The 62nd Annual Emmy Awards with host Jimmy Fallon will be broadcasting live this Sunday. I, for one am really excited because this year has some great nominations ( Connie Britton and Kyle Chandler of Friday Night Lights I'm looking at you ) which should make for an exciting show.
In anticipation of the show i have posted my predictions on the winners. I'm usually pretty good at doing this so hopefully that tradition will continue.
OUTSTANDING DRAMA
“Breaking Bad”
“Dexter”
“The Good Wife”
“Lost”
“Mad Men”
“True Blood”
This is a really strong category with some amazing shows. I would have never guess that True Blood, Dexter, Lost, and Breaking Bad would ever be nominated together in the same field, and The Good Wife is a show that Emmy voters just love to death.
I think Breaking Bad which had an outstanding third season will keep Mad Man from winning a third time, but Lost may win for nostalgia alone.
OUTSTANDING COMEDY
“Curb Your Enthusiasm”
“Glee”
“Modern Family”
“Nurse Jackie”
“The Office”
“30 Rock”
I'm willing to bet that Modern Family and Glee will be on the Emmy ballot for man more years to come, and either one will knock 30 Rock down from the top.
LEAD ACTOR IN A COMEDY
Jim Parsons – “Big Bang Theory”
Larry David – “Curb Your Enthusiasm”
Matthew Morrison – “Glee”
Tony Shalhoub – “Monk”
Steve Carell – “The Office”
Alec Baldwin – “30 Rock”
Of course the Emmy voters were gonna choose to include Tony Shalhoub in this category and expect for him to win it making it his fourth.
LEAD ACTOR IN A DRAMA
Bryan Cranston – “Breaking Bad”
Michael C. Hall – “Dexter”
Kyle Chandler = “Friday Night Lights”
Hugh Laurie – “House”
Matthew Fox – “Lost”
Jon Hamm – “Mad Men”
My face lit up like a Christmas tree when I heard that Kyle Chandler got a long overdue nomination.
This category is gonna be a hard one because each and everyone of these men in it do some astounding work. Coming off a win last year Bryan Cranston is gonna be the man to beat and will take it this year too.
LEAD ACTRESS IN A COMEDY
Lea Michele – “Glee”
Julia Louis-Dreyfus – “The New Adventures Of Old Christine”
Edie Falco – “Nurse Jackie”
Amy Poehler – “Parks And Recreation”
Tina Fey – “30 Rock”
Toni Collette – “United States Of Tara”
I was a little skeptical of Lea Michele's nomination but after looking back on her year at Glee she definitely deserves to be there. I think the win will go to Edie Falco.
LEAD ACTRESS IN A DRAMA
Kyra Sedgwick – “The Closer”
Glenn Close – “Damages”
Connie Britton – “Friday Night Lights”
Julianna Margulies – “The Good Wife”
Mariska Hargitay – “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit”
January Jones – “Mad Men”
Like Kyle Chandler my face lit up when I heard Connie Britton was nominated. Friday Night Lights is a show I love dearly so I'm gonna go on a limb and say that Britton will take the award.
SUPPORTING ACTOR IN A COMEDY
Chris Colfer – “Glee”
Neil Patrick Harris – “How I Met Your Mother”
Jesse Tyler Ferguson – “Modern Family”
Eric Stonestreet – “Modern Family”
Ty Burrell – “Modern Family”
Jon Cryer – “Two and a Half Men”
First off, Ed O Neil not being nominated was a major oversight ,but I think his fellow costars will do him proud and take the Emmy in his place. My pick is Eric Stoneestreet.
SUPPORTING ACTOR IN A DRAMA
Aaron Paul – “Breaking Bad”
Martin Short – “Damages”
Terry O’Quinn – “Lost”
Michael Emerson – “Lost”
John Slattery – “Mad Men”
Andre Braugher – “Men of a Certain Age”
I'd love for Josh Holloway to take this and Andre Baugher always delivers on good performances, but this win belongs solely to Aaron Paul who turned in fantastic performance after performance on Breaking Bad this season. It would be criminal if he loses.
SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A COMEDY
Jane Lynch – “Glee”
Julie Bowen – “Modern Family”
Sofia Vergara – “Modern Family”
Kristen Wiig – “Saturday Night Live”
Jane Krakowski – “30 Rock”
Holland Taylor – “Two and a Half Men”
Jane Lynch meet Emmy, Emmy meet Jane Lynch
SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A DRAMA
Sharon Gless – “Burn Notice”
Rose Byrne – “Damages”
Archie Panjabi – “The Good Wife”
Christine Baranski – “The Good Wife”
Christina Hendricks – “Mad Men”
Elisabeth Moss – “Mad Men”
Archie Panjabi deserves this win look for Sharon Gless to take it . She has long history with The Emmys including nine nominations and three wins.
