I just caught this piece of news over on AMC’s blog. It would appear that on Friday January 21st The Motion Picture Sound Editors announced their nominees for the 2011 Golden Reel Awards, and The Walking Dead was honored with a total of four nominations for Best Sound Editing: Long Form Dialogue and ADR in Television; Best Sound Editing: Long Form Sound Effects and Foley in Television; Best Sound Editing: Short Form Dialogue and ADR in Television; and Best Sound Editing: Short Form Sound Effects and Foley in Television.

I have to admit that I’ve never heard of the Golden Reel Awards, but it’s still pretty cool that The Walking Dead has been nominated in so many categories!

Along with their four nominations for TWD, AMC also picked up nominations for both Mad Men and Breaking Bad in the categories of Best Sound Editing: Short Form Dialogue and ADR in Television and Best Sound Editing: Short Form Sound Effects and Foley in Television categories, respectively.

For the full list of nominees, head to http://www.mpse.org/goldenreels/2011awards/2011tvnominees.html

The awards will be presented during a ceremony on Sun., February 20th, at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel in Los Angeles.

Obligatory plug: Pick up The Walking Dead Season one of DVD and Blu-Ray from my Amazon store!
