Apple failed to claim any Golden Globe wins at the ceremony on Sunday. The Morning Show, Apple TV+’s flagship series, received a number of nominations from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association but did not win in any category.
Apple Stars Nominated for Golden Globes
Both The Morning Show‘s leading ladies, Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, received nominations in the Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series category. The series was also in the running for the Best TV Series – Drama Golden Globe. However, the Oliva Coleman scooped the Best Actress award, with Succession named the best drama series. Ms. Witherspoon and Ms. Aniston presented the first award at the ceremony.
