The SAG Awards nominations this year notably excluded performances from non-English-language films, despite previous recognition of international films like 'Parasite' and 'Emilia Pérez,' highlighting a potential bias or focus on American actors within the union. Several films and performers received multiple nominations, but the absence of non-English performances marks a significant shift in the awards' recognition patterns.
The finale of Stranger Things 5 set a new Netflix New Year's Day viewership record with 31.5 million views in a week, and the season entered Netflix's Top 10 Most Popular English TV list with 105.7 million views overall. Additionally, the Korean film The Great Flood topped the non-English film list with 11.1 million views, and other series like Run Away and Emily in Paris also performed well. The viewership numbers are based on complex Netflix methodologies, making exact counts difficult to verify.
The American Film Institute (AFI) has announced its top 10 films and TV programs for the year, with Netflix's Spanish-language musical 'Emilia Pérez' making the film list, while 'Gladiator II' was notably absent. AFI's rules allow non-English films with significant American involvement to qualify. The TV list includes FX's 'Shōgun' but excludes 'Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.' A special award will be given to Netflix's 'Baby Reindeer.' The AFI Awards luncheon is scheduled for January 10, 2025.
