Damages
You've been weighing in on who should win Emmy honours and now that the lead guys have had their turn, I want you to cast your vote on the ladies. Let's begin with the drama category. This year brings in new blood, as Mad Men's January Jones and Friday Night Lights star Connie Britton both enter the competition.
We're breaking down this year's Emmy nominees, one category at a time, and today it's time to turn our attention to the lead actress in a drama category. Will it be a veteran nominee, or one of the deserving new faces to the race? We'll find out in less than a week.
The Emmy prediction fun continues today as we shift through the category honouring women in a dramatic supporting role. There's a few veterans mixed in with some notable newbies: Damages' Rose Byrne scored her second nod, alongside Elisabeth Moss who received the honour a second year in a row for Mad Men. Her costar Christina Hendricks is joining the category for the first time, as is Christine Baranski and Archie Panjabi for The Good Wife.
We've already worked our way through the supporting actors up for Emmys in the drama and comedy categories, but it's time to let the ladies have their turn. There are definitely a few frontrunners for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama—as for a clear winner? It's hard to tell.
We've put in our picks for the Best Supporting Actor in a Drama category at this year's Emmys and now it's your turn to take a swing. There's certainly a great cast of characters to consider: Terry O'Quinn as Lost's John Locke, John Slattery as Mad Men's Roger Sterling, Martin Short as Leonard on Damages, Andre Braugher as Owen on Men of a Certain Age, reigning champ Michael Emerson as Ben from Lost and finally Aaron Paul as Breaking Bad's Jesse. So who should win?
The 2010 Emmy Awards are just 14 days away and we hear at Sugar HQ are rather buzzed about the whole shindig. As soon as the nominations were announced, we started thinking about our list of top contenders in each category—and now we've got the full breakdown of likely winners. First up: Supporting actor in a drama series.
All the talk today has been about the Primetime Emmy nominations and after ruminating a bit, I've got a few reactions to and opinions about the nominees. I've already given you my initial reactions in the comedy categories, so now I'd like to look on the more serious side in the drama department and share my own personal cheers and jeers.
- Things that make me go hmm: the True Blood shutout.
Rose Byrne and fellow Aussie actor Brendan Cowell have called it quits after nearly seven years together. The two split last month right before the Golden Globes. On the red carpet Rose posed with her co-star Tate Donovan and at the time, I wondered why her boyfriend wasn’t with her.
Rose Byrne is the third Aussie nominated for a 2010 Golden Globe and to be perfectly honest, she's not our strongest chance at a gong. Recognised for her supporting role on theTV series Damages, Rose is, at best, an outside chance.
This is Rose's second Golden Globe nomination for Damages—her first was in 2007.
