The Television Critics Association has achieved something the Emmys haven’t yet dared to: give Rhea Seehorn her due for an epic performance in Better Call Saul. Kim Wexler would’ve been proud.

Announced on August 7, the 2023 TCA Awards feature multiple notable wins. Seehorn stands out because, despite six seasons of stellar work, she’s been nominated by The Television Academy for an Emmy only twice. She lost in 2022 to Ozarks Julia Garner, and chances are she’ll lose to The White Lotus’ Jennifer Coolidge whenever the 75th Emmys take place. Now she joins an excellent lineup of previous TCA drama category winners also snubbed by the Emmys, including The Americans’ Keri Russell, The Leftovers’ Carrie Coon, and This Is Us’ Mandy Moore.
