I've been so busy with "school" and shit lately that I almost completely forgot about the Emmy Awards, my second favorite awards show. The Emmys get a lot of shit for being boring and long, even though they're usually as funny and shorter than the oscars. And the actual trophies/awards are pretty badass, with the angel holding a globe and shit. Anyways, I love TV and I love awards. Here are my predictions on the categories that count.
DRAMA
OUTSTANDING DRAMA
Lost
Breaking Bad
Dexter
Mad Men
True Blood
The Good Wife
Should Win: True Blood. Even though the current season is better, last season was absolute entertainment.
Will Win: Lost. I would say Mad Men but last season wasn't it's best. And Emmy loves rewarding shows that have recently passed on.
OUTSTANDING ACTRESS IN A DRAMA
Julianna Margulies (The Good Wife)
Mariska Hargitay (Special Victims Unit)
Glenn Close (Damages)
Kyra Sedgwick (The Closer)
January Jones (Mad Men)
Connie Britton (Friday Night Lights)
Should Win: Connie Britton. She is hands down the best actress on TV at this point.
Will Win: Julianna Margulies. She does amazing work in The Good Wife and she has the one thing none of these other actresses have, HYPE.
OUTSTANDING ACTOR IN A DRAMA
Jon Hamm (Mad Men)
Kyle Chandler (Friday Night Lights)
Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad)
Hugh Laurie (House M.D.)
Michael C. Hall (Dexter)
Matthew Fox (Lost)
Should Win: Kyke Chandler. The best actor currently on TV. It's also a shame that Hugh Laurie still hasn't won Emmy.
Will Win: Bryan Cranston. Threepeat, and he really is amazing in Breaking Bad, I also wouldn't be surprised if Matthew Fox sneaks in there.
OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTOR IN A DRAMA
John Slattery (Mad Men)
Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad)
Martin Short (Damages)
Terry O’ Quinn (Lost)
Michael Emerson (Lost)
Andre Braugher (Men of a Certain Age)
Should/Will Win: Terry O' Quinn. He proved that an actor can totally rock two different roles in the same show. Almost at the same time.
OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A DRAMA
Sharon Gless (Burn Notice)
Christine Baranski (The Good Wife)
Christina Hendricks (Mad Men)
Rose Byrne (Damages)
Archie Panjabi (The Good Wife)
Elisabeth Moss (Mad Men)
Should Win: Christina Hendricks. Who doesn't love Joan?
Will Win: Rose Byrne. Damages may not get the viewers but this past season was Rose's best work. And Emmy already proved its love for her co-star Glenn Close.
COMEDY
OUTSTANDING COMEDY
Glee
Modern Family
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Nurse Jackie
30 Rock
The Office
Should/Will Win: Modern Family. One of the funniest shows of ALL TIME. Glee could also win but the second half of its season was pretty bad.
OUTSTANDING ACTRESS IN A COMEDY
Lea Michele (Glee)
Tina Fey (30 Rock)
Toni Collette (The United States of Tara)
Julia Louis-Dreyfus (The New Adventures of Old Christine)
Edie Falco (Nurse Jackie)
Amy Poehler (Parks and Recreation)
Should Win: Amy Poehler. Parks and Rec is fucking hilarious and Poehler is rocking that shit. Lea is krunk too but her best acting comes from the dramatic scenes.
Will Win: Probably Falco or Collette. Whatever.
OUTSTANDING ACTOR IN A COMEDY
Larry David (Curb Your Enthusiasm)
Alec Baldwin (30 Rock)
Matthew Morrison (Glee)
Steve Carell (The Office)
Jim Parsons (The Big Bang Theory)
Tony Shalhoub (Monk)
Should Win: Steve Carell. Still can't believe he hasn't won one of these already.
Will Win: Jim Parsons. He has great timing, and same as Marguiles, HYPE.
OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTOR IN A COMEDY
Chris Colfer (Glee)
Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother)
Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Modern Family)
Jon Cryer (Two and A Half Men)
Eric Stonestreet (Modern Family)
Ty Burrell (Modern Family)
Should Win: Chris Colfer. The best male actor on Glee his performance is highly underrated.
Will Win: Eric Stonestreet or Ty Burrell. They both deserve it and are both equally hilarious.
OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A COMEDY
Jane Lynch (Glee)
Kristen Wiig (Saturday Night Live)
Jane Krakowski (30 Rock)
Julie Bowen (Modern Family)
Sofia Vergara (Modern Family)
Holland Taylor (Two and A Half Men)
Should/Will Win: Jane Lynch. Sue Sylvester, nuff said.
REALITY
OUTSTANDING REALITY SHOW HOST
Ryan Seacrest (American Idol)
Phil Keoghan (The Amazing Race)
Tom Bergeron (Dancing with the Stars)
Heidi Klum (Project Runway)
Jeff Probst (Survivor)
Should Win: Heidi Klum. She's uber sassy and awesome.
Will Win: Jeff Probst, I mean he won twice already.
OUTSTANDING REALITY SHOW COMPETITION
Project Runway
Top Chef
The Amazing Race
Dancing wi.h the Stars
American Idol
Should Win: Dancing with the Stars. Did you see Kate Gosselin's 'Paparazzi' dance?!
