The 2023 Hollywood Outsider Awards for Film and Television

Jan 04, 2023, 10:00 AM

On this episode of The Hollywood Outsider, we are breaking down our 2023 awards for both film and television. If you haven’t listened to our HO Awards before, we do ours a bit different, for example our "actor" category covers all genders, we do not separate it. For TV, cable and streaming all count, it just has to have had at least 3 new episodes in 2022. For movies, VOD and streaming all count.

If you want to follow along, the categories are below, so let us know what your picks are on our social media channels. Each of us will award our winners in each category, and at the end, we’ll combine ours with listener picks to determine what was the HO TV series and Movie of the Year! Before we go, we will each leave you with our 2023 HO Teachable Minute.
