The competition: Patrick J. Adams’ degreeless law genius (Suits), Steve Buscemi’s Atlantic City gangster (Boardwalk Empire), Kyle Chandler’s devoted coach (Friday Night Lights), Bryan Cranston’s meth cooker (Breaking Bad), and Michael C. Hall’s kind-hearted serial killer (Dexter).
For your information: Buscemi won this award last year, and Hall won the year before. This is Cranston’s third nomination, and though he has won three consecutive Emmys, he has yet to win a SAG award. Chandler won the Emmy last year for his performance in the final series of “Friday Night Lights,” and this is the first nomination for freshman series star Adams. Since its inception in 1994, this award has gone to the same performer twice on many occasions - Dennis Franz, Anthony Edwards, James Gandolfini (three times, actually), Martin Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, and Hugh Laurie, so don’t count a repeat win by Buscemi.
Who should win: Buscemi, Cranston, and Hall are all great choices
Who will win: Given that “Breaking Bad” finally cracked the Best Ensemble category and had arguably its strongest season yet, I think it’s time for Cranston to win.
