2026 Gotham TV Awards: Winners List (Updating Live)
'Death by Lightning' and 'Big Mistakes' lead this year's nominees for the small-screen honors taking place in New York on Monday.
The 2026 Gotham TV Awards are underway in New York.
Big Mistakes and Death by Lightning lead the nominations for the third annual Gotham TV Awards, with four nods each.
A number of series landed three nominations apiece including I Love LA, Beef, DTF St. Louis, Alien: Earth and Pluribus.
I Love LA picked up the first award of the night, for breakthrough comedy series. The Chair Company‘s Tim Robinson won best lead performance in a comedy series, though he wasn’t on hand to accept the trophy.
After that, Greg Kinnear presented the first of several previously announced tribute honors to Michelle Pfeiffer, “calling her ‘the definition of cool; the gold standard.’ Accepting the Legend Tribute, Pfeiffer channeled her Catwoman character and licked the trophy. In her speech, she thanked the companies behind two of her recent TV projects, The Madison and Margo’s Got Money Troubles for supporting both series and “making room for complex and complicated women at the center of them.”
In addition to the competitive awards, previously announced honors will be given to the cast of Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette (Ensemble Tribute), Kerry Washington (the Spotlight Tribute), Michelle Pfeiffer (the Legend Tribute), Claire Danes (the Performer Tribute), Matt and Ross Duffer (the Visionary Tribute). The Awards are set to take place on Monday June 1 at Cipriani Wall Street in New York.
