My numbers were just an example, but my thinking is that no matter how many voters each of the six nominees receive, Cox and Strong will be at the top, and therefore, one of them will win.

I’m not giving weight to any numbers we mentioned, just wanted to comment on your post suggesting a third option would get the same (or similar) percentage w…[Read more]

Except no one is actually ranking them, right? Not on the ballot, at least. The way I see it, considering how well Succession did, it’s either Cox or Strong even with vote-splitting. Say both get a certain percentage of the votes. As both of them are the biggest (and maybe only) frontrunners in the category, I don’t see a third option comi…[Read more]

The male Succession actors dominating the lead and supporting categories suggests possible vote-splitting, but in that scenario there isn’t a likely contender to emerge. Who benefits?

Considering The Handmaid’s Tale bombing, Better Call Saul losing steam and Ozark unable to get Pelphrey, I believe Smith-Cameron was ninth.

I’ll go out on a limb and say Seehorn wins here.

By the way, did voting begin?

My first impression is that Drama Actress is between Linney and Colman. It seems like voters didn’t see Ozark‘s latest season, but they managed to get Linney nominated over Kidman, Moss and Davis. Colman, on the other hand, is very disliked on these forums, which makes me consider her a threat.

Before yesterday, I was thinking either Cox or…[Read more]

Initial Predictions

Watchmen
Regina King
Paul Mescal
Yahya Abdul-Mateen II
Jean Smart
Little Fires Everywhere
Watchmen

I see that the new narrative around here is that voters haven’t actually seen Succession, but still voted for nine actors. People really go the extra mile to say something against a show.

It was obvious it would turn out this way, but as quoted in the previous comment, the show is indeed Simon’s most accessible project. The way I see it, HBO already had a major limited series player and didn’t bother campaigning this one. I’m not saying that it would’ve gotten a number of nominations if Watchmen stayed in drama or wasn’t eligible a…[Read more]

I think even fans of Ozark will agree with this, the show getting TWO cinematography nominations is ridiculous.

I’ll admit that I was a bit biased towards Seehorn, but for the first time she actually had buzz, a spring season and then a TCA nomination. But I didn’t get too carried away, which is why I only had her seventh.

I forgot to mention before the surprises I predicted:
Yvonne Orji
Jeffrey Wright
Paul Mescal
Abdul-Mateen II/Gossett Jr.
Dolly…[Read more]

Carell was nominated so our theory of first/last season winners isn’t over!

Not to gloat, but I’ve been saying that Mbatha-Raw is a GD bubble and that McTeer won’t make it.

The argument that The Handmaid’s Tale managed to get a bunch of nominations for three episodes was ridiculous. As if voters knew they were voting for only three episodes. The show was airing ineligible episodes during voting period and they had effect on the nominations.

As I’ve said before, it aired a year ago and it is competing now for the…[Read more]

I quite accidentally predicted a Corden snub in favor of Kimmel for Variety Talk Series and got 5/5 in the category. Honestly, the 100/1 odds on Kimmel were irresistible, lol. Do not overthink it is the point, I guess.

Speaking of Burgess, please someone change his horrible photo in the predictions center. Thank you.

So it’s safe to assume that even with quarantine restrictions, voters wouldn’t bother watching more? If Ozark was seen and loved as the users on these forums, Pelphrey would’ve been able to overcome his non-visibility and easily get in. Instead, they nominated Killing Eve in Series for a horrendous season and Wright for a season he did nothing in.…[Read more]

It’s not just Zendaya. I’ve also mentioned Braun because of the ballot placement, but no one would consider it. Ballot placement is a thing, apparently.

And to think that I couldn’t even mention Zendaya on these forums without being ridiculed just a few days ago.

The only two good things about SNL (Rudolph and Strong) were actually nominated.
