We're continuing with Supporting Drama Actor & Actress and since we have manors here at SpoilerTV it's ladies first. Personally I think this is one of the hardest choices.
You can choose up to six people in each category. Also, who do you think should be nominated and who do you think will be nominated?
Sound off below in the comments after you've voted.
For comparison here are last year's nominees:
Archie Panjabi (The Good Wife) - Winner
Rose Byrne (Damages)
Christina Hendricks (Mad Men)
Sharon Gless (Burn Notice)
Elisabeth Moss (Mad Men)
Christine Baranski (The Good Wife)
You can still vote in previous polls:
Lead Actor & Actress in a Drama Series
Lead Actor & Actress in a Comedy Series


I voted for Christine Baranski, but I think Michelle Forbes will win.
ReplyDeleteVoted for:
ReplyDeleteChristina Hendricks (Mad Men)Christine Baranski (The Good Wife)
Archie Panjabi (The Good Wife)Margo Martindale (Justified)
Michelle Forbes (The Killing)Amy Ryan (In Treatment) - Again, not sure if she counts as a lead or as a supporting
I voted for Margo Martindale idk any of the other ladies but Margo was great on Justified
ReplyDeleteI agree, she was amazing
ReplyDeleteI like Jennifer Carpenter and Christina Hendricks for this, although I admit I haven't seen a lot of the shows these actrices play in.

ReplyDeleteMichelle Forbes was just terrific on The Killing, if she doesn't win an Emmy for this, I'd be disappointed.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Archie Panjabi from "The Good Wife" ;)
ReplyDeleteMargo Martindale gets my vote!
ReplyDeleteSandra Oh, Christine Baranski, Sharon Gless and Michelle Forbes are my picks.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Lisa Edelstein should be nominated. While her character got a lot of air and storytime, not to mention skin time, I cringed at her scenes.
Sara Ramirez should definitely be up for an emmy nom!
ReplyDeleteSara Ramirez (Grey's Anatomy)
ReplyDeleteJessica Capshaw (Grey's Anatomy)
For me it's between Margo Martindale and Michelle Forbes...
ReplyDeleteMichelle Forbes (The Killing)
ReplyDeleteSandra Oh (Grey's Anatomy)
Margo Martingale — Justified.
ReplyDeleteJennifer Carpenter — Dexter.
Kelly MacDonald — Boardwalk Empire.
Michelle Forbes — The Killing.
Margo Martingale owned her role in Justified. I did not recognize the same actress I saw on Dexter (she guest-starred on the show during the first 3 seasons), that proves she did a tremendous job.
Jennifer Carpenter deserves a nomination as well. I really think she improved her acting skills over the years on Dexter. Perhaps it's because her character gains more importance as time goes by or because the material is different and more appropriate for her to show her talent (in season 4 for instance, Deb was in the middle of some powerful, dramatic scenes). In season 5, she was important & had some great material as well. She would have deserved to win last year but I don't mind if she wins next September.
Michelle Forbes is a great actress as wel, she deserves recognition not only for her role in The Killing but also for all the great roles she had in great shows before. She always chooses the best series to work on : she starred in some seasons of Homicide, 24, In Treatment, Durham County, True Blood, and she appeared in BSG, Lost and Alias, that's quite a résumé.
Kelly MacDonald did a great job on Boardwalk Empire, standing up for/to Nucky. That's the only actress on my list I'm sure will actually get nominated, and I wouldn't mind at all if she were to win that Emmy, but she's not my favourite either.
Should get nominated as well :
- Amy Ryan — Adele in In Treatment.
- Jurnee Smollett — Jess in Friday Night Lights.
- Laura Linney — Sophia on The Event.
- Maggie Siff — Tara in Sons of Anarchy.
- Holliday Grainger — Lucrezia in The Borgias.
- Lauren Hodges — Tanya in Rubicon.
Margo Martindale - Justified (Deserves the Win)
ReplyDeleteKelly McDonald - Boardwalk Empire
Michelle Forbes - The Killing (contender if Martindale does not win)
Julia Stiles - Dexter
Michelle Fairley (Catelyn Stark) - Game of Thrones
Jorja Fox from CSI has proven herself in the past 15 years that she is an enviable and formidable TV star. She can carry an entire episode and do it with great acting range. She deserves some love after all these years on prime time TV.
ReplyDeleteIs Lisa E not the lead actress in House?
ReplyDeleteshe's submitted herself as supporting actress
ReplyDeleteIf Julia Stiles get nominated I think I will shoot myself in the head.
ReplyDeleteI know a lot (the majority) of Dexter fans didn't like her but I thought the season and her performance were great!
ReplyDeleteSorry, but what about Anna Torv?
ReplyDeleteCarpenter, MacDonald, Strickland, Martindale, Forbes, and Gless.
ReplyDeleteThis category is full of so many great performances this year.
Eva Longoria - Desperate Housewives
ReplyDeleteShe's a lead actress, not supporting.
ReplyDeleteI'm voting Grace Park from Hawaii Five-0
ReplyDeleteI guess even she realizes she's less important than House on House. Ha!
ReplyDeleteStana Katic - Castle
ReplyDeleteEasy,Lisa Edelstein.
ReplyDeleteSara Ramirez acted her butt off this year...I totally think she deserves the nom!
ReplyDeleteMaggie siff would be great she does an amazing job
ReplyDeleteKaDee Strickland has done a wonderful job this season and absolutely deserves at least a nomination
ReplyDeleteJane Lynch (Glee)
ReplyDeleteIn addition to my votes from the poll...
ReplyDeleteArchie Panjabi (The Good Wife)
Other - Jeri Ryan from Body Of Proof
ReplyDeleteThere is no such thing as the lead actress on this show, Hugh Laurie is the only lead.
ReplyDeleteLisa Edelstein for me too
ReplyDeleteI voted for KaDee Strickland because she did an amazing job this year and I think Sara Ramirez and Kate Walsh should be nominated too.
ReplyDeleteRobin Tunney (The Mentalist)
ReplyDeleteRobin Tunney (The Mentalist), she really deserves it
ReplyDeleteRobin Tunney (The Mentalist), she really deserves it
ReplyDeleteHey and Robin Tunney? At least she deserves a nomination here XD
ReplyDeleteArchie Panjabi from The Good Wife
ReplyDeleteWait, how come Archie Panjabi is not on your list?
ReplyDeleteMargo Martindale (Justified) *-*
ReplyDeleteSandra\ Oh of course, she's always awesome in her's Cristina's dramas, she rocks every season
ReplyDeleteYeah...Surely Sara Ramires, for the Musical Episode..and Sandra Oh for Cristina's drama from the beginning she always rocks and now Sara Ramires..Kate Walsh rocks too, but I don't think that she had all that drama
ReplyDeleteDitto! :D
ReplyDeleteOther by far... Cote de Pablo or Pauley Perrette from NCIS!
ReplyDeleteSara Ramirez (Grey's Anatomy)
ReplyDeleteVoted for Lisa Edelstein :) I really hope that she'll won this time :)
ReplyDeleteRobin Tunney (The Mentalist)
