Streep nominated for record-breaking Golden Globe

Meryl broke her own record this morning by being nominated for her 33rd Golden Globe (she has won eight). The performance of course was for her supporting turn as Loretta Durkin in the comedy series Only Murders in the Building. Streep was joined by the three main cast members in being nominated (all in lead), Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. The show was also recognized in the Best Television Series Musical or Comedy category, for a total of five noms, second only to HBO's Succession, which landed a whopping nine. 

The rest of the nominees in Meryl's category are as follows:

Elizabeth Debicki (The Crown) 
Abby Elliott (The Bear) 

Christina Ricci (Yellowjackets) 
J. Smith-Cameron (Succession) 
Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso)

I have not seen Elliot or Ricci's performances, but I'd honestly be fine with any of the other three winning, as I think they're all brilliant. I love Succession so much and Smith-Cameron's character, Gerri, that I kind of have a soft spot for her. But Elizabeth Debicki was also SO spot on as Princess Diana in this last season of The Crown. And speaking of last seasons, even though the third and final season of Ted Lasso wasn't as critically acclaimed as the previous two, it could be a nice sort of cherry on the top of a great series for Hannah Waddingham (I suppose not unlike for Smith-Cameron). You never know though, maybe Meryl will surprise us and come away with the win. 

The Globes ceremony will be telecast on CBS and Paramount+ on Sunday, Jan 7. The full list of nominees can be seen here.
