Golden Globe nominations for this year will be announced in just a few weeks, so here’s a survey of the contenders and the most likely predictions at this time. Weigh in with your thoughts, and let me know if I’ve left off anyone important. A reminder that last year’s nominees mean zilch at the Globes and that the race is almost entirely unpredictable.
Last year’s nominees:
SALLY FIELD, BROTHERS & SISTERS
MARISKA HARGITAY, LAW & ORDER: SVU
JANUARY JONES, MAD MEN
ANNA PAQUIN, TRUE BLOOD
KYRA SEDGWICK, THE CLOSER
Ineligible last year:
GLENN CLOSE, DAMAGES
New contenders:
JULIANNA MARGUILES, THE GOOD WIFE
JADA PINKETT SMITH, HAWTHORNE
SONYA WALGER, FLASH FORWARD
Potential first-time nominees:
ELISABETH MOSS, MAD MEN
Past nominees:
HOLLY HUNTER, SAVING GRACE
PATRICIA ARQUETTE, MEDIUM
All five nominees from last year are equally likely to return this year, and Glenn Close should be back in the running because “Damages” aired this year. Six-time nominee Julianna Marguiles is also eligible again, this time for the well-received series “The Good Wife.” Holly Hunter missed out last year after scoring a nod for her show’s first year, and Elisabeth Moss, despite being picked by the Emmys and SAG as the “Mad Men” leading actress, missed out in favor of January Jones last year. There isn’t much to wonder about with this category, only who will be dumped.
Predicted nominees:
GLENN CLOSE, DAMAGES
JANUARY JONES, MAD MEN
JULIANNA MARGUILES, THE GOOD WIFE
ANNA PAQUIN, TRUE BLOOD
KYRA SEDGWICK, THE CLOSER
