SAG Winner Predictions: Best Ensemble in a Comedy Series

The competition: The nerdy scientists of “The Big Bang Theory,” the dynamic duo of “Key and Peele,” the household units of “Modern Family,” the inmates and guards of “Orange is the New Black,” the disjointed family members of “Transparent,” and the political operators of “Veep.”

For your information: Two shows are new to this race: “Key and Peele,” which only has two cast members credited, and “Transparent.” Last year’s winner, “Orange is the New Black,” is back for its second nomination. “The Big Bang Theory” is on its fifth nomination, and “Veep” is on its third. “Modern Family” this year earns its seventh nomination, and it won four times in a row. Each show except for “Key and Peele” has exactly one individual actor nominated. I think the only time a show won without any actors nominated was “Glee” in 2009, but I wouldn’t expect “Key and Peele” to win in any version of events.

Who should win: “Orange is the New Black,” “Veep,” or “Transparent”

Who will win: I would go with “Transparent,” but I think that either “Orange is the New Black” will repeat or Veep will win for the first time.
