Emmy Predictions: Best Guest Actress in a Drama Series


The 66th Primetime Emmy Awards nominations will be announced on Thursday, July 10th. 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: Linda Cardellini, Joan Cusack, Jane Fonda, Margo Martindale, Diana Rigg, Carrie Preston

The competition: One of these nominees, Cardellini, isn’t eligible this year, and Cusack is now contending in the corresponding comedy race. Watch out for the other four - Jane Fonda (The Newsroom), Margo Martindale (The Americans), Carrie Preston (The Good Wife), and Diana Rigg (Game of Thrones) – to potentially repeat. Other awards magnets are in the running this year, including Patricia Arquette (Boardwalk Empire), Marcia Gay Harden (The Newsroom), Allison Janney (Masters of Sex), and Lisa Kudrow (Scandal). Other contenders include Charlotte Rampling (Dexter), Kate Mara (House of Cards), Julianne Nicholson (Masters of Sex), Amy Smart (Justified), and Alicia Witt (Justified).

The predicted nominees: Marcia Gay Harden, Allison Janney, Lisa Kudrow, Margo Martindale, Julianne Nicholson, Carrie Preston

The predicted winner: Janney
