Golden Globe Winner Predictions: Best Actress in a TV Series – Comedy/Musical


The competition: Zooey Deschanel’s bubbly schoolteacher (New Girl), Lena Dunham’s spirited twentysomething (Girls), Edie Falco’s sarcastic nurse (Nurse Jackie), Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ sarcastic vice-president (Veep), and Amy Poehler’s government employee (Parks & Recreation).

For your information: This list is extremely familiar, since it’s made up of four out of five of last year’s nominees and a past nominee, Falco, subbing in for Tina Fey, whose show has ended. Deschanel and Poehler earned their third nominations, while Louis-Dreyfus and Dunham are back for the second time in a row. Dunham was last year’s winner for the first season of her show. Both “Girls” and “Parks and Recreation” are nominated for Best TV Series – Comedy/Musical.

Who should win? Deschanel, Louis-Dreyfus, and Poehler

Who will win? I think it’s time for either Louis-Dreyfus or Poehler with no obvious frontrunner.
