Eternals, Star Trek: Discovery, Chucky, and Other Genre Projects Nab GLAAD Media Award Nominations

The 33rd annual GLAAD Media Award nominations are here, and — as is often the case — sci-fi and fantasy projects are well-represented on the list. Dubbed by the organisation as “the most visible annual LGBTQ awards show in the world,” the event honours fair representations of LGBTQ issues and people in settings both realistic and fantastical, as evidenced by its diverse array of nominees.

You can read the entire list here; it also includes nods for music, journalism, video games, and an entire Spanish-language category. But of most interest to Gizmodo readers (i.e., nerdy genre stuff!), the honorees include: Eternals and The Mitchells vs. the Machines for “Outstanding Film – Wide Release;” Batwoman, Doom Patrol, Star Trek: Discovery, and Supergirl for “Outstanding Drama Series;” 4400, Chucky, and Y: The Last Man for “Outstanding New TV Series;” The Fear Street Trilogy for “Outstanding TV Movie;” and Station Eleven for “Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series.”

There are also tons of nominees for “Outstanding Comic Book” and “Outstanding Graphic Novel/Antholgy,” which we’ll list in full.
