SAG Nominees: Best Ensemble in a Drama Series


My predictions: 4/5, missing “Ozark
Who’s missing? Westworld, Pose, Killing Eve, Homecoming, Succession

I only missed one nominee here, and that was Ozark, a show I don’t particularly like but can appreciate for its range of talent. It’s the surprise top drama nominee today, with individual bids for Jason Bateman, Laura Linney, and, most excitingly, Julia Garner. No freshmen made the cut here, with that show joining two other already established series, The Americans and Better Call Saul, earning their first nominations. The former made the cut even without either of its stars recognized, and I’m particularly happy for the latter, which has too many times not been honored for its great cast. Despite Golden Globe snubs in the top race, The Handmaid’s Tale and last year’s winner here, This Is Us, are both back.

Who will win? I think that The Handmaid’s Tale gets it, but it could be any of these.
