The 8 worst snubs from the Golden Globes nominations, from 'Watchmen' to women directors

The first half of "The Good Place's" final season recently wrapped up, but it wasn't good enough to land any nominations in the eyes of Globes voters.

It's representative of the Globes' overall spurning of broadcast television, which was shut out entirely. Broadcast shows have been slowly disappearing from the Emmys and now they are nowhere to be seen at the Globes.

"Veep" was only nominated twice for best comedy at the Globes in its seven seasons, so it's not surprising to see it missing here yet again. But that doesn't make it any less of a snub for a show that was one of, if not the, best comedies on television and concluded this year.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus was also snubbed for best comedy actress, despite being nominated five prior times (and, tragically, never winning).

"When They See Us" was an Emmys darling earlier this year with over a dozen nominations and two wins.

That didn't propel Ava DuVernay's Netflix limited series to Golden Globes recognition, though. It was completely shut out.

Here are some critically acclaimed movies directed by women released this year that failed to gain picture, director, or screenplay nominations from the Globes:

• Greta Gerwig's "Little Women"
• Alma Har'el's "Honey Boy"
• Marielle Heller's "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood"
• Melina Matsoukas "Queen and Slim"
• Lorene Scafaria's "Hustlers"
• Lulu Wang's "The Farewell"

Several of these movies, including "The Farewell" and "Little Women," received nominations in other categories.

De Niro gives his best performance in years in his long-awaited reunion with director Martin Scorsese in Netflix's "The Irishman," yet the Globes failed to recognize him in the best actor race despite Netflix otherwise dominating the nominations. It looks like his slot was taken by Christian Bale for his work in "Ford v Ferrari."

Jordan Peele's "Get Out" follow up, "Us," was released way back in March, but Nyong'o gives an exceptional dual performance in the horror thriller. She's been noticed by other awards ceremonies this year, including the Critics Choice Awards, which nominated her for best actress.

"Booksmart" made headlines earlier this year when it disappointed at the box office in its wide release. But it gained raves from critics and Beanie Feldstein was still nominated for best actress in a comedy. It should have picked up a best comedy nomination.
