The Critics Choice Association (CCA), formerly the Broadcast Film Critics Association (BFCA) is an association of television, radio and online critics. Their membership includes critics who review film and television. Founded in 1995, it is the largest film critics organization in the United States and Canada.[2] The organization has presented the Critics' Choice Awards, aim to recognize movies (with the Critics' Choice Movie Awards and the Critics' Choice Super Awards), television programs (with the Critics' Choice Real TV Awards, the Critics' Choice Super Awards and the Critics' Choice Television Awards) and documentaries (with the Critics' Choice Documentary Awards) each year since 1995.
The association also selects a Film of the Month and recommends other films throughout the year, based on the cumulative grades each film receives in the monthly balloting. Since 2018 the association organized the Celebration of Cinema and Television, a serie of three awards ceremonies to honor African Americans, Latino, Asian Americans and Pacific Islander Americans in film and television industries.
