The Peabody award recognizes distinguished and meritorious public service by American radio and television stations, networks, online media, producing organizations, and individuals. Reflecting excellence in quality, rather than popularity or commercial success, the Peabody is awarded to about 20-35 winners annually from more than 1,000 entries. Because submissions are accepted from a wide variety of sources and styles, deliberations seek "Excellence On Its Own Terms". Each entry is evaluated on the achievement of standards it establishes within its own context. The honorees include Netflix, ABC, Sundance TV, USA Network, HBO, Amazon Video, Lifetime, PBS and Cbeebies.

Cary Fukunaga - 'Beasts of No Nation'

Netflix won three Peabody awards including one for film and two for television. Indie/drama-war film 'Beasts of No Nation'; a superbly acted, strikingly photographed film about an African warlord training an orphan child to join his guerrilla army, it never loses sight of their humanity, brutal acts notwithstanding.

Krysten Ritter - 'Marvel's Jessica Jones'

Action/crime-drama series 'Marvel's Jessica Jones'; This one part superhero saga, one part neo-noir program asks unpopular questions about power and content, while constructing vivid and compelling characters. We help discover the strengths and vulnerability of Jessica, a hard-boiled detective who has rejected the role of superhero but must still figure out how to overcome the evil that threatens her, her friends and her community.

Left to Right Alan Young and Aziz Ansari - 'Master of None'

Comedy series 'Master of None'; turns profound and mundane, ridiculous and deadly serious, this imaginative, shape-shifting comedy chronicles the misadventures of a 30-year old Indian-American who's still trying to figure out what to do with his life. To say it resonates with young-adult viewers is an understatement.

Left to Right Jonathan Groff, Anthony Anderson, Tracee Ellis Ross and Kenya Barris - 'black-ish'

ABC network received the Peabody award for its sitcom series 'black-ish'; a bright boisterous, big-hearted comedy about an affluent African American family working overtime to keep it real, black-ish doesn't let jokes get in the way of insights about race, class, guns, and other hot-button topics that most popular entertainment shows scarcely mention.

Lisa Honig - 'Deutschland 83'

Sundance TV won the Peabody award for its drama/thriller series 'Deutschland 83'; a suspenseful, well-acted spy drama that takes place a few years before the Soviet bloc cracked and told from the perspective of East Germans and West Germans, it reheats Cold War conflicts in surprising ways.

Left to Right Adam Penn, Rami Malek, Kyle Brastreet, Chad Hamilton, Esam Esmail & Christian Slater - 'Mr. Robot'

USA Network won the Peabody award for its drama/thriller series 'Mr. Robot'.; a riddle wrapped in a mystery shrouded in a hoody, follows a tormented young man whose anti-social cyber-security whiz caught up in the techno-anarchy conspiracy. The series' twisting, turning, plot is almost as startling as its overly anti-corporate stance.

Justin Theroux - 'The Leftovers'

HBO won the Peabody award for its drama/fantasy series 'The Leftovers'; after an inexplicable cataclysmic - a massive random harvest - thins Earth's population by 140 million, the survivors in this challenging, deeply philosophical, boldly imagined drama are left to figure out how to get on with life in a world that's stopped making sense.

Left to Right Our Lady J, Jay Duplass, Ethan Kuperberg, Alexandra Billings, Jill Soloway, Joe Lewis & Ali Liebegott - 'Transparent'

Amazon Video won the Peabody award for its comedy series 'Transparent'; about a transsexual who is not just the lead character of this bold, honest dramedy, but the catalyst of its typically dysfunctional modern family's ongoing reevaluation of itself. Its broadened scope and lively sense of self-awareness, along with irreverent wit and poignant moments, made this series second season even stronger than the first.

Left to Right Shiri Appleby, Marti Noxon & Sarah Gertrude - 'UnREAL'

Lifetime won the Peabody award for its comedy series 'UnREAL'; a spot-on, behind-the-scenes send-up of ersatz "reality" shows like 'The Bachelor', 'UnREAL' makes viewers care about venal producers and petty contestants even as it skewers them.

Susanne Simpson - 'Wolf Hall'

PBS won the the Peabody award for its television mini-series 'Wolf Hall'; based on author Hilary Matnel's celebrated novels about the intrigues of Henry VIII's court, the mini-series is an intimate, humanized history, told from the viewpoint of the king's main man, Thomas Cromwell. Enchanted by literate scripting and superb acting with historic-location and natural-light filming, this exceptional series sets a new standard for the genre.

Left to Right Sergio Casci, Don Coutts, Cherry Campbell & Lindy Cameron - 'Katie Morag'

Cbeebies won the Peabody award for its family television series 'Katie Morag'; based on the popular book series by author Mairi Hedderwick, a feisty wee, red-headed girl and the Scottish island community she's growing up in are exquisitely realized in this series. Timeless, perhaps old-fashioned, but never precious or blindly idyllic, the series deals honestly and gracefully with death, loss, rivalry and other series themes.
