Who has received a Carol Burnett Award for Achievement in Television?

Many talented people in the entertainment industry, as well as strong and captivating films and shows were recognized at the 2023 Golden Globe Awards. The awards show also has two separate honoree awards – the Cecil B. DeMille Award and the Carol Burnett Award.

Since 2018, one person has been recognized for their contribution to television on or off the screen. Honorees are chosen by their body of work and the lasting impact they’ve created in the industry and with audiences.

The award is named after actress, comedian, singer, and writer Carol Burnett. She first gained recognition on television thanks to The Gary Moore Show, and later went on to establish her own comedy show, The Carol Burnett Show.

Of course, this talent was the very first to receive the recognition at the Golden Globes. So who else has received the award since? We’ve got the answer for you below!

Who has received a Carol Burnett Award for Achievement in Television?

Though it has only been a few years since the Carol Burnett Award for Achievement in Television was introduced to the ceremony, that doesn’t make it any less important. 2023 saw the recognition go to television writer, director, and producer Ryan Murphy! We’ve provided a list of all the honorees:

• Carol Burnett (2019)
• Ellen DeGeneres (2020)
• Norman Lear (2021)
• Ryan Murphy (2023)

No one was given the award in 20222 because NBC didn’t broadcast the awards show following a HFPA boycott.

Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, which Murphy co-created, was nominated for four Golden Globes this year. Actor Evan Peters, who played the titular character, won in the Best Actor in a Limited Series, Anthology Series, or a Motion Picture Made for Television category.
