Emmy Nominees: Best Guest Actress in a Comedy Series


My predictions: 4/6, picking Sarah Jessica Parker and Elizabeth Banks over Jones and Shannon

I did much better than last year in this race, foreseeing repeat nominations for Melissa McCarthy (Saturday Night Live), former nominee Elaine Stritch (30 Rock), and former series regular and current host Kristen Wiig (Saturday Night Live). I guess Sarah Jessica Parker didn’t go over well on “Glee,” paving the way for a repeat nomination for Dot-Marie Jones (Glee) instead. I haven’t yet Melissa Leo (Louie), but that was expected, and I’m thrilled about the inclusion of Molly Shannon (Enlightened), another superb element of a unique show gone too soon. More analysis to follow when I’ve seen all of the nominees.

Who should win? I’ve just seen two of these, so no comment yet.
Who will win? Probably Stritch, but maybe McCarthy
