SAG Nominees: Best Male Actor in a Drama Series

My predictions: 3/5
Who’s missing: Hugh Laurie (House), Kelsey Grammer (Boss), Timothy Olyphant (Justified), William H. Macy (Shameless), Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones)

This category delivered an enormous surprise that was actually two surprises wrapped into one! Not only did “Suits” get a nomination in this category, but it wasn’t for Gabriel Macht, but instead for Patrick J. Adams. Congratulations to him – that was wholly unexpected. Kyle Chandler (Friday Night Lights) also managed to follow up his Emmy win with a mention here, knocking Hugh Laurie out of the race for the first time since 2005. They are joined by the expected trio of Steve Buscemi (Boardwalk Empire), Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad), and Michael C. Hall (Dexter).

Who could win? I think it’s Chandler’s to lose, but Buscemi or Cranston could win too.
