Chalamet, who plays a wannabe table-tennis champ in the early 1950s in Marty Supreme, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DEADLINE\/status\/2008010409413112065\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">thanked Kylie Jenner in his acceptance speech<\/a>, saying: \u201cThank you to my partner for three years \u2026 I love you. I couldn\u2019t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Buckley, who played William Shakespeare\u2019s wife Agnes, opposite Paul Mescal, is already one of the leading contenders for the best actress Oscar, and here appeared to confirm her frontrunner status by defeating Renate Reinsve (Sentimental Value), Emma Stone (Bugonia) and Amanda Seyfried (The Testament of Ann Lee) to the top award. Buckley paid tribute to fellow Irish actor Mescal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@enews\/video\/7591711530543107358\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in her acceptance speech<\/a> saying: \u201cPaul, I bloody love you man. And I know loads of other women do in this room too, but tough shit \u2026 I could drink you like water working with you every single day. You\u2019re a giant of the heart and thank you so much for making me a little bit more human.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kylie Jenner and Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet at the ceremony.

However in terms of numbers, One Battle After Another was outdone by Frankenstein and Sinners, both of which won four, including best supporting actor for Frankenstein\u2019s Jacob Elordi and best original screenplay for Sinners\u2019 Ryan Coogler.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The TV portion of the awards proved another triumph for teen-violence drama Adolescence, co-created by and starring Stephen Graham; it won best limited series as well as three acting awards, for Graham and his co-stars Owen Cooper and Erin Doherty in their respective categories.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Seth Rogen\u2019s Hollywood comedy The Studio dominated the TV comedy prizes, winning best comedy series and acting awards for Rogen and supporting turn Ike Barinholtz. Likewise The Pitt edged its rivals in the drama awards, winning best drama series and acting prizes for Noah Wyle and Katherine LaNasa.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The lineup also contained a couple of jabs at Donald Trump: South Park, which has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/tv-and-radio\/2025\/dec\/11\/south-park-festive-special-christmas-jd-vance-trump\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">led the way in satirising the president<\/a>, was given the best animated series awards, while Jimmy Kimmel, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/culture\/2025\/dec\/19\/jimmy-kimmel-trump-primetime-speech\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">came under sustained pressure from Trump<\/a> after the shooting of Charlie Kirk, won best talkshow. And in a quirk reflecting the North American nature of the awards, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy won best movie made for television due to its US premiere on streaming service Peacock, despite it showing in cinemas in most other international territories.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The awards, which are voted on by the largest association of \u201cbroadcast\u201d film and TV critics in the US and Canada are organised by the Critics Choice Association and its offshoot the Broadcast Television Journalists Association.<\/p>\n<p>Full list of winners<strong>Film<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Best picture<\/strong> One Battle After Another<br \/><strong>Best actor<\/strong> Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet \u2013 Marty Supreme<br \/><strong>Best actress<\/strong> Jessie Buckley \u2013 Hamnet<br \/><strong>Best director<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/film\/paul-thomas-anderson\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Paul Thomas Anderson<\/a> \u2013 One Battle After Another<br \/><strong>Best original screenplay<\/strong> Ryan Coogler \u2013 Sinners<br \/><strong>Best adapted screenplay<\/strong> Paul Thomas Anderson \u2013 One Battle After Another<br \/><strong>Best supporting actor<\/strong> Jacob Elordi \u2013 Frankenstein <br \/><strong>Best supporting actress<\/strong> Amy Madigan \u2013 Weapons<br \/><strong>Best casting and ensemble<\/strong> Sinners<br \/><strong>Best foreign language film<\/strong> The Secret Agent<br \/><strong>Best animated feature<\/strong> Kpop Demon Hunters<br \/><strong>Best comedy<\/strong> The Naked Gun<br \/><strong>Best production design<\/strong> F1 <br \/><strong>Best costume design<\/strong> Frankenstein <br \/><strong>Best hair and makeup<\/strong> Frankenstein<br \/><strong>Best visual effects<\/strong> Avatar: Fire and Ash<br \/><strong>Best sound<\/strong> F1 <br \/><strong>Best cinematography<\/strong> Train Dreams<br \/><strong>Best song<\/strong> Golden \u2013 KPop Demon Hunters<br \/><strong>Best score<\/strong> Sinners<br \/><strong>Best stunt design<\/strong> Mission: Impossible \u2013 The Final Reckoning<br \/><strong>Best young actor\/actress<\/strong> Miles Caton \u2013 Sinners<\/p>\n<p><strong>Television<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Best drama series<\/strong> The Pitt <br \/><strong>Best comedy series<\/strong> The Studio<br \/><strong>Best actress in a drama series<\/strong> Rhea Seehorn \u2013 Pluribus<br \/><strong>Best actor in a drama series<\/strong> Noah Wyle \u2013 The Pitt<br \/><strong>Best actress in a comedy series<\/strong> Jean Smart \u2013 Hacks<br \/><strong>Best actor in a comedy series<\/strong> Seth Rogen \u2013 The Studio<br \/><strong>Best supporting actor in a drama series<\/strong> Tramell Tillman \u2013 Severance <br \/><strong>Best supporting actress in a drama series<\/strong> Katherine Lanasa \u2013 The Pitt <br \/><strong>Best supporting actor in a comedy series<\/strong> Ike Barinholtz \u2013 The Studio <br \/><strong>Best supporting actress in a comedy series<\/strong> Janelle James \u2013 Abbott Elementary<br \/><strong>Best limited series<\/strong> Adolescence <br \/><strong>Best actress in a limited series or movie made for television<\/strong> Sarah Snook \u2013 All Her Fault<br \/><strong>Best actor in a limited series or movie made for television<\/strong> Stephen Graham \u2013 Adolescence <br \/><strong>Best supporting actor in a limited series or movie made for television<\/strong> Owen Cooper \u2013 Adolescence<br \/><strong>Best supporting actress in a limited series or movie made for television<\/strong> Erin Doherty \u2013 Adolescence<br \/><strong>Best animated series<\/strong> South Park<br \/><strong>Best talkshow<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/tv-and-radio\/jimmy-kimmel\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jimmy Kimmel<\/a> Live!
