Golden Globes 2019 nominations: Netflix gets reality check with disappointing recognition for originals

This comes as a shocker all the more because of the wide critical acclaim Netflix originals have garnered over the years, with shows like 'Stranger Things' changing the game

The 2019 Golden Globe nominations were announced Thursday and in a shocking turn of events - Netflix ended up with a considerably less than impressive number of nominations when it came to original shows. While the streaming giant was able to top the list among streaming networks with regards to total nominations including films; if one tallies the number of Netflix originals that have made it to the major categories of nominations, it's disappointing. 

So far, the only Netflix shows that have bagged a prominent mention in the big categories happen to be 'Ozark', 'Glow' and 'The Kominsky Method.' In the Best TV Series (drama) category, only 'Bodyguard' managed to bag a spot as a Netflix show on the list, and even then, it is originally a BBC One production.
