Nominees are pictured in alphabetical order.
With many expected past nominees out of the running this year, like Jaime Pressly, Jenna Fischer, Conchata Ferrell, and Elizabeth Perkins, as well as presumed nominee Dana Delany, this race is fairly unpredictable. Holland Taylor is the only “Two and a Half Men” nominee I think could ever really win an Emmy, given her past win for a similarly recurring role on “The Practice”, but not this year. Jean Smart is great on “Samantha Who”, but I don’t see her getting rewarded this year, given the relatively low impact of the show awards-wise. Amy Poehler is a major wild card, since variety performers aren’t usually eligible in this category. Her performance throughout the episode is far too scattered, and doesn’t really compare to the other actresses here. Vanessa Williams makes for a great villain on “Ugly Betty”, and could easily prevail with a semi-amusing episode where she throws Betty White out of a cab. I think this race belongs to the wonderful Kristin Chenoweth of “Pushing Daisies”, who is positively charming in her episode. This is a perfect role for her, and I think she’ll be rewarded as such.
Who should win (based on entire season): Kristin Chenoweth
Who should win (based on individual episodes): Kristin Chenoweth
Who will win: Kristin Chenoweth (alternate: Vanessa Williams)
