Supporting Actress in a Drama Series is going to be a tough category to hash out. Emmy favorite Maggie Smith (Downton Abbey) returns, unopposed by two-time winner Anna Gunn, as does perennial nominee Christine Baranski (The Good Wife). Smith has already won twice for the role before being stopped when Anna Gunn won twice for…
The Emmy season is in high gear as the best of the small screen competes for ratings and gold. This year, we've seen some unprecedented rule changes that'll make this year one to remember.

Isn't it refreshing to have a year where an actress category is actually competitive? Lead Actress in a Drama Series was won by the same two women for the past 4 years, but with Homeland on the downswing and last year's winner Julianna Margulies (The Good Wife) having to rely on submissions tapes, this year is especially open for a new…
The precursor awards of the Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild Awards, and Critics' Choice Awards tend not to affect the outcome of the Emmys. However, this year the race for Lead Actor in a Drama Series is looking to go to the winner of at least two of those awards. Kevin Spacey (House of Cards)…

UPDATED 6/15/15 For Best Drama Series, we're definitely going to see the perennial nominees like Game of Thrones, Mad Men, Downton Abbey, and House of Cards. However, the rest of the category is going to look pretty different from the past. One of the major effects of the new rule changes is going to be the introduction of Orange is…
We have an interesting situation in the category for Best Cinematography. The last five winners were Life of Pi, Hugo, Gravity, Avatar, and Inception. So, the easy prediction is for the visual effects driven film. However, we don't have one this year. Instead there's the single-take Birdman, black and white Ida, symmetrical The Grand Budapest Hotel, period drama Mr. Turner, and Roger Deakins' Unbroken. The easy…
