‘Succession’ and ‘The Bear’ Dominate TCA Awards; Mel Brooks and ‘The Carol Burnett Show’ Honored (FULL WINNERS LIST)

HBO’s “Succession” was a critical darling, so it’s probably befitting that the show would end its run with two final lauds from the Television Critics Assn. The 39th Annual TCA Awards — which canceled its in-person event this year due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes — released its list of winners on Monday, with “Succession” grabbing the prizes for program of the year, as well as outstanding achievement in drama (an award it also won in 2022 and 2020).

Other major winners included FX’s “The Bear,” which airs on Hulu. The series’ first season was honored as outstanding new program, as well as outstanding achievement in comedy. The TCA spread the wealth when it comes to individual achievements, honoring “Better Call Saul” star Rhea Seehorn in drama, and “Poker Face” star Natasha Lyonne in comedy.

Also, Netflix’s “Beef” (outstanding achievement in movies, miniseries or specials) and “I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson” (which received its second consecutive win for outstanding achievement in variety, talk or sketch) won top prizes, while Amazon Freevee’s “Jury Duty” was named outstanding achievement in reality.

This year’s heritage award went to “The Carol Burnett Show,” the landmark sketch series that aired for 11 years on CBS and won 25 Emmys during its run. And the TCA’s career achievement award went to comedy icon Mel Brooks, whose career began in TV on Sid Caesar’s “Your Show of Shows” and who ultimately became an EGOT with four Emmys, three Grammys, three Tonys and an Oscar.

Elsewhere, Disney+ landed wins in both of the new younger-oriented program categories, for “Bluey” (children’s programming) and “Ms. Marvel” (family programming). And PBS landed the news and information win for the doc “The U.S. and the Holocaust.”

“This was a landmark year for television, as we said goodbye to several powerhouse series while welcoming a new generation of shows and stars into this highly competitive landscape,” said Salon TV critic Melanie McFarland, who is the outgoing TCA president. “Whether established hits or first-year favorites, our honorees exemplify the strength of television and the unique depth that it allows creators to explore. Though we are unable to gather in 2023, we sincerely congratulate each of this season’s winners, and we hope to celebrate in-person in 2024.”
