LOS ANGELES, Dec. 8 (UPI) -- "Angels in America" and "Playmakers" made the cut as the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation announced nominees Monday for its annual media awards.
"Angels in America" was nominated for best TV movie, along with "Cambridge Spies" (BBC); "Normal" (HBO); "A Soldier's Girl" (Showtime) and "Tipping the Velvet" (BBC America).
"Playmakers," ESPN's irreverent take on life in the NFL, was nominated for best TV drama series, along with "Degrassi: The Next Generation," "Nip/Tuck," "Queer as Folk" and "Six Feet Under."
"It's All Relative," "Oliver Beene," "Reno 911!" "Sex and the City" and "Will & Grace" were nominated for outstanding comedy TV series.
There were two nominees for best feature film -- "Bend It Like Beckham" and "Under the Tuscan Sun." This year's GLAAD Media Awards will recognize, for the first time, reality TV and Spanish-language programs.
