Emmy Nominees: Best Lead Actor in a Drama Series
My predictions: 5/6, picking Steve Buscemi over Bonneville
As soon as I heard Hugh Bonneville (Downton Abbey) announced as the first nominee, I knew that my prediction for subdued enthusiasm for that show wouldn’t come true. The casualty for his unnecessary inclusion is that Steve Buscemi got snubbed for the best year of that show, which is a real shame. Two newbies, Jeff Daniels (The Newsroom) and Kevin Spacey (House of Cards), made the cut, with the latter show edging out the former considerably with a handful of nominations, while Daniels was one of the only things about his show recognized. Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad), Jon Hamm (Mad Men), and Damian Lewis (Homeland) were back with just about as much force as ever. This is one competitive category.
Who should win? I’ve only seen two episodes of Spacey’s show yet (I’ll catch up soon), but so far I’d say Cranston, Hamm, or Lewis
Who will win? Spacey
