Drama Series is pretty much done for me. A lot of people are going to say True Detective can win, Game of Thrones can win, House of Cards can win, but Breaking Bad will win.
Although my confidence was a bit shaken when True Detective hauled in 4 awards at the Creative Arts Emmys, I still believe Breaking Bad is close to a lock. It hasn't shown many signs of strength thus far, but it also hasn't shown any signs of weakness. It again won Picture Editing as it did last year, but most pundits expected the show to win most of its awards at the main ceremony. With the powerful buzz around the final season, its increase in nominations, and nominations in key categories give Breaking Bad all it needs to pull off a win.
If there was an alternative, it would be True Detective. Before the Creative Arts Emmys, I would have said that House of Cards was the alternate choice. It is probably one of the biggest cultural phenomenons since Breaking Bad went off air and it received surprise nominations in the guest and writing categories. However, following its already impressive success, True Detective is the clear alternative.
1. Breaking Bad
