Can someone tell me what's the idea behind "best dramatic presentation - longform"? It's the only category dominated by blockbusters, and I'm wondering whether that's by design.

It seems to be movie adaptations as opposed to shortform which are TV series adaptations.

I find it interesting that longform refers to film and short form are Tv series; I thought it would be the opposite.

A TV series is like a collection of short stories, where the episodes stand alone;aA film is like a novel.
