HBO’s The Leftovers is making a sudden arrival in awards season.

Nominations for the 2016 Critics’ Choice Television Awards were announced early Monday and Damon Lindelof’s dark dissertation on loss and grief led the drama field with an impressive six nominations, including best series, lead actor (for Justin Theroux), lead actress (for Carrie Coon), supporting actor (for Christopher Eccleston) and supporting actress (for Ann Dowd and Regina King).

The Leftovers‘ strong showing comes less than a week after HBO renewed the show for a third and final season (and just days after the series’ Golden Globe nomination shutout).

On the comedy side, Amazon’s Transparent also scored a leading six nods, including best series and lead actor for Jeffrey Tambor, a 2015 winner in this category.

The acclaimed second addition of FX’s Fargo‘s led the limited-series field with eight total nods, making it the year’s most nominated program.

NBC’s recent well-received movie event The Wiz Live! garnered five nominations, while ABC’s black-ish, USA Network’s Mr. Robot and Showtime’s Penny Dreadful each earned four.

Mr. Robot wasn’t the only first-year series making a strong showing. Lifetime’s UnREAL, Netflix’s Master of None and Fox’s The Grinder all nabbed multiple nominations. Netflix’s rookie superhero saga Jessica Jones, meanwhile, received some love via a lead actress nom for Krysten Ritter.

Other notable nominations: Nashville‘s Hayden Panettiere and Jonathan Jackson, who play super-stressed couple Juliette and Avery on the ABC drama, each got recognized for their supporting work; NBC’s cancelled Hannibal landed two nods (for lead actor Hugh Dancy and guest star Richard Armitage); and FXX’s You’re the Worst walked off with nominations for best comedy series and lead actress (for Aya Cash).

Note: Because of the Critics’ Choice Awards’ newly combined TV/film format, only television shows airing within the seven months from June 1 to December 31 were eligible.

The Broadcast Television Journalists Association — of which TVLine’s Michael Ausiello serves on the executive committee and Matt Webb Mitovich is a member — will announce the winners at a Sunday, Jan. 17 awards gala broadcast live on A&E (8/7c).
