  1. ↑ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They recognize several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

She also received two nominations for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress for the comedy films Charley and the Angel (1973) and Mel Brooks' Young Frankenstein (1974), and a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for Outstanding Female Actor in a Supporting Role for the romantic comedy Spanglish (2004).

From 1970 to 1975, Leachman starred in The Mary Tyler Moore Show as Phyllis Lindstrom, Mary Richards' snobbish, self-absorbed and interfering friend and downstairs neighbor.
