The final list of People’s Choice Awards nominees has been unveiled, giving the public a chance to cast a vote and pick their favorite movies, TV shows and musical acts of the year.

Infinity War led the pack in the movie categories with a total of six nods, but it was closely followed by another critically acclaimed Marvel movie. Black Panther picked up five nominations, and it will be competing against the third Avengers movie for the coveted movie of the year award.

TV and music categories took people by surprise since the write-in votes played an important role this time around. South Korean boy band BTS was nominated in four different categories, mostly thanks to their strong fan base who supported them every step of the way. Same can be said about fantasy series Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments. It led the way in the TV nominations, after getting a total of five nods – mostly thanks to the write-in vote.

The strong fan base can get the nominees over the finish line at the People’s Choice Awards since the public is in charge of picking the winners. Voting will be open until October 19, but we’ll have to wait until November 11 to see the full list of winners.
