three wins already. Netflix had the most nominations with 22, but they are playing catch-up now. It is a real race.

Speaking of big stars, Alec Baldwin and Jim Gaffigan just finished a movie that we are already nervous about. If you love a good romance story, you should also check out how Ellen DeGeneres stole Portia’s heart back in the day.

The night is young. More names are coming. We will be right here watching the colors and the crowd. Just like Haley Bennett and Jack Whitehall at SXSW, these stars really know how to show up in style.

Our Take

We think it is great to see fresh faces winning. The Gotham Awards always feel more artistic than the big flashy shows. It is about the work. The vibe. We love it.
