The overarching story of awards season this year has to be La La Land's dominance from beginning to end. After winning a record-breaking seven Golden Globes and tying the record for the most Oscar nominations with 14, it seemed that Best Picture was a done deal. And I think it probably is. Smart pundits will put…
It's no secret that Game of Thrones is the biggest and most popular series on television right now. You can't go to any water cooler in any given office in the United States without hearing something about what happened the previous night on the show. However, will that buzz translate to Emmys? Season Four of Game of Thrones has been arguably…
Refreshingly, Lead Actress in a Drama Series is the more competitive of the lead categories on the drama side. However, there doesn't seem to be much movement from last year's group. Reigning champ Viola Davis ("How to Get Away with Murder") is sure to return along with last year's near winner Taraji P. Henson ("Empire"). After them, Robin Wright…

However, I think there is room for a lot of movement in the category especially…
Five of last year's Emmys' Drama Series nominees should make it back in. Which one will be left off? Drama Series is a category that probably won’t have a lot of movement from last year’s line-up. Of course, Mad Men is out of the way which opens up a spot, but barring a huge shock,…
It's sad to think that one of the greatest filmmakers of our time has a lowly three Oscar nominations to his name. Wes Anderson has delivered such memorable films as Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, and Moonrise Kingdom, the latter of which was his most recent chance to win that piece of hardware that Hollywood is so hung up on.…
This year, Limited Series is a surprisingly competitive category this year. There are feasibly nine legitimate competitors for the five slots. At the top of the list is FX's "The People vs. O.J. Simpson". They are going to feasibly be the nominations leader with multiple nominations in each category and it has the cultural clout that…
