There are a lot of actresses that are great, Magie Q is my favorite out of this, but there is only 1 correct answer : Tatiana Maslany. I cant imagine anyone else in Orphan Black, every character she plays is so special, so different & well played
You really cannot look beyond Tatiana Maslany. In the 20 Orphan Black episodes to date there hasn't been a single piece of poor acting or dialog from her, despite playing a dozen or so characters
Kerry Washington isn't far off and I'm sure she'll nab a win in a couple years. Stana Katic is superb but only when she has good material to work with -- something that isn't all that frequent on Castle unfortunately.
Not Kerry Washington, she already gets nominated and does not deserve it (I don't want to say its because she is black and we do not have enough leading black actresses on TV but that certainly helps, hopefully with new shows from superior actresses Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, Alfre Woodward, Angela Bassett and Halle Berry things will change) . Its all about the hype with her. Her performance is over the top, one note and completely unbelievable. Screaming or crying hysterically should not get you an Emmy, She looks like a lovely person but great actress IMO she is not.
Lena Headey and even though I haven't seen Orphan Black, I've heard that the main character actress Tatiana Maslany is really good at different roles so I think she should deserve to win an Emmy! Many have voted for her so it seems, what I've heard is true :)
Tatiana Maslany because she is hands down one of the best actresses on TV right now. Lana Parrilla because she is amazing at playing both Regina and the Evil Queen. Lena Headey because she makes you hate her so muc, utterly convincing as a villain.
Nina Dobrev deserves an Emmy for her work in TVD, she does every single character absolutely amazing and unique. Haven´t seen anyone do as many different characters as she does so different (Katherine, Elena, Amara, Emotionless Elena, etc.) And as a second choice, I chose Lana Parrilla, I love her in OUAT, she is really good.
Honestly most of these women do! Nina Dobrev and Tatiana Maslaney played so many great characters. Megan Follows and Adelaide Kane deserve a nomination these year! They are great playing together! On the other hand Kerry Washington and Emily VanCamp are great as well!
But the one and only Lana Parilla nailed it this season more than any of these girls!
Lana Parrilla because she is doing a brilliant job on OUAT. Tatiana Maslany because I am still amazed that someone can play so many distinctive characters on one show and do it as well as she does.
Do you know Tatiana Maslany? I love Nina Dobrev but she's only doing 3 characters and Tatiana's doing at least 10 so if the best actress is the one's doing the most characters the better choice would be Tatiana, even if I love like you Nina Dobrev and Lana Parilla, they're all perfect in their roles. :)
Connie, Kerry and Lena are the only ones who stood/stand even a faintest glimmer of a hope of winning Emmys for those particular shows. Everyone else needs to be on a different and/or better show.
From the poll I voted for Tatiana Maslany and Lana Parrilla, even though most of the actresses listed deserve a nom/win, I voted for those I think deserve it more. Actresses that are not on the poll but I would love to see get a nom/win at some point: Eva Green, Michelle Dockery and Emmy Rossum.
Lana Parrilla hands down. I chose her cause she has more challenges in OUAT than other actresses here and she's been doing a great job portraying the evil queen , and Regina. both characters have huge differences, but she manages to balance them the right way
Anna struggled a bit in S1, then improved in S2 and by S3 she was just outstanding. She played so many different versions of herself and did it so greatly that sometimes I believed Fauxlivia was being played by a completely different actress. She also made an outstanding impression of Leonard Nimoy when she was playing William Bell. She was Tatiana Maslany before it was cool xD (Tatiana is outstanding too, and she should get an emmy too, but I think Anna Torv could have took on that role and Orphan Black would have been just as good)
Just needed to clarify; but yeah, Anna Torv is one of the best actresses I've seen on TV! The display of different emotions, the way she moves with every character, so distintc and so especial makes me wonder why she wasn't even nominated. I always respected- and admire- the actresses that actually got nominated for emmys, but in S3 of Fringe I would have taken out Mariska Hargarita (as amazing as she is) and put Anna Torv there so she could win the emmy.
Spot on! She was so robbed in S3. I mean the episodes "Olivia" "Entrada" "Marionnette" "Bloodline" were more than emmy worthy. And the end of "Os" with Bellivia!! The good old time!
Also add Anna Torv. Honestly, Anna Torv, Tatiana Maslany and Nina Dobrev all do an amazing job at fleshing out multiple characters. Of them all I'd go with Anna because I feel more intensely with her characters than with Maslany or Dobrev, but I won't deny that both of those actresses are incredibly (and I would give the edge to Maslany over Dobrev, but the line is very thin)
Marionnette was surely emmy worthy, the scene where she is freaking out in her apartment was one of the best acting moments of the 2010-2011 TV season. Bloodline would have been a very good second choice
Oh sorry, I just saw there was another Anna! Regarding Fringe and the Emmys, you know at the end it's the same with John Noble. I'm still flabbergasted he wasn't nominated considering he actually deserved to win!
Oh my god! I'm still mad at that! Even though I always thought Anna deserved AT LEAST a nomination, John Noble simply owned it. Seriously, episodes like "Peter", "White Tulip", "6:02 AM", "Worlds Apart" and "Black Blotter" were all enough to wipe out every other nominee! And that includes the utterly awesome Peter Dinklage! I will never forgive the emmys for snubbing him while he worked on Fringe
I'm telling you! Everyone praised him on Fringe like Tatiana and yet, he didn't get anything from the emmys. I mean when you see the difference of Walter/Walternate, the way he played them. I mean everything he did was perfect. It's a shame. Really.
Random thought: which of these actresses could tackle Tatiana Maslany's role on Orphan Black? I'd say mainly Anna Torv and Nina Dobrev because they have vast experience with multiple characters, and probably Lana Parrilla too (though it would be weird to see her playing Tatina's characters, yet it could be really delightful!)
Undoubtedly Lana Parrilla. Her performance in OUAT, both as the Evil Queen and as Regina, is absolutely outstanding and so touching. She has managed to reveal all the layers and the complexity of the character in such a powerful and emotional way, which hits the audience straight to the heart. Honestly, it's a real blessing and joy to watch her. She should have won an Emmy already and she definitely must win one in the future. Thank you Lana!
On this list I'm going to go with Lana Parrilla she truly deserves an Emmy after all of the amazing performances that she made this season. Kerry Washington is a bad actress I'm sorry, she's just overrated. if season 3 as a whole has been like impetus and execution then I would've also said Emily vancamp, but season 3 has just been downright terrible. Hopefully season 4 will have better writing. I know that Emily vancamp is a good actress but the show just needs to be written better.
I voted for TM and Anna Torv and I'd like to point out that the former has shown to be an exceptional and talented shapeshifting actress herself. I would consider her a deserving "foremother" to the previous one ;)
Tatiana Maslany & Anna Torv! Both handled several characters in such amazing way, they could perform a whole evolving life story through so much more than just body language... If they don't deserve an Emmy, I think no one does!
Tatiana Maslany for sure. And Elizabeth Mitchell (but she already got a nomination for primetime Emmy. Anyway, she should get one for best actress in drama series for LOST... but now it's over.... anyway, she should have won).
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
Hard choice. I want to vote for Nina Dobrev, Tatiana Maslany, Maggie Q, Lena Headley. They all deserve it!
ReplyDeleteStana Katic!!!
ReplyDeleteMaggie Q.
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of actresses that are great, Magie Q is my favorite out of this, but there is only 1 correct answer : Tatiana Maslany. I cant imagine anyone else in Orphan Black, every character she plays is so special, so different & well played
ReplyDeleteTatiana Maslany is an exceptionally actresses, each character she's portraying seems so individual, you forget she's playing all of them :)
ReplyDeleteYou really cannot look beyond Tatiana Maslany. In the 20 Orphan Black episodes to date there hasn't been a single piece of poor acting or dialog from her, despite playing a dozen or so characters
ReplyDeleteKerry Washington isn't far off and I'm sure she'll nab a win in a couple years. Stana Katic is superb but only when she has good material to work with -- something that isn't all that frequent on Castle unfortunately.
Tatiana, Nina, Lena or Maggie I think really deserve it. Lena probably has the highest chance out of them though.
ReplyDeleteEmmy Rossum
ReplyDeleteLana Parrilla!
ReplyDeleteNot Kerry Washington, she already gets nominated and does not deserve it (I don't want to say its because she is black and we do not have enough leading black actresses on TV but that certainly helps, hopefully with new shows from superior actresses Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, Alfre Woodward, Angela Bassett and Halle Berry things will change) .

ReplyDeleteHer performance is over the top, one note and completely unbelievable. Screaming or crying hysterically should not get you an Emmy, She looks like a lovely person but great actress IMO she is not.
Lana Parrilla is truly deserving of an Emmy,its long overdue!
ReplyDeleteLena Headey and even though I haven't seen Orphan Black, I've heard that the main character actress Tatiana Maslany is really good at different roles so I think she should deserve to win an Emmy! Many have voted for her so it seems, what I've heard is true :)
ReplyDeleteTatiana Maslany, Lena Headley and Lana Parilla of those choices.
ReplyDeleteTatiana Maslany because she is hands down one of the best actresses on TV right now. Lana Parrilla because she is amazing at playing both Regina and the Evil Queen. Lena Headey because she makes you hate her so muc, utterly convincing as a villain.
ReplyDeleteYou only need to watch a single episode, any episode, to see why Tatiana Maslany deserves an Emmy
ReplyDeleteNina Dobrev deserves an Emmy for her work in TVD, she does every single character absolutely amazing and unique. Haven´t seen anyone do as many different characters as she does so different (Katherine, Elena, Amara, Emotionless Elena, etc.) And as a second choice, I chose Lana Parrilla, I love her in OUAT, she is really good.
ReplyDeleteTatiana Maslany's work on Orphan Black is simply mind-blowing. She should have already got an Emmy.
ReplyDeleteHonestly most of these women do! Nina Dobrev and Tatiana Maslaney played so many great characters.
ReplyDeleteMegan Follows and Adelaide Kane deserve a nomination these year! They are great playing together!

Tatiana Maslany, no doubt

ReplyDeleteMaggie Q, Lana Parrilla, Anna Torv, Tatiana Maslany, Connie.
ReplyDeleteand a Golden Globe ...
ReplyDeleteLana Parrilla and Tatiana Maslany
ReplyDeleteAnna torv and Lena Headey easily. Both so incredible
ReplyDeleteFrom the poll I voted for Tatiana Maslany and Lana Parrilla, even though most of the actresses listed deserve a nom/win, I voted for those I think deserve it more. Actresses that are not on the poll but I would love to see get a nom/win at some point: Eva Green, Michelle Dockery and Emmy Rossum.
ReplyDeleteLana Parrilla & Tatiana Maslany both are crazy talented
ReplyDeleteLana Parrilla hands down. I chose her cause she has more challenges in OUAT than other actresses here and she's been doing a great job portraying the evil queen , and Regina. both characters have huge differences, but she manages to balance them the right way
ReplyDeleteStanaaaaa !!!
ReplyDeleteThe most obvious choice is not even in the list, Emmy Rossum should've won every season, She has done an amazing job on Shameless from the pilot.
ReplyDeleteMany talented actress here but I'd pick Tatiana Maslany and Anna Torv.
ReplyDeleteLena Headey and Anna Torv..
ReplyDeleteAnna struggled a bit in S1, then improved in S2 and by S3 she was just outstanding. She played so many different versions of herself and did it so greatly that sometimes I believed Fauxlivia was being played by a completely different actress.

ReplyDeleteRegarding Fringe and the Emmys, you know at the end it's the same with John Noble. I'm still flabbergasted he wasn't nominated considering he actually deserved to win!
Let me go start Fringe again.
ReplyDeleteI miss this show so much. 😢
Oh my god! I'm still mad at that!
ReplyDeleteEven though I always thought Anna deserved AT LEAST a nomination, John Noble simply owned it. Seriously, episodes like "Peter", "White Tulip", "6:02 AM", "Worlds Apart" and "Black Blotter" were all enough to wipe out every other nominee! And that includes the utterly awesome Peter Dinklage!
I will never forgive the emmys for snubbing him while he worked on Fringe
Same here; it is my favorite show of all time, there hasn't been a show that could take its crown (though GoT surely is close at times)
ReplyDeleteI'm telling you! Everyone praised him on Fringe like Tatiana and yet, he didn't get anything from the emmys. I mean when you see the difference of Walter/Walternate, the way he played them. I mean everything he did was perfect. It's a shame. Really.
ReplyDeleteGoT is also my new show. This cast is something else has well! Peter is just... Charles Dance, Lena and the list goes on and on.

ReplyDeleteI'd say mainly Anna Torv and Nina Dobrev because they have vast experience with multiple characters, and probably Lana Parrilla too (though it would be weird to see her playing Tatina's characters, yet it could be really delightful!)
Anna Torv.
ReplyDeleteLana Parrilla and Tatiana Maslany!
ReplyDeleteTatiana Maslany and Lana Parilla !
ReplyDeleteLana of course
ReplyDeleteOn a whole season one of Fringe struggled a bit..except for John character he nailed it from the get go.
ReplyDeleteUndoubtedly Lana Parrilla. Her performance in OUAT, both as the Evil Queen and as Regina, is absolutely outstanding and so touching. She has managed to reveal all the layers and the complexity of the character in such a powerful and emotional way, which hits the audience straight to the heart. Honestly, it's a real blessing and joy to watch her. She should have won an Emmy already and she definitely must win one in the future. Thank you Lana!
ReplyDeleteLana!!!
ReplyDeleteI really hope Lana is nominated for Supporting actress this year. She really deserves it!!!

ReplyDeleteTatiana Maslany without question. Anna Torv is all pretty spectacular.
ReplyDeleteNo doubt about it, Lana Parrilla. That woman is just an absolutely tremendous actress and she's definitely proved it on OUAT.
ReplyDeleteLana and Madeleine
ReplyDeleteTATIANA!!!
ReplyDeletelana of course
ReplyDeleteAnna Torv's work on Fringe, and Lana Parilla's work on Once Upon a Time, are both very deserving of Emmy's.
ReplyDeleteEmily VanCamp, Tatiana Maslany, Stana Katic
ReplyDeleteLana Parrilla. She is perfect!
ReplyDeleteMonica Potter!!! #Parenthood
ReplyDeleteTatiana Maslany & Anna Torv! Both handled several characters in such amazing way, they could perform a whole evolving life story through so much more than just body language... If they don't deserve an Emmy, I think no one does!
ReplyDeleteTatiana Maslany for sure!
ReplyDeleteAnd... Elizabeth Mitchell, for Lost.
ReplyDeleteTatiana Maslany for sure. And Elizabeth Mitchell (but she already got a nomination. Anyway, she should have won).
