The producers of “Breaking Bad” can extend their victory lap into next year at the Producers’ Guild Awards, which unveiled its slate of nominees for TV series, specials and digital series Tuesday.
The guild will announce its nominees for the film categories in January, and the show will take place Jan. 19 at the Beverly Hilton hotel.
“Breaking Bad,” which wrapped its final season this fall and then won the Emmy’s top dramatic prize, is one of five nominees for The Norman Felton Award for Outstanding Producer of Episodic Television, Drama. Other nominees include “Downton Abbey,” “Game of Thrones,” “Homeland” and “House of Cards.”
“House of Cards” earned Netflix one of its two nominations, as the latest season of “Arrested Development” is one of five nominees on the comedy side. Broadcast TV got a little more love from the guild in that category, as NBC’s “30 Rock,” CBS’ “The Big Bany Theory” and ABC’s “Modern Family” all scored nominations.

HBO earned the most nominations of any network with six.
Half of those nominations came in the sports program category, where its “24/7,” “Hard Knocks” and “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel” will face off against a pair of ESPN programs, “SportsCenter” and “Monday Night Football.”
The PGA will also be honoring one digital series. The five nominees in that category are “Burning Love,” “Epic Rap Battles of History,” “The Lizzie Bennet Diaries,” “Video Game High School” and “Wired: What’s Inside.”
