Emmy Nominees: Best Guest Actor in a Comedy Series


My predictions: 3/6

I’ll admit that I’ve seen just two of these performances this year, so I plenty of catching up to do. With Will Arnett mysteriously omitted, Bobby Cannavale (Nurse Jackie) is the lone returning nominee, and he’s also nominated in the drama supporting race this year. Will Forte (30 Rock) is a great choice to represent his show, and I’m surprised that Nathan Lane (Modern Family), also nominated in the drama guest actor race, made the cut over Matthew Broderick. Hosting a variety series is a surefire way to a nomination, as returning nominee Justin Timberlake (Saturday Night Live) and Louis C.K. (Saturday Night Live), netting another staggering total for individual nominations, prove. Rounding out the race is Bob Newhart (The Big Bang Theory), who should have been on my radar as an obvious choice.

Who should win? No comment just yet
Who will win? Newhart or C.K.
