Apple TV+’s ‘Swagger’ and ‘Pachinko’ earn AAFCA TV honors

Apple has been recognized by the African American Film Critics Association (AAFCA) TV Honors for “Swagger,” the sports drama series inspired by NBA superstar Kevin Durant’s experiences in the world of youth basketball, and “Pachinko,” the Emmy Award-nominated drama chronicling the hopes and dreams of a Korean immigrant family across four generations as they leave their homeland in an indomitable quest to survive and thrive. 

Both series were recently renewed for second seasons on Apple TV+.

AAFCA TV Honors is an annual event recognizing outstanding work in the television industry by identifying exceptional content and performances that offer profound and refreshing representations of the world in which we live. The winners of the 4th Annual AAFCA TV Honors will be celebrated at a luncheon in Los Angeles on August 20, 2022. “Swagger” won the Best Ensemble Award. “Pachinko” won the Best International Product Award.
