SAG Predictions: Best Ensemble in a Comedy Series

This year, the Screen Actors Guild announces its picks one day before Golden Globe nominations are revealed, which means less for TV than it does for movies. The most distinctive aspect of the SAG TV prizes is that lead and supporting thespians are grouped into one category. Here are my best guesses for this category, which will be announced on Wednesday, December 14th.

Last year’s nominees:
Glee
Hot in Cleveland
Modern Family
The Office
30 Rock


I assume, as many will, that the love for Hot in Cleveland will subside and fade away in its second year. Two shows that should have made this list several years ago - The Big Bang Theory and Parks & Recreation are still fighting desperately for a spot, improving with age, and they’re still the most likely to join the list for the first time. New Girl has a decent shot, and Episodes would be a fun choice. Otherwise, it’s likely the list will stay mostly the same.

Current predictions:
Glee
Modern Family
The Office
Parks and Recreation
30 Rock
