The Television Critics Association have just announced their picks for the best shows of the 2023-2024 TV season, and in a pleasantly surprising development, Marvel Studios' recent Disney+ series, X-Men '97, picked up two major nominations.
The animated revival scored nominations for Outstanding New Program and Outstanding Achievement in Family Programming.
Though X-Men '97 proved to be a big hit with fans and critics alike, it's rare that an animated series - and a superhero animated series at that - would receive any TVA noms, especially outside of the Children's Programming section.
What are the mutant heroes' chances of picking up the win? The show is up against some heavy hitters such as Shōgun, Baby Reindeer and Ripley, so we wouldn't be placing any bets!
Check out a full list of the nominations below. This year's TCA awards will take place on Friday, July 12.
