Golden Globe Winner Predictions: Best Actor in a TV Series – Drama


The competition: Bryan Cranston’s meth cooker (Breaking Bad), Liev Schreiber’s Hollywood fixer (Ray Donovan), Michael Sheen’s forward-thinking doctor (Masters of Sex), Kevin Spacey’s corrupt politician (House of Cards), and James Spader’s scenery-chewing criminal (The Blacklist).

For your information: Last year, there were four returning nominees, and this year there are four new faces. Four-time nominee Cranston is very popular, and this is his last shot at a win. Spacey and Spader have been nominated in the past for other projects. Schreiber and Sheen are new to the list for their Showtime series, though Schreiber was previously nominated for TV movie “RKO 281.” Four times in the past six years, this award has gone to the star of a freshman series, which means that Cranston has quite the competition. “Breaking Bad,” “House of Cards,” and “Masters of Sex” are all nominated for Best TV Series – Drama.

Who should win? Schreiber, but Cranston and Spacey are good too.

Who will win? It’s hard to pick. I’ll go with Schreiber.
