I usually don’t care about the Annies, and this year isn’t much different, however we seem to have one of the better lineups of nominated talent which is good because in years past you would think that whomever selected the nominees got smashed in the head with a hammer.

In any case, outstanding animated programming like Rick and Morty, Archer, and others top line the International Animated Film Society, ASIFA-Hollywood’s 42nd annual Annie Awards. The Annies cover 36 categories and include Best Animated Feature, Best Animated Special Production, Commercials, Short Subjects and Outstanding Individual Achievements. The winners will be announced January 31 at UCLA’s Royce Hall.

See the full list here on Deadline, but in TWO WEEKS we tell you the REAL winners of animated programming on television and yes there will be surprises as to who is number one. But, do you guys like the nominees? Let us know in the comments below.
