The 65th Primetime Emmy Awards nominations will be announced on Thursday, July 18th. Please refer to my Emmy musings for this category for a detailed analysis of the contenders, and, as always, chime in below in the comments with any thoughts of your own.
Last year’s nominees: Will Arnett, Bobby Cannavale, Jimmy Fallon, Michael J. Fox, Jon Hamm, Greg Kinnear
The competition: Expect to see a handful of familiar faces in this category. Will Arnett (30 Rock) is all but guaranteed this year, and the other eligible returning nominee, Bobby Cannavale (Nurse Jackie), is a decent bet too. I’d suggest looking through recent Emmy archives to find the other nominees, which might include Justin Timberlake (Saturday Night Live), Fred Willard (Modern Family), Mike O’Malley (Glee), and Nathan Lane (Modern Family). New roles this year that are likely to garner attention are Louis C.K. (Saturday Night Live) and Matthew Broderick (Modern Family), and also maybe Martin Short (Saturday Night Live), Rob Reiner (New Girl), and Patrick Wilson (Girls). I’d love to see Patton Oswalt (Parks and Recreation) follow Michael J. Fox as a double guest acting nominee, but I doubt that’s likely to happen.
The predicted nominees: Will Arnett, Matthew Broderick, Bobby Cannavale, Louis C.K., Justin Timberlake, Fred Willard
The predicted winner: C.K.
